I like my rock kicks too, but I think have to agree to disagree here as I don't think the song needs that sort of pumping, driving beater sound here.soetZA wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2019 12:53 CESTHi Chris thanks for the feedback, firstly we seem to disagree on the kick, I like that sort of kick sound on my rock music as for it being to loud that's
a easy fix. But I could change the sound too. I also definitely could fix summing to mono. The bass is not only in the sub frequency it was deliberately pulled back in the mix but also an easy fix if one was to want it more present. The guitars have FX on them but not delay I do not believe delayed
guitars were needed. Could add chorus? Listening to the mix again I needed to remove more mud, that's why summing to mono gets washed out.
There was no limiting just a small amount of transients that peak higher than the rest probably the kick in this case. I've heard a lot of mixes
and seen you commenting on mixes adding instruments to the song, this is mixing not production, if you were to release those mixes as a
final to your song these engineers would have to get be credited as producers and would also have to be compensated through royalties
if you were to release the track. Anyway it was fun mixing the track. Cheers
I think there's only 2 entries that added whole new parts, both disqualified as that wasn't the challenge. Some have reused a few parts in the song elsewhere which isn't the same as composing a new part. Please don't add chorus to guitars, I would imagine sone people will have noticed reading my comments how much I really don't like chorus used in sweeping amounts...
A lot of people keep seeming to think that it's my track and it's for release! It's not; I recorded this in May 2018 for their album and the band couldn't agree on the song as it's not normally played acoustically. We recorded it again October 2018 as they normally play it (faster, angrier, grittier basically, you can find it on Spotify if you were interested) and that version went on the album so I never went too far into working on it, hence the timing issues that still stood in the track.
If the band decide to use something that's down to them and the participant to agree on, nothing to do with either of us.
