Damn I like this.

Good work.

I think all the levels are just right. The vocals sit tightly in the mix. and i like the use of disotrtion.

The beat is y.

Keep it up.

I would greatly appreciate your input on the guitar, bass, drums and vox sound...and if anything should be changed, modified, or improved please let me know what you think!
This sounds really thin overall, Good track, good song, like the grittiness but the quality just isn't doing the performance justice in my opinion.

Quick track I did for a local artist "1EXO" off one of Games instrumental's for his mixtape.

Mixtapes are easy $ when the beats are already tracked out :D

Came out pretty decent

Dig the vocals, although the 2nd verse sounds a little rushed like he wrote something beforehand and tried to force too many words into some parts. Like the tone of his voice though.

Vox was SM7B > 737

What you stated is exactly the case with the 2nd verse...

He has a Plies tone with a TI style sorta

This is a new beat I wrote for a little track my friend and I are doing. Its not totally finished or mixed well at all. My beats normally have sections that change for the verse and chorus, intro and outro, sometimes some fills, but this song is just a straight beat. Nothing really changes cause its not going to have a chorus or anything, just a straight beat for a little bit of a flow from each of us. Nice swing-styled beat intended for 8th note triplet lyrics....

yeah agree very thin you may have bass nodes in your room at 80HZ cause theres a huge hole in the bass and kick drum to my ears but vocals dont sound thin there is plenty of 500 ish in them. Nice Guitar work! and i Like the vocals too!

I've been recording on an MXL 990 for years. With what little I know about mixing and recording, I was able to make some pretty decent mixes with just that mic, no outboard preamps other than my Mbox 2. Just a basic set up.

After a summer of researching, I've finally purchased my first of a few new mics that I thought would be right for the kind of set up I wanted to build. The problem is, everything I thought I knew doesn't apply anymore. My MXL 990 is a really dark, muddy mic. I knew how to bring the clarity out of it and get the best mix that I could get out of it. This new mic is so much better than my 990 that I don't know what to do with it!

***ALL OF THE FOLLOWING CLIPS CONTAIN PROFANITY!***

Here's a song that was solely recorded by the MXL 990 and mixed by me:
On Top Of The World
http://soundcloud.com/morejaylesswar/on-top-of-the-world-feat

Not great, by far, but it got the job done. It sounds pretty decent in all settings that I've heard it in. Live, in cars, other sound systems, etc.


Here's something with the newer mic that was recorded today. It has not been touched whatsoever. All I did was turn down the volumes of his dubs.

http://soundcloud.com/morejaylesswar/qk-verse-unmixed

Now just the vocals, no beat.

http://soundcloud.com/morejaylesswar/qk-verse-acapella

What do you suggest I do in order to get a warmer sound? The vocals sound harsh to me. I can't seem to get them to sound full or smooth. I don't know much about compression or EQing other than what I did with my old microphone. I knew I had to cut the mids out to bring out the vocal. If I cut anything out of this mic, I feel like it's a risk of sounding a lot more brittle than it already does.

I appreciate ANY input.
