Mix Challenge

In any case, im definitely grateful for the experience... The forum is not just for competition, a lot of it is about educational purposes. High respects I'm not working as a pro. But I was lucky to spend some time in a couple of established, fully equipped audio studios in the analog era. I would ...

Good luck to all the Round 2 participants, all the mixes that I've listened to sound great!

can't access your mix, but Manii is on dropbox too, and his I can open and listen to.

I'm not against any of these tools,
just when the graphics look like shown, I smell a problem and throw it on the table,
and it turned out an issue, there was just something unintended going on,
by human happenstance during hard and complex work. Eventually, it was corrected.
Case solved.

Hello, @White Punk OD , you are actually right, but I'll get to that later. Hello Tom, at first, merry Christmas to you and everyone, sorry if it came across a bit rude, but I hope you give me credit that I waited until after the decision, so it cannot have a hurtful impact. Thanks for your detaile...

To my knowledge, a mastering engineer would reject it, because anything he does would mess with the dynamics or balances in counterproductive ways, things are packed and boxed...

@cpsmusic I think it is a good idea, but it might also face difficulties, eg. if there is less commenting than desired anyway, those marks would not rush in with too much of diligence and decency. It might become neglected as well, but if not, OTOH I have seen in some forums, that there is possibili...

Hey, I know im little late, but since i worked on the mix quite a bit, (and really enjoyed it) I think it's one of the best mixes! Musically very pleasing. It has warmth in the mid-range, as far as I understood, it is what the client is preferring. Good electric guitars. Vocals on the natural side ...

thanks so much, this was really fast! yeah I need to do another roundtrip through the car stereo, my kick is always too loud in the first version. the waves vintage saturator for the vocal needs fine-tuning with the drive knob. it sounds so sexy you get carried away, then distorts too much. also, le...

Mister Fox, are you still working on the general overview? I can view only the listing of the unlucky.

How will "brickwalling" followed by volume reduction to specified LUFS be judged?
