Hi

the musicianship is very good & its very tight

i just seemed to miss something on the mix, it sounded a bit thin & over compressed

so drowning out the vocals ...   sorry for being harsh but its my opinion

curious what other comments are As its a very well played song

success

hey subvibe, thanks for listening and commenting.

 

the mix isn't thin, or overcompressed, the compression i use is very transparent, and i put across in multiple locations so there's never a buildup..

 

but the mix could be off.

i remixed it, and brought the vox up a bit, and changed the eq on it, so it sits in a different range of eq.

complemented that on the acoustic guitars.

 

i'll tell you, it IS a big difference when the opening electric rhythms are playing the dual slide parts, but then drop out when the vox comes in...

 

so i changed that part of the mix too, and i think it should sit better now.

Hi

 

 

The vocals are coming through a lot clearer

i think they must of been clashing with the guitars

sometimes i use Smart EQ to try to carve a place in the mix for each instrument/part

great & tight song

Hey Bats, terrific production & performances  -- bit of a Joe Walsh approach to the vocals & slide guitars (very well played) -- I enjoyed this  -- Allan.

Now if only I could play slide half as good as this i´d be rather happy , great track as always nice one cheers P

Thanks for coming back to check it.

Its good getting the last minute feedback.

 

I have Waves Curves I can use if I need ducking, but I prefer to fix issues in the mix with changes in Eq and panning.

ha! paul, i really should dedicate one of my guitars to slide and get on with it! but i almost never practice it, and chide myself for not doing so every time i decide i really want to play some slide!

 

who knows, maybe NOT practicing, keeps things melodic and simple. food for thought.

 

thanks for listening, and commenting, i appreciate it.

Bumpin' again!

I like the sound of this - very early 70s. (And I was there.)  Great playing!

hey thanks barry!

glad you checked it out.

 

i def am inspired by early 70's, more for the performance aspect than the recording aspect, but there is a lot to learn there..

that was where stereo was really coming into play, and they were trying new stuff,

a lot that seems to have been less used now.
