Hi Everyone, Here's my entry for Mix Challenge 095. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jyrB_7PKw4wqRqVOQ4qLADoiGzQAwZ16/view?usp=sharing Thanks to the song provider and to the challenge organisers. In terms of mix style, I had one primary goal for the mix - achieve good separation between the sound so...

Tracks are 2.52.235
Probably everyone has reverb tails on the last guitar tone anyway.

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC094 October 2023 - Mix Round 1 in evaluation

Same for me too. The original mix is 2:55 and the notes also say that the song length is 2:55. However, all the raw tracks are listed as 2:52. This is all according to the macOS finder, but I think we can safely say that the original mix is slightly longer than the source files. Like those above I a...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC094 October 2023 - Mix Round 1 in evaluation

I think there is a mistake in the overview of the loudness specs. Hi Jeroen Just curious: what software did you use for your analysis? —Jeff I check the 'render stats' in Reaper when I render the mix. The readout says: peak -1.2dB (the mastermix meter in the projectfile peaks at 1.3dB left/right by...

"Broke the record, at least my record, of number of plugins in a snare, or any instrument for that matter."

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC093 August 2023 - Mix Round 1 in evaluation

Also, I think that @Mr Fox is having to do too much, chasing up people with messages, checking reuploads, etc.

I'm happy with the rules being applied strictly, and if that means I'm disqualified for something in the future then "so be it"!

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC093 August 2023 - Mix Round 1 in evaluation

Hi All, I noticed in the MC093_Statistics.pdf that I've been given a warning for my TP value being 0.99. That's interesting because I used the new Export Mixdown function in Studio One which allows you to set final file parameters. These were set to -16LUFS/-1.0TP. I also checked this after the expo...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC093 August 2023 - Mix Round 1 in evaluation

Anyway the point of all this is that throughout the mixing process I was wondering how can we do a thing like set a global vocal compression setting and similarly on other elements when this is such a blunt and almost disrespectful way to treat the music? Perhaps the constraints of time simply don'...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC093 August 2023 - Mix Round 1 in evaluation

I'd like to jump on here to point something out, as 10 minutes after uploading my mix I realized I'd made a mistake. However, due to the rules of no re-uploading, I left it as is and will just suck it up :hihi: But I figured I'd share as this is a learning community, and in the real world if I had ...
