Here's the deal with bass in mixes. If you reference any modern track with older music you'll find that all modern music is more bass heavy. The reason for this is simply that technology has changed over time. In the old days, when the primary (and only) means to reproduce music was vinyl, bass was...

On a side note: I'd like to encourage people while listening to all of these mixes, not to just run them back to back, one right after the other.

Thank you Jeroen for providing the tracks, thanks Mr. Fox for anything else! Here are my musical thoughts: I hear a dutch Rockband playing Golding Earring turning into Green Day. So I choosed these references. Maybe I got it a little bit. Mr.Rock'n'Roll Mixer screenshot MixBuss screenshot Here are s...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC099 August 2024 - Mix Round 1 in evaluation

I think the interesting part of this discussion is, where does mixing stop, and where does production start. If I get a song with electric guitars I will assume that the guitar player recorded distorted guitars where that was intended, and that chorus was used where that was applicable. I would not...

I'm nearly 100% your opinion!

Hi Mr. Fox, thank your for your hard and persistant work. But, sorry, I didn't use any additional harmonies. Maybe you hear "shimmerverb" and delay in the chorus. I tried hard to get the rules, cause, like everyone else, I got many additional ideas, which were not included in this task, an...

Hi everyone and thank you for this opportunity! Here are my thoughts and my submission: https://os5.mycloud.com/action/share/7c2a83af-176c-42b0-a093-097541a621b8 First I listened and I hear the guy is falling (in love). So I need a big space for a deep and long "falling" in the chorus. In ...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC098 June 2024 - Mix Round 1 in evaluation

If I remember correctly there was mention made in the notes about the noise floor potentially being an issue. Did anyone have an issue with this? :wink: Personally, I found the bass at the end had a little issue with noisy bits at the end, but I just put an instance of Klevgrand’s Brusfri on it and...
