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

Thanks so much Ben, for all the hard work and the feedback. I was a bit loose in my own judgement, now hearing what would have been important to you. Trying to return a little feedback. Synths would have needed from me thoughts, that a producer should have. I had bussed all kb together and put a Foc...

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

Not me! :lol: ahaha... great!! :smile: I think you should be safe top 5. for the "analog" feeling I think it's a bit many different sources of distortion. you might consider to dump a few of the devices and try this one instead: https://wavearts.com/products/plugins/tube-saturator-vintage...

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

Tracks are 2.52.235
Probably everyone has reverb tails on the last guitar tone anyway.
I didn't zoom in enough and faded out 0.4s early.
That's after like 10 seconds of final sound decay in the whole guitar recording.

BTW, EZ-CD can bulk-normalize on LUFS or SPL ReplayGain. [x] prevent clipping option. Uses parallel processing.

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

Thanks Mr. Fox for pointing to the "Production Techniques". I agree fully that everyone should study that, when not experienced already. I described my lazy and super fast take on that. My eyes are poor and i don't like meters. They make me very tired. I watch the red lights though. My lev...

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

I'm really sorry that there are no songs in the song pool, but there's nothing I can do about it. I want to ask the experienced ones how do you actually approach when you start mixing gain stage wise. My way is to normalize all the files in the project to -18 true peak db, in this way I am sure tha...

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

headphones is really very personal. this time here I made my first mix with X65, for me would improve the problems in frequency areas you mentioned. still learning to work with these. the way you do automation needs very fine mechanics. you can compare, I'm doing the opposite, I let it run very natu...

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

All of us need to find our individually best workarounds. To me, it means to apply the linear part of signal theory, though not all mixing engineers give priority to it. It says, that with a 24-bit resolution, you can change levels back and forth without losing too much (you do it within a 64-bit fl...

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

I try to make a mix that simply sounds like the song and not the mix.
when I hear the song, it's the song and it may fit or not fit in some playlist.
In this direction I seek to improve. Not there yet.

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

After randomly clicking into a mix here and there, my feedback to a number of the respected participants: I focus on aspects that could deserve a second thought, it's just in telegram style to keep it concise. humble opinion only. Pistolpete dry but full sound! comps are pushing some elements a bit ...
