Oh i like the predelay on the vocal going into verse1. Yeah baby. I am really liking the overall dynamics and movement in this mix. I think that the chorus vocals may be a little loud but that is a taste thing i would say. You could have pulled automated those gasping breathes down even more for my liking as well. Other wise really good from start to finish.

@holster why can i not vote on this mix?

Thx redworks, you’re right about the automation, but
i didn’t want to do more. I wish i had reference the mix to check my finalization.
The result is a bit dark and would have been better with some excitement.

I like the mix not much to not like. I think if you had taken a little more time on the vocal breaths automation and a few other things it would have sounded even better.

I think you said it best in the other thread you posted that you" didn’t work a lot on it because of the
lack of emotion to the song". I agree if you aren’t into the song then do as much as you can and move on.

Nice job for time spent!

Very good. Perhaps kick is too quiet in comparison to the snare.

A lot of stuff to like about this mix. Very pleasing sounds overall.

Just a few details that hold it back from being really top level. The kick drum needs more presence (and possibly more dynamic control) in the choruses. The breaths are a bit intrusive, and the toms are a little too thick in the low mids to my ear.

Nice work!

Hey there moa22 :slight_smile:
Nice mix, very good low frequency balance, the bass is smooth and works well with the kick. The only thing this mix is missing is the high frequency content: the cymbals, hi hats, and acoustic guitars, they are all buried beneath and if you’ve let them shine this would have been an ace mix. I think an easy fix would be just to place an EQ on your master buss and do a high shelf boost, give it some 2-4 dB of gain from about 6kHz and up, and listen how it opes up.
Nice overall job :slight_smile:

thanx, but i had to stop working on it because i found the song boring, that’s why “throw as it is” is the title of the post. I must admit that you’re right ! i didn’t give up because i wanted to know if i was
taking the good direction. Thanx for listening
