Final Fantasy IX "You Are Not Alone!"

[Artomis]

Hi all, I've just started really getting into remixing music and this is the first song I'm really posting to public ears, but none-of-the-less, I want your honest opinions on what you think.

DivShare File - You_re Not Alone!.mp3

[Rozovian]

Well, if you're planning to get on ocr some day, you should work on rearranging the song, not just switching out instruments and adding things.

There's some clipping in here, which is when there's too much volume for the file to handle. This is easily solved by using a Limiter as the last effect ont he master channel.

For a first posted remix, this isn't bad, tho. There's a lot you need to learn, but I'll let you work those out for yourself. Read stuff, like zircon's compendium for production, and put this song in a playlist with your favorite remixes, see how they compare. Listen critically, listen for things you can change in your works. Take backups. Don't give up.

Good luck.

And never pay attention to Snappleman, cuz he couldn't properly critique to save his life

Hoboka, it's immature to bring up old issues into new forums. Yes, Snappleman is harsh (especially to new people, if he finds them), but he isn't on this forum, is he? Please keep that to yourself unless it becomes relevant; it keeps the forums from being cluttered with junk...

As for this piece, the clipping is terrible. Rozovian gave some suggestions to follow, so I'd listen to him; he's a smart guy, here

The instruments are a bit bland, too... I'd recommend changing them up a bit.

It's not that bad, really; like Rozovian said, we've gotta start somewhere, right? Keep posting - it'll help you as a remixer overall
