@projectm the "couldn't understand a word" comment a tongue in cheek joke, I was wondering if we were to get some throat singing. Which I always find intriguing and fascinating.
Ha ha, gotcha. He does throat singing as well (I am currently practicing it my self) and he’ll be doing that on the album

Mix sounds balanced, didn't understand a word, like Nigel the vox could be a little more forward.
There’s actually no words in the vocals. Joik is an emotional vocal style, I guess, and very rarely has any words. The closest he gets to any actual words is the “wah-wah-wah” phrase he does in the choruses which represents the wolf. On a side note, Fimbulvetr, the long winter before Ragnarok, was caused by the Fenris Wolf eating the sun. But he just do this joik thing after how the song makes him feel - which to me is a very powerful way of singing. And as far as we know, it hasn’t been done like this in a band setting before.
Thanks for checking it out and commenting, Wookiee. I still check out your Sound Cloud when you drop something new

Hi
i think this sounds good - personally I would have liked the vocals up a little bit but apart from that, really good stuff

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I can agree with that. It also needs a better recording of the vocals, so we’ll try that next time too 😛 Thanks for checking it out!

Pretty well done, certainly different . Not a genre that I usually listen to but sounds good.

I started a new band last summer, making a cross over between metal dub and ambient music, I guess. The really interesting thing is we have a singer of the Sami/Sapmi people, the indigenous people in Scandinavia, performing Joik for the vocals. We think it is pretty cool. We have a bunch of songs written for an album to be released late summer (we hope). This song, “Fimbulvetr”, was recorded in various places, mixed in Cubase. I’m curious to hear what you think.

Reaper is a great DAW
CbB is a great DAW
Cubase is a great DAW
Studio One is a great DAW
Harrison Mixbus 32C is a great DAW
MIxcraft is a great DAW
Digital Perfomer is a great DAW
BItwig Studio is a great DAW
Reason 12 is a great DAW
Pro Tools is a DAW 😉I agree 1000% with this post, especially the last entry on the list😅 but anyway, it’s really hard to find something that actually is a bad DAW
…that isn’t made by AVID😉

Maybe paying NI for Player compatibility goes up with the price of libs?
That actually a very interesting thought

It's not that strange; they did that with Apocalypse Percussion Ensemble too. In both cases, the top-end versions are Open Format, giving direct access to the .wav samples.
Fair enough i guess. I thought it was weird they’d invest in player compatibility for the cheap versions and not the flagship. I mean, you can still use full Kontakt for player libraries, but it is so convenient for NKS users to have the player compatibility. And they’d potentially get a bunch of customers who don’t want full Kontakt

That’s what, 5 years on overtime? And not Kontakt player compatible? Very weird…
I have, use and love the Micro. I have the Elements and I hate it. It has that annoying metallic sound to it. Weird, since the micro sounds so different. Listening to the demoes of the Ensemble it doesn’t impress me at all. And I had high hopes for this when I first got the Micro. Money saved, I’ll stick to what I have. But I am glad they made the Micro👍

I have played around with it for a few days and I kind of like it, but it is weird. It definitely is a high frequency saturator, but there are some shifting in the frequencies that seem a bit random. I guess that is what they talk about by it introducing real life into a static IR. I think it will be worth something in my arsenal, but it should never cost much. I think half of what you pay for it is for the GUI TBH. But a useful tool none the less. I think.
I will test it on vocals and drums in a mix tomorrow.

Darkglass is great!

I wasn’t going to spend money on my studio this year, but this upgrade became one of the exceptions to confirm that rule. Very happy I did. Not a revolutionary upgrade but it irons out some significant annoyances for me.
yeah, the color scheme is a bit hard to look at but I spent some time tweaking it to my liking. Overall, I’m happy with upgrading, and it seems surprisingly stable so far for a Steinberg release.

Managed to activate the demo. This works for me. The difference between using my headphones vs my speakers are way smaller now. It sounds like the sound is coming from a speaker position. Just got to see how a mix translates to everything else first. It irritates me a little that it costs money, but I’m pretty sure I’m getting this.

Bummer. Should probably sell mine then…

I get this circle jerk where neither NI or Izotope passowrd works
Same here. Doesn’t matter for me. Won’t buy anything anyway, but I can’t remember if I have MPS or not, and if I do, what version.

Not worth full price, good for the sale price if you need it. Saved my ***** a couple times, and remedied some really bad recordings I’ve received from others.

Oh no… I really liked the dimb9
