B33J Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Another quick way you can tell is (for audibly seasoned people, albiet), is if you cannot distinctly hear each instrument in the soundscape. When instruments start "running together" and you cannot tell where one begins and the other ends, is an aloof, mediocre, metaphorical way of explaining it. Maybe in the same way when someone says a song is "too muddy" or such. The "muddy" part would be the purple area in Dr. Rod's graphics above. As like Dr. Rod, I've been learning music and how to use Reason for the past 3-4 months, not very long. But I'd like to think I understand the concept of what sounds good and what doesn't. Nice posts by the way, Dr. Rod! And many kudos to Zircon as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anosou Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Dr. Rod, thanks for enlightening others. Why don't you put together something like your two posts and ask someone to sticky it? It would be a nice visual complement to zircon's guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
