    Fragile

    Songs from the heart are the ones you will always remember. Don't ever feel shy about posting "anything" you have feelings about. @jack c. is an example of someone who keeps his heart on his sleeve and shares his real experiences and feelings with everyone. ms

    Fragile

    Great writing Treesha. I'm loving the delays that are coming thru on the outside of the mix. It's starting to remind me of a early protest song. Fragile seems to come and go for a lot of us .. Loved the ending .. mark
  5. Try going to utilities/plugin manager , and see if melodyne is showing up as a vst3 (or if it has been excluded). ms
  6. Robert , I Really liked the mix and I thought your vocal harmony's were Fantastic! I really liked the drum "flams" and drums as a whole. The drum change up part threw me off a little (only for a second) and then I felt what you were going for. Very creative , I wasn't trying to dance to it .. Enjoyed it .. mark
  7. Great song Lynn ! I Really liked it . As far as suggestions .. I think the highs need a little taming. Addding some more low end will help , but I don't think enough . To me .. it also seems to be missing some compression "glue" to smooth it out a little more. I did listen on some "somewhat" hyped cans but the same ones I use for all online listening. Great performance , Enjoyed it .. mark
  8. John , that was a Very enjoyable nice , smooth , light and relaxing listen. If you work on the vox track any further , I "think" I would widen it a little. Enjoyed it .. mark
  9. @KSband @Wookiee @bjornpdx @Kevin Walsh @noynekker Thanks guys for the listen and the Great comments! I've been pretty satisfied with the mix but , it has been bothering me about not having a bass guitar. The low bass requencys were actually done on an electric piano. I thinned the bottom of it out some and laid a played bass guitar track under it. I'll probably replace one short passage on it , but wont bump the song back up. I appreciate everyones support on this one. Respectfully .. mark
  10. Great Exciting mix and video. I loved the vocal harmonys in this one. You keep raising the bar with these polished performances. Inspiring .. mark
  11. My chin hit my chest at 4:36 . I think some of the sounds (on their own) wouldn't be that relaxing . Somehow they all worked great together. Very impressive , Loved it .. mark
  12. Thanks , different is what I was going for. It was pretty easy getting the song to work with this heavier vibe. Appreciate that. I leaned pretty hard on Pro R plate reverbs. I kept hunting for different guitar treatment , but stayed with Bias FX. Thank's , My old vocal chords have lost a lot of clairity .. I "almost" started a BB King and Joe Cocker song. I may try it at some point. Thank You , I've actually been sneaking in remixes , mainly just volume automation and calming the reverbs down a little. The guitar parts were enjoyable to do. I'm not much of a lead player but the fills come pretty easy. I Really appreciate the listens and comments , all of you keep me going .. mark
  13. Hello , I thought I'd do a cover that I've been playing around with for a while. I did it just for my own satisfaction while in between originals. I've always wondered why nobody covered this "dark" song , taking it out of the rockabilly genre. Anyway .. if you hear anything that would improve it , please let me know. Thanks for the listen .. mark -link now reflects a remix- https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=14700231
  14. I think we all do . But .. a quiet low harmony and even "whispering" under a lead vocal can add a tremondous amount of thickening . It's So much easier than singing higher . No reason not to try it , even before your high harmony's are done. ms
  15. Very Nice and clear mixes. For future songs I think more "low" harmony would ground the vocals a little better. Especially in songs with such high melody lines. Great album especially for a debut. Enjoyed it .. mark
  16. SubVibe , "Awesome" job on this one. You Really showed your mixing and production skills. This was increadably smooth with some great break and fill parts. I didn't find it lacking in anything. Truly enjoyed it .. mark
  17. Beautiful song and beautiful wide open country.. Nice .. mark

    Jack , Beautiful chord progressions and soundscape .. mark
  19. Examigan , I believe complicated was an "understatement" , especially on echidnas-arf. I'll bet that one was a nightmare to edit and get it to the level you have it. It seemed to me , the Very ending got cut off a little . Probably from the streaming site. The drums were Killer on it. I believe your bass player was the star on Duprees-paradice. Fantastic mix/master on both of them ! I enjoyed the listen .. mark
  20. Kjetil , I Loved the guitar part at 1:23. got a little of that U2 feel. I think the mix sounds Very nice. If I were to change anything I think I would try to thicken up the lead vocals a little. Maybe reducing the brightness a little would help ?? hyggelig .. mark
  21. Kevin , Great production ! I can't ever get my bases sounding good using amp sims. Your vocals and the treatment on them was Fantastic ! Loved it .. mark
  22. Probably a larger "right" wing Chinese communist party plot.
  23. OK , I just took 1 bar with only 2 drum hits in it. I used the audio snap pallet to get the hits right. Bounced to clip. Enabled groove clipping . The clip stretched twice it's length. Opened loop construction view and changed the note duration . The clip stayed the same length , but was if it had been dragged 1 more measure . Got out of loop construction and the clip can be dragged further out (or back) to 1 bar working as a groove clip should. I still haven't figured out why I cant just double click the clip and get to where I can change the settings. I'll play with it further but I can deal with this and get more familiar with audio snap and looping. On my laptop I can just enable groove clip and it seems to work fine. ?? Thanks for the help. I can at least make a groove clip now. mark
  24. I'm finding the settings in "loop construction" view. It wasn't available in my modified basic workspace. I'm still playing with it and reading the documentation and watching Cake videos. Slowly getting results. Thanks .. mark
  25. Listening to this brought back some Nice , long gone familiar feelings. Lets do the time warp again .. mark
