Mix Challenge

Well arranged song, just needed balancing, a little shaping and glue. DRUMS : Mainly balancing tracks and make space for bass guitar. Compression and saturation on the buss, cleaning eq, compression and lows boosting on kick. Shaping eq and compression/clipping on snare. Hi pass and sweetening on cy...

Befor explaning the updates to the mix I just want to say: insanely detailed and useful feedback sir! :shock: Regarding the updates: I thought drums where ok, with just snare being a bit aggressive, so I lowered it a touch. I automated guitars left hand noises volume and fixed intro volume and final...

Mixed the song in kind of minimal top-down approach: when I noticed something sounding bad I fixed in the bus, before going to the single tracks. Started with static mix for volumes, then with guitars that I tought being muddy, using a couple of instances of the mighty Cobalt Baxter on the bus tu op...

Here's my take on this song: WAV: https://campuen-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/personal/mic705154_365office_site/EWyE8-d63kZKh_YY_qDY6hkBhNttl3lnrI5uYVf9l78PkA?e=j9fH7d MP3: https://campuen-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/personal/mic705154_365office_site/ETxug6PF56pBiKufhCb9xVQBEyrEyiYgeMu-fj7GUzAf2Q?e=DlWWv8 I...

Hi all! The process was pretty straightforward and quick too. Quick guitar reamp with various plugins (bx_rockrack JCM800 for intro L, Freeamp on Mesa for guitar fills, Emissary 2 for guitar L&R and bx_megasingle for solo) to find a good base sound. Then volume adjustments on drums to choose bes...

Piranha Bass problems solved. Attack! Hihats are nicely corrected but their texture changed. This is a very nice master with no errors but one: excessive saturation. Ex: 1mn35, see? I like the very good tonal balance, mid oriented but very forward and punchy, warm but still open. I miss a bit of cl...

Pretty straight forward mix process, searching for a lofi-ish, warm sound. Drums where compressed on the bus with Acustica audio Tan, to gain fatness and punch. Room is pretty high in the mix and squashed with RoughRider2. Every microphone is equalized and some were sent to a room verb. Hard tape sa...

I tried as much as possible to gain match every processing step, so to only use plugins to enhance the sound, not to give more volume, and I always test a couple or more processors to do the same thing and chose the best for the particular application. Mastering chain starts with UnfilteredAudio Den...

Edit: added mp3 Very good quality material to work with. I did the same old eq-ing, compress, etc. but this time I went back to trying a little top-down mixing I abandoned a long time ago. A little v-shaped eq on drums, compression on bus, kick, snare and room. Compression on bass, mainly mid boost ...
