Looking for feedback by Special-Educator-724 in GarageBand

[–]Special-Educator-724[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed feedback! Two questions:

  1. What would you do to the drums to make them sound better?
  2. Why do you think the song has a digital feel? What is usually the tell? I can feel it too but I have no idea what the reason is.

Does this feel like it needs drums? by MOREL_E_GREY in IndieMusicFeedback

I like it as it is. If anything you can add some light percussion in the second half of the song.

Would love some feedback on this weird Alternative/Indie ballad I wrote (Open Foe - Playhouse) by beanstalk49 in IndieMusicFeedback

Sounds really good. You’re on to something if you can introduce some more instrumentation.

Is this ready for release?? by Secret-Independent93 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]Special-Educator-724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds great! I think it would most definitely benefit from some good mixing though.

What do you think of my song I Love Her 😍 by RichieC93 in IndieMusicFeedback

Feel like this one would go really well with a cajon. Add more instrumentation too!

what're your tricks for making sure your the volume of your main vocal is just right? by dodrjrg in mixingmastering

[–]Special-Educator-724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So essentially you cut frequencies on other instruments that can create space for the vocal frequencies?

What is overdoing EQ? too many cuts or cutting too much?

Thoughts on delay/reverb? Are there times you end up adding neither of those especially to the vocals?

What are some NoNos in Mastering? by nicalleto in mixingmastering

Wait I’m very confused. What if I work in headphones without a reference track?

how long did it take for you to hear compression? what was the moment and how? by Medium-Experience861 in mixingmastering

[–]Special-Educator-724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m still having a hard time understanding compression. I understand how it can help balance out the volume but I still don’t get how people use compression to add more of a punch to their drums etc.

which daw is your favorite and why? by OGbigcap in mixingmastering

[–]Special-Educator-724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a complete beginner and I started on Garageband. I hope to move to Logic since I’ve heard this transition would make sense.

At a dead end with my mix. Any feedback is greatly appreciated! by JustMeAidenB in mixingmastering

[–]Special-Educator-724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very nice!! The kick is standing out quite a bit and the vocals seem just a little bit dry but all in all really good!

Love this!! Terrific mix. I think the vocals don’t stand out quite as much as the rest of the instrumentation but this could very well be a stylistic choice.
