Mix Challenge

Congratulations!!! Everybody did a great job. I've listened to the mixes and I understand how hard it was to pick a top 3. Thank you Ben for this opportunity and keeping the mix-challenge going.

Cheers,

Hi Ben, Here is my mix for round 2: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ahp8xH6KRIfbgwF0lNW4iDPg2eC4?e=SXS6Ha I didn’t want to loose any of the energy I already had in the mix. So a revision always feels kinda tricky in this case because there is no client feedback and the upload is final ;-) But I felt that my mix...

Thank you Ben! I'll be happy to use my wild-card for the second round. I already have got some ideas how to improve my mix.

And my compliments for the amount of work and time you must have spent giving feedback on all the mixes. Very detailed feedback! Great work.

Cheers,

Jeroen

Thank you very much for the explanation and information. It is confusion I must confess, but I'll see what I can do for the future with another analysing tool..... There is not much to confuse here. Most DAW only show the "sample accurate" digital peak (aka: dBFS), not "True Peak&quo...

I think there is a mistake in the overview of the loudness specs. Hi Jeroen Just curious: what software did you use for your analysis? —Jeff I check the 'render stats' in Reaper when I render the mix. The readout says: peak -1.2dB. That is why I am confused. I had no idea the readout was not accura...

Could you please check and comfirm that I am not disqualified? I just triple checked your entry. Wavelab 10.0.x (used for the batch analysis) Digital Peak L/R: -1,2 dBFS / -1,2 dBFS True Peak L/R: -1,1082 dBTP / -0,8882 dBTP LUFS: -16,0 LUFS ILk NUGEN Audio VisLM (ITU-R BS.1770-4 preset) True Peak ...

Hi Mr Fox, I think there is a mistake in the overview of the loudness specs. I checked and just now double checked and my mix peaks at -1.2dB max! I paid extra attention to it with my mix. Could you please check and comfirm that I am not disqualified?

Thank you, Jeroen Zuiderwijk

I'm always amazed of how different my mix sounds depending on what I hear before it. Do you feel the same? It's scary how our brain adjusts. Yes, you are right about that, I have the same experience. But also for me it really helps to first volume match the different tracks completely. Just a half ...

Hi all,

I haven't been participating in the songwriting competition, just didn't have inspiration for a song. But I just wanted to say that all of this months entries sound really interesting and reflect the theme very good. I liked listening to them. Good work everybody!

Cheers,

Jeroen

Wow, 80 mixes! Thank you so much to everyone for participating, it's been amazing listening to them all and hearing how you've each interpreted the song in your own way. There have been so many creative entries I'm quite overwhelmed! I've made the decision to give feedback to all 80 mixers, not jus...
