Here's mine, thanks for the extension. I had trouble with the making the vocals sound good, everything else seems OK.

 

It was a joke massa. Please don't toss me out the main house. I be good sir, I promise!

No seriously. Look what I call myself on here. I don't want you to know my name.

 

I made it

Code:

Qvon Ft IZAK - Gangsta Trap (Introninja Mix).wav

I think it might be too bright, working with loud trains tends to lower your High-frequencies hearing range. That why i usually wake up early just to listen to a mix before going to work, then in my car on the way there and finally on any extended break available lol

My vote goes to... @Calvin Lanz's Mix. To me, that mix sounds the most "record like / ready" of the bunch, although the vocals bus could still use some volume automation to maintain some adaptive vocal balance across the whole song, other than that it's pretty much "record ready" sounding. Good job!

Honorable mentions: - @Introninja - Nice punchy drums, spacious, but the vocals needs more volume, solidity and definition. Well Done!
- @SteveBoston - Nice mix overall, although the sub bass could use some taming and bringing it down a bit, while the vocals are kinda boxy and the volume automation kinda linear (seeming louder in the beginning when there's no drums, then muffling down when the mix gets denser). Well Done!

 

well thank you very much, I appreciate that a lot!! I tried to do that a little bit already, maybe if you could point me to parts of the vocal that you find lacking in volume?

 

With vs without bd?

 

No Problem.
0:10 - 0:20 = bring the vocal down by 0.5db.
0:58 - 1:11 = bring the vocal up by 0.5db (and other similar busy places in the mix where you feel the vocal gets a tad crowded by the other elements). Then print it again and see how it does balance wise.

 

Thanks for the help, it does sound a lot better now! Or at least more consistent. Went through the entire vocal and touched up some words here and there in addition to what you said.

Makes sense

 

thanks for the input and analysis..... more input from other people welcomed

 

BTW i pretty much already made my mind up since 24 hours ago

 

Introninja: music seems to overpower vocals
Tod: Your added off-beat beats sound strange to me & music overpowers vocals towards the end.
Vampire: I like your added synth
Spyfx: after listening to everyone else's, you deciding to go with a different timing of the rap throws me off, but it might even be off-time
Calvin: As others have said, sounds sorta polished, maybe a little too polished - ie, too much (vocal) compression?
Gyero: Reverb sounds too "big"; tail too long/delayed
junh1024: Mine.
Beat: Image too wide
Moose: Deserves praise for being most different, vocals too fast tho imo
Steve: keepin it original as others have said

Overall comments: Vocals sound ok alone, but when mixed you'll notice the flaws. Some people added reverb, EQ, etc to make it fit.

 

thankyou for your input thatts nice and concise and adresses everybody ... perfectt

 

Yeah, looks like we're gonna have to start from scratch. They just... well, they just don't understand trap
