Thread Starter | Fresh ears for pop/rock mix.
Any advice welcome and hugely appreciated for the attached mix - including the composition/playing/sound etc (vocals yet to be added). I have some views on all these, but would really appreciate some outside advice. |

Thread Starter | Hey D. Many thanks for the kind words and suggestions. I hadn't put this through any sort of 'mastering' chain to boost the dynamics, so it's really helpful to have some guidance on what works. The material is from a band I play drums in. This track along with a few others were recorded by us some time ago. To be honest the tracking didn't go smoothly (poor mic placement/not enough time to experiment/actually record! etc. etc.) I could go on but now I'm just finding excuses! I've been revisiting the tracks in view of compiling enough material for an album. I wanted to see if I could make these older recordings work a bit better or if they need re-recording completely (we've used my previous efforts for demo purposes/handing out to gigs etc.). Either way it's all a valuable learning curve! One other specific question I had was whether a carefully chosen reverb on the master would take some of the raw'ness out (in a good way)? Thanks again for taking the time to listen. |

sounds way too close to La Grange by ZZ Top to consider it an "original" tune. There are timing issues with the guitars. Best of luck, TK |
