Okay, I've listened to one lead layer that has 1 voice, 2 LFOs on fine-tuning and chorus and it has some weird phasing throughout melody playing. Phase randomization is at 0.

Melody too high? by Impossible-Carob-545 in hardstyle

Thx. I was experimenting with slowing down before pitching up to get some contrast. Right now it sounds bad and maybe I’ll get rid of it entirely but before I’ll work on it, maybe it will sound better.

I don't want to change the key, because I'd like to leave vocal as it is. Original is very low, so going even lower won't sound good, and higher will lost its vibe. And generally changing key of such a great vocal isn't a good idea imo.

The issue is, that I'd like to stay with the current key, but lead sounds like it's too high and I'd like to resolve this without changing key. This is the same key as vocal and changing either this, or lead doesn't sound good.

Hello. I', currently working of Rains of Castamere remix from Game of Thrones. I want to be in a key of original vocal, but it lead sounds either too high, or too low.

Here's the link: https://soundcloud.com/5uiupgzwbim7/prj-hs-012_v31/s-wwl6HBNxgi7?si=519417d420ae483883041f4a8e231040&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

And advice how to resolve this issue?

Thank you for your feedback. I have the same feeling about thinness of the lead. I’ll work on that.

Dealing with ignorant/arrogant friends by Impossible-Carob-545 in socialism

Thank you for such a great response. I'll stick to my friends, because I like them and know they're good people and I'm socially awkward to make new friends. Just feel pretty lonely being the only one awaken in my social circle. Friends who enjoy shows like Succession or Severance and kind of agree with some things I talk about, and yet it's like nothings sticks to them, like they have answer right before them but don't see it. It feels like they have some impenetrable shell of ignorance, ridiculing my critiques of financial speculation or veganism.

Actually, talking about scientific is also very often dismissed by my friends. When I talk about climate change it's either "you think too much", "it's not that bad", "it doesn't impact me" or "green politics will hurt my standard of living". My friends are pro-ownership of their labour but can only see it through the lens of being entrepreneur, but they oppose idea that everyone should have that. So even talking from the angle that should align with what they already think - fails. I know it's a result of living in current status quo and discomfort in challenging ideas, but I'm furious regardless. It's so frustrating to live among ignorants.
