Re: Peter & Roy\'s PTLe Shootout 1: ~FINAL RESULTS~
[Just so I am not toooo AS, good work to everyone and it seems that Roy and Peter took some time and made serious honest assesments. Good going to everyone.]
I have never been the sort to believe that you have to be as good or better than others to be a critic. If so Ebert and Ropert wouldn't have jobs....not very many critics would actualy. That said, I feel like throwing my own opinions in the mix. But then I decided to spare everyone that read and simply say that my own opinions differ greatly. I think a lot of this has to do with personal taste, even most of the technical descussions, but not all, seemed rather personal to me. My own personal opinion is that simple is as simple does, and the minor backing to major vox made the lyric barable. So, I personaly enjoyed Torment v2&1 the best. And that just happend to be there in the way. Way to go Ben! |

The reason for the low score is twofold. One, is that the stressed acoustic guitar is rushed. And either you played it rushed every single time, or you pasted a rushed sample onto each place it happens. The second reason, is that the power chords in the chorus are slightly flat. The clearest place to hear it, is right at the end of the first chorus, going into the second verse. I suppose I could have given you a 2, but these flaws would still be there in Timing and Tuning. Sorry, but I was told to be harsh, to help you see what could be improved. And, thus the score. ~Roy p.s. Thanks everyone for your patience and please know that this was tough, to have to judge friends' mixes without being bias.

Re: Peter & Roy\'s PTLe Shootout 1: ~FINAL RESULTS~
Roy- I appreciate, more than you realize, the straight foward, no holds barred, critique. People pay good money for honest expert feedback like this and you are absolutely correct about both points in my mix, thank you. Again, both you guys are highly valued as well as your opinions. This has been much fun and growth.

Re: Peter & Roy\'s PTLe Shootout 1: ~FINAL RESULTS~
Wow,
What a great thread! The comments on this will go on a long time for sure... Having listened only once to each version, as well as the original, I must say that I heard and saw talent, originality and vision in each and every one of them. True, we're all going to have favorites, and some that we don't like much at all, but I am awe struck at how much energy, certainty, and talent each one of them showed me. Please remember that the judges have their values also. Do not let any of their comments deter you from going your own direction. (Specifically, Roy's contnued comments about major/minor problems are, to me, not warranted, but then, I'm not the judge.) [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] And while I have no real issues with the final order, I would also say to those brave enough to compete, you all did great stuff! With all respect due to BRB who provided a measurably great starting point, I think many of you found positions of artistic value that, for me, went well beyond the original. The energy you invested, and the amount you opened yourselves up here, let me see just how far different visions can take a great starting point. Cheers to you one and all. In the end, my words mean absolutely nothing as we are all just individual judges caught up in our own situations. Some of us produce others, some of us write jingles, and some of us sit at play with no real responsibilites in this world. So what? What I did glimpse, in this last hour, is how much talent I have to opportunity to commune with here. And I notice that every participant, one and all, are some of our more quiet members! The true lions lie in wait to show us their strengths. It is evidenced here today. This is very impressive indeed. With best regards and deep respect, Mark Darren, My only comment would be 'Don't take it to heart.' Mark Quote:

Let me ask you something. If you were asked to be a judge in this, and you were to comment on each separate mix, what would you say about a major key melody within a minor key? Nothing? Would you say it once somewhere and hope that those who didn't recognize it when they wrote the music, would somehow know you were referring to their piece? I'm curious, because we worked very hard on this, and your comment is more unwarranted than me doing my job. Please answer...I'm curious... ~Roy

Re: Peter & Roy\'s PTLe Shootout 1: ~FINAL RESULTS~
Hello Roy,
I'd just like to say I recognized it (Major/Minor)...Didn't you hear that bass slide I put in there to try to cover it up? [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] But your keen ears are too good for me...Again, Great job with the critique.... Quote:
