hockeyjx Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Solid tune. Sounds great, not really anything I can pick out to improve on imo. Are you a drummer as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL this is all programmed in Superior Drummer 3. the arrangement more or less follows the rolling Stones' "Tumbling dice". the kit is a custom kit taken from a few different kits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, i just said F it.... i can make it loud as F, but i don't like the SOUND of it. in the long run, after i'm long gone, i'll want those mixes to stand up over time, and if they are harsh, and they make my ears tired after just a couple of songs, they wont stand that test. almost EVERY modern pro release disc (or files) i have now, wear my ears out after about 15 minutes, even if i turn it down. i listen to my old classic rock recordings from the 70's, they never do that. they were mastered for vinyl. they weren't so extreme, and not nearly so loud (cuz they couldn't be!)....i've learned my lesson. so i'm backing off! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true, it takes time to master your mix, only you know how your music should sound in reality and I'm like you7, i don't like my voce haha Then you have your mix bus and mastering afterwards which all effect each other. How much time you also want to spend on one song, then mix and then master. Yep, thtas a sweet little jezebel right there haha Iv'e been updating my templates to get my work flow faster and better, however i keep changing my mix bus template which i need to nail down, but different songs, different mix bus. We can ruin a song with too much compression on the mix bus and then make it worse on the master and fool ourselves because its loud. I like a full big wide sound, tight and pumping. When you put too much space in you can loose that, there's not much space in a orchestra. Just having a piano and a vocal is totally different to something with 50 tracks is the reality, so becomes more difficult to mix with that clean sounds with infrequency's fighting. You done, a great job on this mix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy howdy andy! thanks so much for listening... it's one of those kind of songs that hopefully keeps you going thru the whole thing. kinda balances out my all instrumental stuff. and thanks about the voice, always working on it.
