Hello,
Here are the final results. As always when doing this kind of selections, it's hard to set the ranking since each track has it's pros and cons, so you can send me a PM with all your flames and insults if you want!
Anyways, here we go:
1st - Monk: Congratulations! I really enjoyed your mix, it's really punchy and the bass has a good definition. The snare has a very agressive sound I loved, and also I detected some really subtle FXs in the bass section that, although not game-changing, they have added movement and dynamism without moving it out of place.
2nd - davemcisaac: I don't really know what to say about your mix... The overall sound is really good, a great balance in drums, bass, pads and FXs, and in them as a whole
. Not much grit/dist added, though.
3rd - VasDim: In general, your mix sounds great, but I detected a problem of sub volumes... That was eating almost all the dynamic range, but otherwise, everything sounded great and you've done a good job with FXs (even if sometimes the mix sounds a bit washed in reverb).
4th - Photonic: A good, dirty mix. Really sounds with a lot of character, but again, the bass (the Wobble synth) was... better than in Round 1, but dispersed, not in the same room as the other elements. Still, a mix I enjoyed for it's originality
5th - Studio Saturn: Umm, a clean mix. Everything has it's place, overall volumes look great, but it's lacking any character, it sounds a bit thin, especially the snare, which in these genres is the percussive element that drives the track.
And I think we are finished here. I have enjoyed having you all mixing my track, hearing the different styles and so, and I hope we have all had fun and an interesting time.
Regards,
Jorge
