Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC102 February 2025 - Mix Round 2 until 22-MAR-2025 23:59 UTC+1/CET

Thank you, @Edling for letting me advance to Round2 and your feedback! Here's my revision for the next stage . I have quite a similar impression of my R1 mix as you seem to have yourself, in that the energy was good but it needed a lot of cleanup in the bass and some revoicing of the mids (especiall...

It's not a big thing: duplicate a track, one for each section (verse/chorus) and delete the part you don't need in each duplicated track. I still don't fully understand. But I guess you're using something similar to a "bass trick" (parallel track, band-passed, distorted) for more flavor i...

Really, really nice track and a subject matter close to my heart. Thank you Edling (and Mr.Fox for the organizational efforts, as usual)! For me, this song is all about the transitions from verse to chorus and back. The chorus really steps up the energy and the mix needs to follow along to not mess ...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC101 December 2024 - Mix Round 2 until 09-JAN-2025 23:59 UTC+1/CET

Anyway @jw_, I've just listened to your mix and I do find it hard to pick out the specific things that @Mellow Browne was hearing. I like your mix, I would say well done for most of what you did. The one thing that I noticed immediately which I thought was a potential problem was the characteristic...

Tbh, I have a little trouble processing the feedback. This is NOT supposed to be a dig at you, Mellow Browne , your work is admirable and I cannot imagine having to listen to a million mixes over the course of this mix challenge. And I, of course, can only congratulate the top15, well done. But you ...

Link to my Mix Big thank you to MellowBrowne and Mr.Fox as usual. Used the 2nd Ref Mix as a basis, but I focussed on trying to keep some elements like bells and the choir a little more subdued and in the background, as I felt like my attention was being pulled away from the vocals too much. So here...

Last comment, I just saw that they had provided the voices without the reverb -.-” I didn't realize until it was too late to use them. Hey floodo , could you kindly direct me to them? Cannot seem to find them, neither in the Multitracks nor in any comments by JeroenZuiderwijk or Mister Fox . I kept...

Not seeing the error on my file name. Any suggestions? No spaces even though there are spaces in the name?
You're missing some doubling of underscores. Should be "MC098__Arnwyn__Robot_Baby__quaint twang.wav" instead of "MC098_Arnwyn_Robot_Baby_quaint twang.wav"
