If the 2 versions were volume matched I believe It would be easier to compare. mark Thanks Mark... It was all down to the gainstaging... Gave it another go on V2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He captured the essence of the song in visual form. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grem 3,282 Posted October 26, 2021 Listened to both versions here at work on my phone's speaker and I got to say the second version (the newest one you posted) translated better on my phone than the original. I wanna listen when I get home tonight. Will get back with ya. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thegaltieribrothers 226 Posted October 26, 2021 Hi Gary, Great vocal performance, so much emotion + nice piano and instrumentation. I too thought it was an OMD cover but it turns out it was much nicer with a great sentiment and lovely lyrics. Thanks for sharing. Good Job! regards paul 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wookiee 1,695 Posted October 26, 2021 An emotional vocal for sure, mix works OK here on my Events. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grem 3,282 Posted October 27, 2021 Ok Gary, I just listened to both versions on my studio monitors and the same thing holds true. The balance of the new version translates well on these speakers as well as it did on my phone. Which is really good!! Of course I can hear more detail here in the studio, but the song still had great balance. I would also say it sounded like it has more "glue" that holds it all together. Did you mix from the start, or just adjusted levels to the prior mix? To me it sounds like it was a complete remix from the ground up. Both versions are keepers for sure. : ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had re-tuned my room and also believe my critical listening have improved a little since the last mix. Thanks for the conformation on the glue 🙂 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
