ee99ee- This mix isn't that bad. Really the only thing is that the guitar is overpowering everything else. I think if you bring it down when everything else is playing the mix will be much better. As far as the song goes the main guitar riff is cool but it drives into your brain like a drill after a while. Some lead work maybe would help. Good work.

just finished this song, new vocal, new bass and guitar solo, a much better mix I think.

Interested in any feedback.

ee99ee,

I like your song, it has a cool live jam band sound to it. I like the drum sound, and the bass sound.

What mic did you use on the guitar?

BP,

I really like it, all the tones and eq are will done. The voice is great for this style! Just one little tiny recommendation: near the end of the tune, the background ooh's make the mix a tad right-heavy.

Hey Chris...
Just listened to your jazz tune finally, and it was a pleasure. Very nice job on the recording...I've done a few jazz ads in my time, but none were this nice (of course I only had 60 seconds for each one... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] ). In Destin recently, I listened to Norah Jones quite a bit... it really fit the feel of the place perfectly. Anyway, great job...

Thanks Roy,

I took the tune down today. Hopefully I'll have a new mastered version up soon. I doubt anyone will really be able to tell a difference though, as jazz mastering is usually very very subtle. You can really only tell the difference when you listen on several different systems.

Well, post it anyway when it's done...I'de like to hear it. I've had this first version for a few days, but couldn't listen until I got WinAmp and the 6.1 WaveDriver together...(oh you know all that..) good stuff though, Chris...

Roy,

O Sleepy Moon! What a fitting title. I'm about to hit the sack and am absolutely enjoying the calming effect this tune is having. I only wish I had some slide chops myself! [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Anyway, thanks for posting it! Do you have any albums out? Maybe want to work on something sometime? I may be up for a trip to Memphis sometime, or perhaps you could come down here for a little bass fishing! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

With kindest regards,
Chris

The real title is That Old Feeling .

(I usually save trimming the start and end times for actual CD-authoring.)

The guitar is overpowering, but it wasn't as bad until I exported it to MP3. Very odd.... A lot of new rock/alt music has an overpowering guitar, there are just usually 50 of them rather then... 1 or 2.

The guitar was direct as was the bass. What's funny is that the guitar has a HORRID BUZZ in it the whole time, you can hear it in the song that's on the site, but not nearly as bad as before I attacked it with a parametric EQ.

Drums have an Audio-Technica Drumset mic kit on them, with a pair of BG 2.0 overhead condensors... cheapos. :/ Need to get 3 new condensers and a decent vocal mic.

There are more songs [that don't sound as good] on our site: www.dropoutstudios.com.
