Clint , Very Solid track. I thought it was pretty unusual the way you sang it but it worked Nice. The drums and bass laid a great bed to play against. Tasty guitar work .. enjoyed it .. mark

Kurt , I looked at Bias FX and a few more after listening to your song. I've found that most of the great tones I've been wanting to reproduce seem to be coming from high end pedal boards. I was surprised to hear this was FX. I could probably do a better job with TH3 than I have in the past. One question is do you use a centered stereo track for breaks like in this one ? Also forgot to mention I'm a big fan of the fretless. Thanks .. mark

Kurt , Loved the tone and reverb on the horn that comes in on the right side of the mix . The guitar tone was Awesome and I really liked the "bite" you got on the attacks. I Really need some more tools for electric guitar processing. Thanks for the nice listen .. mark

Very Nice Andy .. I Really liked the laid back "living on the Island" feel. I see why he had a nice following in Bermuda. I thought the your vocals were very impressive. Enjoyed it .. mark

Beautiful Jane. Young heart , old soul. I believe you and the Messiah will always get along .. mark

Bruce , Absolutely Fantastic ! You guys make a Great team. I can't believe the quality of your vocals. I especially like the short falsetto parts. My mix suggestions would be that I think you need some de-essing. It seems a little more apparent in the early part of the song. I also think you need a volume boost from 1:49 to 2:16. This section could use a little more drive on some of the instruments until the vocals come back in. Incredible Song and Production ! This is one of the Best I've heard here. mark

@Don CobbI installed it via flash drive on an off line pc. It went to C\program Files\VST plugins\Bitsonic\keyzone classic .dll Have you checked the plugin Mgnr. to see if it's excluded ? (VSTI instruments). I've used it on a couple of projects , sounds decent. Good luck .. mark

I thought you did a Very Good job with this song. The vocals were very impressive in this nice mix. I recently watched a video (from somewhere) and it showed some major record labels and publishing company's that actually had a team of "listeners" seeking out copywrite violations on different platforms along with their AI. Enjoyed the song .. mark

Great immigrant song . I think it's the Native Americans who should have built a wall.. I used to own a syncaset but seems like it was a Teak. Still own an Tascam 8 track cassette recorder and a suitcase full of tapes. Nice job bringing life back to your old but still relevant song . Enjoyed it .. mark

I Really like the light hearted smooth feel of this song. Great lyrics/Great writing ! Reminded me a little of some early works by Stephen Bishop. Very Nice .. mark

Kevin , Great track ! I loved the vocal doubling using the low voice , and the airy delay/verb treatment you used. (??) Lovely bass line as well. Enjoyed it .. mark

Treesha , Big difference with the new bass track. If I were to do anything else it would be to reduce it a little bit and pull a tiny bit of the lows out of it. The kick is losing a little power. Great improvement on the overall mix , Very Good Job.. mark

Very Nice Tom ! I Really liked the feel of it. Great cymbal intro as well and it started off Real Strong . I can't wait to hear what else you do with it. Loved it .. mark

Very Clean mix. I Really like the energy in this song. Great job ! ms

Paul , I've had this problem several times when trying to (using edit) remove a song and replace it with a new mix. If your song title is exactly the same , sometimes you can replace the song on Soundcloud and Cakewalk can still find it without editing anything in CbB. After removing a song , it seems like using a "link" to your song always works as it should. "embed" is where the problem comes up for me and I get the "can't find song". If you leave it that way , it will eventually properly imbed the song. Sometimes it's 24 hrs. later. I still haven't figured it out . mark

Another Great track. I Really liked the Wah and the build up near the end. Everything came together nice and powerful. With so much going on with all the guitar tracks , you probably can't use much reverb or any at all on the guitars (??), but sometimes I think "some" on select lead parts only when they come forward in a mix would enhance the feel sonically. As wild as you play sometimes you still sound reserved and tamed . I guess it's a sign of a seasoned player. Enjoyed it .. mark

I'm calling this one done . I've made changes including the length of the song and a new mandolin track. I thank you for all your help and time. Thank You all .. mark https://soundclick.com/r/s8kuqw

Can you get by with using the "gain" knobs for the midi tracks as a work until the problem is sorted out ?

From one star gazer to another .. I Loved the Song and Production , especially the drum tracks. Real nice change around 2:50 Enjoyed it .. mark

Very cool and experimental sounding. I agree with Wookie about the piano. EQ wise it could mesh better with the vocals. I think a little silence at the beginning before the song starts is also in order. Very creative , I Really enjoyed it .. mark

@Wookiee I checked it out "Watching the Black" You should Really sing more .. You've got that Pink Floyd thing going on.. mark

Absolutely a Beautiful mix. The vocals really took me back to some killer new wave stuff I used to listen to. Loved it .. mark

@jack c. @AndyB01 @KurtS @batsbrew @Wookiee Thanks guys for your time and comments. It Always helps. I'm still playing around with different instruments on this just trying a few things out. If I think I've made any headway I'll repost. Still got a ways to go. I Really Appreciate it .. mark

Love the power in this one. A Lot of things going on with the harmony leads , but everything is nice and grounded. Fantastic playing ! mark

Cool song Keith. I Like the steel drums . I think the reverb on the 2nd mix sounds good for the backing vocals. I think the delay was overdone on the main vocals. They seem to have gotten pushed back too far in the mix. I think it would sound better with a cleaner reverb and pushing them more to the front of the mix. Have a Great trip ! Now would be a good time for a sun burn. Tip one up for the rest of us. mark
