1 - Kick too Big for that style,
2 - Same goes for your Snare/Clap
3 - not sure but i'm hearing distortion or probably over-compression...
needs a Professional mixing, and might be a good Remix after all.

 

I like your way of working with drums and changing elements as they're needed in every section to complete each other. It shows you're keenly aware of their roles and not overloading the track with unnecessary ones but please for God's sake, shape your track that other ingredients be as important as the vocal.

Wish I knew someone cool on here with a professional mixing area. I am using jbl 305s with no treatment so it's hard to get the elements perfect.

 

What does this mean exactly? In liaison with old Steve again? Why didn't you like us?

 

@TruBlood

How can I get the acapella?

 

Dup-step is at the end of the road and has been sunk in by Steve and his blood bothers and fortunately languishing in sorrow and heaving their last sighs of withstandings and the those kick and snare are their closing weapons. Thanks GOD!

 

Hey, made this on the go. It´s the idea straight forward.

What needs to be improved the most?

Thanks.

 

Helvetica, don't hijack threads with "your own take" .
still, what needs to improve you wonder? a serious attempt..


TruBlood
really nice remix.

the problem i found is "only" its way to dry still, no reverb, hardly any delays been used.
and the leading base/synth is a bit "thin" to shoulder the responsibility.
IF its going to sound all the way through like that then it needs to be automatized and filtered at least somewhere. Mix-wise? pretty decent i would say.

other than that, a fully releasable remix

 

Thanks for the feedback. I was hoping that this would be good enough but the mastering compression is getting distorted by either the lead bass line/or the drums. I'm going to need to put in a little extra work here it looks like. As noted I also need to add some verb and I was also going to beef up the breakdown first 8 bars with another instrument or guitar. Hope you guys audioz lovers liked.

I'm thinking I could cut down the distortion from the source of the bass lead and the compression might just add it back in anyways and not be getting super distorted, but at some points I think I hear one of the lead vocals distorting which is not good.

 

found on sister site ;) PM me if u need link

 

Wut? I was waiting for Ableton 10 to drop first but, I may have to come out of retirement...
I just got home from work. Ill take a real listen in a bit and give you my $.02
Nice to see you Steve :wave:

 

Two additional points from me:

1.: Look at the waveform display: totally overcompressed




2.: Look at the analyzer: a) 30Hz, respect, you will need full range (midfield)monitors and really high volume to balance this - but I would cut it off. b) Serious phase issues (correlation meter). c) peak at 0,0 should be at ~ -0,3




You can and should easily avoid this issues even with your monitors

That's not house, that's a dance remix...
The mix is not balanced. The balance between kick and bass sounds ok, but both are way stronger than the rest of the elements...

 

Agree with everything, nice to see you Mikey, you are too good to be retired man! One of my Bass Synths Correlation is off the charts so i'll work on that. I also am addressing the over compression and the 30 hz. Should be fixed in an hr. thank u -

Track is now updated.

Mastering EQ Complete
Found Phase Cancellation issue on lead bass synth - fixed by cutting sides
Added Verb to snare build up
Remixed Mastering Compressor for less compression

* DId not adjust kick and bass as I want to hit hard in club setting. I think I mixed this to taste but I just don't have enough listening spaces to adequately tune the kick and bass perfectly, but I think its good enough to play out hopefully.

But did you hard cut it at somewhere between 30 to 37hz? Cut it hard with a 24db/oct curve or more depending on your mastering eq. I dont know if it makes any difference but Ill cut it right below the frequency thats an interval of the key my song is in, lol so the lowest sub bass that makes it through is in key. Just the OCD in me

See this post? This is the kind of analysis you should be doing in the mixdown/self mastering sessions. spectrum, waveform and phase correlation monitoring. Not only lufs loudness but all 4. Try not to sausage the track, lol keep some dynamics. also you can automate the compressor to ease up on the breakdowns then slam it again in the drops. This is a trick I do. I drop off on the compression a few dbs and then slowly ramp it back up in the builds to full compression in the drops. This way your track will breathe

Interesting, I go up and down with the track level...

 

I will do both depending on what sounds better for the material. The track level into the compressor and ALL the bands on the eq with similar automation to give emphasis to the dynamics of the track. Drop it a bit then ramp it back up. Ramping it up in the intros and down in the outros ect. But it all has the same effect, letting the track breathe properly and giving it dynamics

You can use a mastering eq but you will always achieve better results if you only use them in the mix.

Both better now.

But:

Are you sure??? Do you see a significant difference? I don't.
