I loved your mix for how well balanced it was. The chorus vocals feel so wide and huge its such a powerful moment was really great to listen to how you placed everything.

Hearing how great you got your vocals almost makes me regret thinning out the verse vocals as much as I did it really is a great performance and you did a great job showcasing that.

Personally I felt like the drums were a little bit too dry for my taste I would have enjoyed a bit more room and maybe some verb on them just to help with a bit more vibe.

Really great job with delay and effects on the vocals its all in the right places.

Thats about all I can say your mix is awesome its a great picture of the song thank you for sharing your thoughts! Looking forward to hearing your work in the contests to come!

Don't know about double underscores but capitalization does matter. I found out the hard way. Ps copy and paste cause a script is used on the files and throws it outta wack if file name is off any.

Folks... easy, please.

I explained multiple times, that I am using scripts which help me create the Statistic Sheets (the initial brunt of the edit). In order for them to work properly, the filename must be as provided up until the forum username. After I run the scripts, I do manual edits (checking that no line was switched around, color codes, adding additional info, etc).

Not only that, there are clients out there that will be angry with your if you do not adhere to their given parameters (e.g. a production facility).



I will explain this one last time - and then no more.

Everything is explained in minute detail in the Multi-Track Mix Pack attached "TL;DR Rules.txt", post #003 of each game, the in-depth Rule Book, and the Statistic Sheet explanation.

I can't make this any more obvious, the TL;DR Rules.txt is already sub 400 words (just the rules section, not the disclaimer) and it provides essential information to cross-reference / check prior to uploading. Explaining this over and over again with every game on our community is a time sink, and on the verge of frustrating.

I hope this finally explains things.

I would love to get some feedback on my mix as well.
I did mistakenly upload a version with muted buses and eq on toms and all keys. But besides that, it is what it is

I'll happily return the favour with my limited knowledge.

Thanks to Mister Fox and Edling.
