Moseph Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I love the arrangement. The mix seems a bit muddy and lacking in high-end; you might have good results trying a harmonic exciter on it. The stereo positioning works for me, but the soundfield still feels a bit cramped. I think it's because there's not much front-to-back depth, which is mostly a reverb/early reflections thing. Some of the percussion seems really dry compared to everything else, and I think the brass levels could stand to be raised a bit -- the strings are dominating right now.

Thanks a lot for your comment, I made the changes to the best of my abilities, it might be lacking in some aspects instead now I'm not sure. v.2 http://tindeck.com/listen/wamqj - added pre-delay on the instruments that are supposed to be further back. - made brass louder. - gave the percussion more reverb (the marimba/xylophone might be dry still not sure). - changed the eq on some higher frequency instruments. - lowered percussion eq on low end (3-450 hz~). - made stereo seperation tighter for bass and mid, seperation wider for highs. - lowered the total mids volume slightly. - slight compression for bass volume. - different warmth/tube settings I think than previous version (SO MANY VERSIONS). I think that's the changes I did, or most of them at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
