    Hi there everyone,

    I'd like your thoughts on the quality of the mix please.

    Good , and bad comments are welcome as long as they are constructive.

    Many thanks.

    An honest question:
    When you remix posted stems, aren't they already processed with burned in eq/comp/etc plus the original mastering?
    So isn't that like reprocessing on top of processing? If somehow you received raw stems, then the question is moot.

    Your remix/master doesn't sound bad at all, pretty good actually, but seems a bit "flat" to me. Not squashed flat, but lack of liveliness flat.

    @lexeed you're right. rarely the stems posted (leaked) on the net are processed. (eq'd / compd, not reverbed, that usually comes as a seperate stem.) But you can still learn a lot from the above. There's quite a few interesting multitrack vaults floating around. (torrent)
    cheers!

    Thanks. No it was from a midi file.

    The flatness thing is really what I'm most interested in, because I mix and Master with headphones, Good ones, but still
