    Mix Sounds Bad In Car Stereo

    in Music Composition & Production

    Posted

    It's not going to be the rendering most likely.

    It's probably the mixing itself, just because everything sounds good one on studio setup doesn't mean it's going to sound good on everything - you gotta try and mix on various things to get the "perfect" sound.

    Advice, listen to the song on different things. Mix on your monitors first, then mix it on headphones (which really, you should ALWAYS mix on a good pair of headphones, regardless of if you have monitors or not. Mixing on both is the best way to get a solid mix), then try listening to it in your car, and mix it to your car. Then you can take it even further and listen to the song on a crappy pair of earbuds from a dollar store, and mix it a bit on there.

    If this is confusing at all, the whole point of this is to basically to get one good mix through listening on all these things. Mixing on just monitors alone doesn't mean it's going to sound good on everything else.

    Hope that's not confusing.

    edit: also the subwoofer thing like moseph said. always good to consider that.

    oh yeah also i should mention because i don't think it's that obvious, you're not going to get one "perfect" mix that sounds totally awesome on every single pair of speakers ever, you're just going for solid. if you have to make decisions to sacrafice quality on those earbuds, then i'd do that before anything else.

    you're totally right. I think i should hook up my old speakers and everything else as my refrence. eh.. don't really have a sub

    I haven't check my other mixes yet, cuz I'm too lazy to do so.. but as for this one Im doing right, its very important to me so i gotta do everything i can to make it sound as good as possible.. also I did listened to alot of commercial cd's. they sound really good in all 4 speakers in the car.

    my mix is totally bad. normally what sample rate and bitrate do you set before you burn in a cd and test it in the car?

    I've been working on a track for quite a long time,

    can't seems to find the problem and all,

    I've a well treated acoustic room and KS Digital monitor speakers,

    I've done everything I can on my mix, I've all instruments, vocals and etc stereo widen.

    I mix them all in 44.1/16bit WAVs, everything is properly mixed down and sounds good on my monitor speakers.

    I rendered a mp3 and burned it to cd.

    I've listened to my mix in the car,

    it sounds good on the front seat,

    but really bad on the back seat,

    what could be the problem? is it because the mp3 I rendered in 48,000/320kbps is the problem? (been thinking that actually)

    I'm very frustrated, stressed out and can't get it out of my mind, i can't find solutions, I need advices from you guys,

    I'm very sorry cuz I'm new in this kind of stuff,

    thank you and hope y'all can help me out.
