wow ... man you never give up, get a life .
I will ignore this post as it comes from the most unbalanced, unprofessionnal, and worsely un-rock'n'roll mixes of the lot.
First I'm really grateful to J.Hall and the contributor who gave the tracks, this is priceless for a beginner mixer like me to try and learn with y'all wild bunch. THANKS !
We all agreed, snare and drums in general were a pain in the ass to breathe life into.
Almost everybody (I didn't) replaced the snare, and yeah we have a wide array of sizes and tones
More than the drums, it's the lead vocal that gave me a hard time, It bored me to death ! So I ended up putting this rotary effect that dulled it completely, but I liked this kinda "plastic" !
J.Hall, you succeeded where I failed, vocals sound great and they don't bore me ! Your whole mix is unreal, snare cracks, Kick is huge, space is there, man you rock.. maybe a little hyped ?
Guitars sounded great, it was hard to get them bad. But panning was something else ! 3 guitars, three position (L,C,R). Or maybe not ? ha ha, I liked the different options ..
And the reverb, man the verb is so personal ..
A lot of us must tune our room, I hear tonal shifts (in mine too), and some of us master mastering, some better keeping a low level
I had a very good time mixing and listening to all of your works, I will do it again.
Congrats evryone for the work and let's talk !
