jane Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Hi everyone I love, love, love this track by the band Faunts (plays over the credits of the first Mass Effect), so working on putting it together... totally freaking out about the vocals, they are out of my range completely. Hooray! Be nice please this song already makes me emotional. https://soundcloud.com/tobosaurus/jane-im-half-dead-reporting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darangen Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 It's pretty close to the original. It's hard to hear a lot of what's going on because it's so muddy though. Use an EQ to roll off the lows (start around 100hz and move it around a bit until find a good spot that doesn't sacrifice the quality of the sound) from any instrument that isn't considered a bass instrument and that should clear up a lot of it. When you have a lot of guitars and strings/pads sometimes you'll have to scoop out some low mid frequencies as well, around 200-250hz. The playing and singing are done pretty well, kudos on that. Just practice those vocals so you can hit those notes easier I'd recommend trying to make this your own a bit more, add some new ideas so that people listening will hear something new. It's really long too, since it's so close to the original which is also long. I'm a fan of longer songs, but a lot of people aren't. Good stuff!
