This is sweet, but i cant hear the last 20 seconds from my laptop, tone sound fine on my laptops speaker tho.

Another thing i commonly see, are people stereo mixing bassline's and/or low frequency sounds, people stop doing that, and it robs space!

Not everyone

Crap i forgot how to make the pluck bassline and i made it in my other tracks lol could anyone tell me how or atleast start me off so i can remeber

good point now that you mention it i do hear some short demos with those kinda problems

As the title says, alot of good songs especially the ones you hear in some games are 1-3 min long and they are sweet. Ok Some short songs need extension cause there awsome I understand that, but whats the deal with the negitivity:shock:

and the only daw ''new kids'' in the music world know of, and im guessing thats what image-lines market was aimed at.

Got to agree fl is kinda a fish in a pond, and alot of people hear really like it, but i do still prefer protools, cubase, and ableton. Its really down to what you like to do, i only use fl for loops and some effect vst but thats about it But then again, Avid makes there cash in there hardware marketing and forcing people to by a $3,000+ I/O for there best version of protools, well untill protools 9 i think you can use any interface, not sure about HD tho, but i do enjoy making some track in protools LE cause it feels more smooth, fast,I can find stuff, and recording instuments is smooth for me, almost like in Ableton, but there is sometimes some lathency in Ableton when i record live just try demos and see which one you like!

anyone (pref with more bands), i need one.

if you mean the drums, the kick is a synth, which you cam get sampled from house/trance kits, the claps are from drum machines, the cymbals are real but from drum machines, so look around

so for........... 9.8, sound lovly, so far the best mix i'v heard on oc in my opinion.

Nice final! great sound, sine/saw bass is nice and you have more passage for the vocals! 8.9! (Note to all keeping up to my rating scale, im now switching to my Real rating system metric, so expect my score to be real.)

Sweet, im glade people are picking stuff up from this thread, but guys keep the arguments low ;(

I learned alot from you(some stuff I also heard from books too) and bit of everyone, and everyones opinions and facts are welcomed. But i did not expect this much commotion/crazyness in this thread also with the use of unscrupulous language, so please people Keep this thread friendly and clean.

if the synth is giving a stereo signal, then the bus or mixer track the synth is in will contain a stereo sound, so phasing rules still will apply. the track bus it self is still a mono track but containning a stereo signal, so its will be a stereo sound you will hear same as hard panning in your daw, no sonic diffrence. not to be confused with panning tracks for the the "haas" trick with delaying one track within 5ms-25ms. so its still advised you work with that synth and effect unpanned to continue your work and after recording making your mixing easier, always worry about making you music sound pretty last and save it for post mixing/mastering.

you master is the over all level of all your tracks, your tracks will always be in mono from the start.

I agree with this as well to add panning when your done recording and get the ideas out then mix the tracks first in mono, because doing so while mixing will screw with your frequencys indeed and can cause post production problems, also worrying about mixing while your recording is not the best as well cause your not done recording, and your ideas are going to fly right out you! Some people who make tracks less then or equal to 2:00 have some great stuff.

Well mixing rhythm guitar in stereo is one thing i will have to say, and panning sometimes drum samples like cymbals

http://soundcloud.com/aires/primas-manus-wip wip 4 some sound changes and added stuff, this is 89% done, read sound cloud comment.

that sounds more like bass, and the other that you hear kind of loud. Steinberg Virtual Guitarist I. And yes, picking DOES sound way less robotic. ------------------------------ Ahh i see, like in your second demo, boost that bassliney rhythm, reduce the lead guitar a bit. Brick wall? Is there a preset? How do you explain this? ------------------- brick wall is a type of limiting for tracks with fast attacks like this, there should be a preset for this in almost any digital compressor, which also can let you boost the track a BIT with out clipping the track I'm using a random soundfont for the violin with reverb and. My lead tone sounds odd? I'm using Guitar Rig 4 for the lead. [ Echolead ] I'm also using Guitar Rig 4 and TH-1 Overloud for the rhythm guitars.

Just a thread for people to see and for newer music artist to take advice on and improve on, not to be confused with a query type thread. Just post mistakes you see and solutions, your post can be as long as you can type, and corrections are also welcomed. What I commonly see is people mixing Way too loud solution: mix low, theres a reason your mixer has a line/redzone that tells you one track is too loud, try not to let your sliders come close to that line unless your sound is a bit weak on loudness, or not loud at all. And use a compressor on master to boost your track with out clipping if you want to. or use a compressor to add energy to a track or depress a track

Listen to Iden by S.S.H tough as HELL! but compression of the entire song was Way to loud

kick drums are over compressed, snares are to hidden, i can tell the guitar is not fake indeed, its drop tuned for fast chords, but the tone is not terrible but could use some improvments, but the mic he used is REALLY good, but should position the mic better like adding more air bettween his amp/cab, also for most of the time you should NOT or try NOT quantize, nor edit guitar note/chord transitions, or it will make you guitar sound a bit synth. tell him to try and record the chords nicely and cleanly and just loop the recorded chords. This song is nearly the structure of a house track, but this is not a housetrack and should not be that repetitive on some parts unless your planning to loop this track, or you like it that way ;o the composition and the creativity is very well done. Not a bad track at all.
