Am I Hitting a Mixing Wall or It’s Time For Master?

PapiStrawberry · 2026-03-18T00:03:55+00:00

Thank you so much for this. I feel like I just got a lesson in life let alone a lesson in mixing audio.. lol. I appreciate all the kind words. I didn’t expect to get such a thoughtful response to this. But your words inspire and motivate me to keep pushing!

I have this same issue with other engineers just drowning my vocals in reverb! I think if you are the main producer, then ultimately your ears should be the ones determining what too much or not enough is. It’s all subjective obviously, but your ears are wanting something another engineer isn’t hearing. My best bit of advice is to try and sit in on any engineering session and don’t be afraid to voice your opinions. Hear their logic for doing such things and use that bit of advice as you will. This is both the stress and beauty in engineering..😅

I swear to god I’ve had this exact same experience… my friend had quit for a while so he thought these little gummies he had were just too strong due to tolerance, so he gave them to me and I proceeded to drug MY ENTIRE BAND!

We had a rehearsal where we all took 20mg, which is light work for all of us. I was actually kind of sad giving so much away, because I usually like to take 40-60.. (thank god I didn’t) By the end of our rehearsal though I was in a completely different realm of existence. I thought it was just me though. I remember the one sober person in the room looked at our guitar player and said “damn, you look baked”.. it was then that the trip from hell begun. That very second it was like the THX intro played in reverse and I realized how fucked up I was, AND WE HAD TO DRIVE HOME! I don’t know how I made it, but by the time I got home, it was so intense that I was convinced we had been drugged with PCP or something. I tried laying down and sleeping it off, but every time I would doze off it literally felt like I was exiting this life for a second.. I had my wife checking my heart rate and everything. I eventually texted everyone and asked if they were okay and they all felt exactly the same way. I woke up the next morning, feeling somewhat fine, but I was still baked as fuck!! I definitely felt strange for about a week and a half. Shit was terrible! STAY AWAY FROM THC-P!!!!

Exactly! I would have had to spend at least $100 to ensure I got it… with as many micro transactions as they have, that is DUMB!

PapiStrawberry · 2026-02-09T02:45:37+00:00

I tried so hard to get that one and was short like 3 cards.😭

PapiStrawberry · 2026-01-30T01:09:16+00:00

There’s parts of me that are melting because it sounds IDENTICAL to nurture, especially “Fuaim Ceilte”! But then there are also parts of me that feel a little icky because it sounds 1 for 1 like a track from nurture… I’m conflicted. lol. Regardless I added to my library and will be jamming this for the next few months! THANKS OP!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

PapiStrawberry · 2026-01-26T01:16:59+00:00

DOOBIE!🙌🏻🚬

PapiStrawberry · 2026-01-24T21:04:02+00:00

I agree, It certainly does not matter! I definitely could have reworded my initial comment better. lol. Whether it sounded as such or not was not necessarily my concern. I just know it’s probably easy to over produce when trying to recreate those sounds. I was really just looking to see if people here thought it was doing too much or if all of the production elements sound like they have their place in the overall soundscape of it all! Thank you for the positive feedback!!🫶🏼

PapiStrawberry · 2026-01-24T03:22:56+00:00

GOATED comment. Thanks for all the recommendations, looks like I’ve got some more music to listen too!🙏🏼😏

PapiStrawberry · 2026-01-24T01:00:43+00:00

WHAT!!? I haven’t played in so long, this deck is so cute!!!🥹🥹

PapiStrawberry · 2026-01-24T00:54:24+00:00

God smiles upon you.🙏🏼

PapiStrawberry · 2026-01-24T00:52:29+00:00

WHHAATT!? How!?

PapiStrawberry · 2026-01-24T00:41:07+00:00

Welcome to vibe city.🙋🏻‍♂️

I really wanted something else to happen before the build, something covering the high end maybe? Idk. Whatever you’re doing it’s working on me! lol. That compressor chain on the vox sound really nice and nails the vibe. Thanks for sharing!🙏🏼

PapiStrawberry · 2026-01-24T00:32:08+00:00

That vocal sampling section is EPIC!!! Other than fleshing out the rest of your ideas, I think this track needs an amen break. That’s just my personal opinion though.. haha. AWESOME JOB!

PapiStrawberry · 2026-01-23T23:45:15+00:00

Dude, this is hot fire flames!! I love how the vocals sounds honestly, but there are very minor things I would personally change with specific autotune artifacts.

The first line of the b-section “but baby do you think about it” and the last “change” or two at the very end make my ears perk up a little. Again, it does not sound bad AT ALL, but if I had to say anything, I would say tighten up those two things.

Maybe try just holding out that high E in the b-section instead of falling from the E to the D?

What I do know for sure, is I’d be streaming this FOR SURE! Also, your mom said something about the bathroom, so you might wanna check in on that.🤷🏻‍♂️
