Douglas Kirby Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Nice job Gary - the mix is excellent - Bing would have been proud of this version. Really good vocal - enjoyed the listen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjornpdx Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 (edited) Gary, if you were going for a 40s crooner sound you nailed it. I love your version of White Christmas. How did you do the backing vocals? Oh and I like the snowmen too. Edited December 18, 2021 by bjornpdx 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noynekker Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) Pretty cool Gary ! Didn't you do this one last year ? Sweet production. Poof, another year on the Cake forum. You've certainly got another gear on those low notes that not many have, just like Bing did I guess, maybe that's why they named a browser after him, LOL. Thanks for kicking off that Christmas feeling for me ! . . . a very merry Christmas to you and yours. EDIT: The snowmen are my new desktop, classic fun.

PhonoBrainer Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Great! The arrangement and vocals, perfect match. The bass is subdued and unobtrusive, and its tone is spot-on for the era. Those string lines and what they are doing would make any session producer from 1955 proud. thanks for the refresh, it was a holiday treat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeringAmps Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I'm giving a slight edge to the "Vintage" mix. I went back and listened to the old mixes on Band Lab (those are last years still?); the differences are pretty subtle. Would I be able to pick the Vintage mix out in a double blind shootout; with my Golden Ears, you are kidding right? ? Fine vocal here Gary, you've done yourself and Bing proud. And the mix is lovely, so big ?'s here! t as I mentioned last year I don't think I have the big brass cajones necessary to take a run Bing. I guess you have... ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Smith Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Can't get much more authentic to the original than this which actually surpasses it in terms of the mix/mastering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
