My Latest Work (literally just finished this)

[joeymusicguy]

This is the first time ever that I've mixed a song right after recording it.

We recorded so close to final mix that it really didnt take much, just some level shifting.

Please listen and let me know what you think!

This is final (except for 1 gang vocal part missing).

Interesting music! Great mix as usual dude.Very pro indeed You'll have to share your vocal tips, they sound splendid!

 

[joeymusicguy]

i used ssl e channel to compress the last singing part =]
i intend to use it on the rest of the record

settings were really simple

ratio 20:1
release .1 / fast attack
threshold -20
output gain +12

then +6 db after (for more make up gain)

make sure to de-ess first

edit: screaming vox are just the 1176 which you can search on the forum to see how i run that

 

[AStudio]

Well done as usual, sounds very professional. Just a great mix that lets you enjoy the song. Wouldn't change a thing

 

[Sickan]

Great as always Joey!
I think you should turn the bass up during the "verses" and add more mids/grit/highs to the bass.

i agree with you

the mix is so slammed, it's really hard to make this possible tho, unfortunately
not without doing some eq carving in other tracks.

Yeh, it is very hot! I am listening on the A7's now, so im just getting used to them myself.

Judging from that answer, I guess making the mix... less smashed isn't an option?

by smashed i dont mean that its really compressed or anything
there's just a lot of tracks competing with each other.

there's like 12 tracks of keyboards haha

Sounds great. Listening on A7's over here as well. Kick has a lot of shape, without being over the top. Really nice work. Not a huge fan of the "happy hardcore" keys, but each to their own!

What you using for your glitches?

[eternally_gutted]

like always, awesome...
some info about pod settings in this song?
good band too.

 

[nwright]

sounds a little thinner than your more recent work? It definitely sounds dense, but I don't sense the same sonic weight. Great mix as usual, though.

could use a little more low mids i suppose

 

[Plankis]

Very clear mix. Turn up the bass a little though. The lows are the only ones that's not totally red on winamps freq analyser..

 

[TheTrevorStrain]

Sounds awesome as usual. I'm going to be a crowd follower and say it could use a little more low-midish bass though. Vocals sound incredible though, and I don't hear any "ess" or "lisp" issues that you had been having.
