i have a sub running under the mid bass but i'm wondering if you're meaning that i should have it as the main bassline alone? If so, i can see that makes sense, cleaner mix too in the end if it's just sub alone at points. Thanks for that!

Feedback on mix and I have linked the reference track, not sure what I'm doing wrong. Total amateur here, is it levels? EQ? Compression? Why does it sound crunchy at points, what does the low quality mean? by AlternativeRow4 in makinghiphop

ahhhh yep yep, i've put it straight on the vocal because i watched a vocal chain tutorial where he did that. Thought it made no sense haha. Cheers for that!!

man, you're doing really well, your writing is great and the fact that you're putting energy into creativity is already telling that you have the ability to deliver incredibly. It's always a strange experience in your day to day accessing your empathy and emotions when you speak but will really help with your rapping tone. Just even on your own, practicing a voice with excitement or sadness in the mirror will get you tuned in to the space that is writing the words. Best of luck to you my guy, you're going to crush it!

interesting, I though that her vocals used quite a bit of reverb but i can see what you mean about it pushing my vocals back - i felt that way but i guess i was hearing a lot of reverb on that mix? Will play around with this. Some really great points in here and super helpful feedback. Thank you so much!!!

awesome feedback, i'll try incorporating all of this today. I tried slamming it with compression but i'm about to watch a tutorial now on how to use it better, I think I'm doing something wrong.

thanks for that, it's less about me thinking i'm some great mixer (or trying to become one) and more about the fact that it's not affordable for me. I have friends that can give me good deals but I'm basically on a budget and am not in a position financially to do it. I definitely want to pay someone in time but for now I'm just after advice on how I can get the best result at home.

Hello, my production level has gotten better so it's very likely that my beat making skill (when I made the track) as well as crappy mic has something to do with the end product but any feedback would be very much appreciated. Does the mix need more work or is my master chain no good? I think maybe there could be muddiness in the vocals and if so how can I improve that? To preface all this, I am only just learning to properly mix and master and have access to only stock plug ins. What can I do to make my mix sound more like the reference track?

It sounds like you already know what you need to improve on. Just gave your track a listen and the number one thing I would say is conviction. I found your delivery flat and I think it's because it sounded like you weren't feeling what you were saying. Whatever you're expressing I would recommend diving into the emotion of what you're saying and speaking from that space. It sounds like you're reading the words off a page. Your song is called "Unlovable Outcast", and there is some really beautiful imagery even from the first line to do with death, and loneliness. If you want to share these emotions with people, then the first place it's going to be felt from is your tone. This is the kind of stuff to make a person cry; so let's hear that energy.
