ped Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Superb - I like a lot of your tracks. Thanks for the link. Perhaps the only thing I would change is the reverb on the vocals is a bit bright and metallic sounding in places. The bass sound works well. Quite big and round, juxtaposes quite nicely against the bright piano and guitar, fills a lot of space. Nice. ped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And thanks for the positive comments on the bass sound it was a complete bitch to get that sounding right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I really liked the reverb on the vocals - it added character to the mix and seemed to set the whole band in a room - which I like. To be fair if you're going for radio play maybe it's a bit too much on the weird side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheddatom Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 If you're going to keep playing with it try a tad more early reflections on the acoustic guitar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Sounds good to me personally I would have mixed the effects a little quieter. Possibly find the clack on the acoustic and get rid aswell as a bit more treble. Overall impressed and any changes would just be personal choice. Possibly a tad more bass in place of some mids on the singer. Aswell as a small cut at about 10k for sibilance. Some people like that too. Bass sounds very nice and mellow. At 3:30 on the singer I would add an echo too. All just personal choice and written as I wrote it. Congrats on a great mix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBomber414 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I was in the same position last night at a studio - they could not reproduce the punchy sound of my rig , so they miked up the amp and recorded that way - worked fine.
