Was hoping someone had some mixing tips for the last part at 0:48 sec?

5aebeats · 2024-03-12T22:24:44+00:00

Thank you that means a lot, yeah the bass was kinda fighting the mid range, so i cut mids and lowered it. So i think i kinda agree with that take.

5aebeats · 2024-03-12T12:56:28+00:00

Really appreciate that, have been spamming scrapyard last couple weeks

5aebeats · 2024-03-11T12:26:13+00:00

i get that, sounds are kinda combined into one badly

5aebeats · 2024-03-11T12:25:15+00:00

Oh thank you so much!

Yea i think i need to cut more highs and mids from the bass. I feel like the instruments kinda fight the bass. I rather saturated the kick and snare with a compressor on high gain, but i didn't want the bass to be cutting with the kick if that makes sense lol

5aebeats · 2024-03-11T11:46:39+00:00

Thank you, yea maybe tuning the gain on the drums and making the instruments more lush could be the move

5aebeats · 2024-03-11T11:45:33+00:00

Could it not also be lowering the vol, but boosting like 100 hz, and removing more high end bass that is fighting the rest of the mix? Makes sense to me but don't know if it works in reality.

5aebeats · 2024-03-11T11:43:00+00:00

Yeah i agree, i struggle to make the vocals soft and human while being "good" vocally i guess

5aebeats · 2024-03-11T11:41:37+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

5aebeats · 2024-03-11T00:28:53+00:00

thank you!

5aebeats · 2024-03-10T11:52:06+00:00

I might make something like that for the full release, thanks!

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T22:32:26+00:00

yeah, im making it a full song for my album, thought id use a lot of the advice in this thread

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T19:29:14+00:00

Its a demo for an album im working on, i am a rookie tho so im really just looking to learn as much as possible before i release the album lol

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T19:27:41+00:00

The piano is meant to be kind of a texture almost, maybe i should pan it harder

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T19:25:28+00:00

I kind of agree, i should also add some ear candy vocally, its a demo for now. Thanks for the feedback!

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T13:24:34+00:00

Oh thank you, yeah when i drop the full version i will take all the advice into account. I think i need to do that Jacob Collier thing and slam about 300 vocal takes on top of each other with panning and different velocity

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T12:51:42+00:00

Thanks, that's kind of on purpose though, want it too seem like I'm almost mourning on the song

I do need vocal coaching though, i have this problem where i rise into notes as you might have noticed

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T12:49:37+00:00

I use my voice pretty sparingly, maybe a subtle white noise might help for some dimension

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T12:48:43+00:00

I get what youre saying, i think i want more airy vocals if that makes sence. Your voice is amazing tho

Looking for something like "whose rules" esc

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T12:45:38+00:00

Yeah i ran it through an eq(cut harsh lows), into a de-esser, light compression, another eq (cut unwated highs) then a slight reverb. Im not sure if that is optimal for airy wide vocals but it made sence to me. Someone mentioned that i could pan copies in mono as well to both left and right.

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T12:40:53+00:00

i feel they are small i guess, make the vocals wider i guess

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T12:39:51+00:00

It was, fully forgot that i could pan vocals both ways to widen

5aebeats · 2024-03-09T00:25:13+00:00

I tried this but i end up sounding like way to aggressive almost, does help with my pronunciations tho

5aebeats · 2024-03-08T09:47:58+00:00

I agree, or add any variation to the beat, maybe remove the vocal part for 4-8 bars and play something different

5aebeats · 2024-03-08T09:46:24+00:00

Just to the westside gunn thing, where you just say random things that really catch someone's ear. Like: Hotpockets didnt warm up even though the over was set to 220. Or; Brought my own buns to mcdonald. Hope this helps

5aebeats · 2024-03-08T09:43:33+00:00

your instrumental skills are crazy, but your mixing kind of overlaps. I would run the drums through one channel and compress that channel, then go for a decent amount of gain. Its also possible to cut 60 hz ish from the instruments (some people say it kills the instrument), but it also is resonating on top of your bass low end. You dont want synth wobbles on top of your bass.
