yep, still though, the wide range of opinions I've receive on and off
lists has given me about half a dozen things to try.

oh, ok, if that is the sound he was looking for then, yeah, I'd
trust his opinion, and if that client happens to be! Bryan, then I'd
really! trust his opinion. LOL! I'd listen to him long before
listenning to me! LOL! This guy knows quite a huge amount when it
comes to Audio Production/mixing, so yeah... that's what my ears
caught, but if that is what he wants, then go with what he says.

Hi Chris. The client is happy with the track and actually asked
that the snare be fattened up. (grin)
It's interesting how opinions differ on this stuff and I'm just out
to learn more as I go.

Personally, I didn't find it all that bad. OK, yeah, the drums
might have been just a tad bit too loud in the mix, but I said a
slight! bit. I'm not kidding when I say, it really wasn't! that
bad at all. I think if you was to turn down the drums by maybe 1
to 1 and a half DB, I'd say 2 at most, pushing it to the extreme,
you'd be ok. Yeah, you probably could have rolled off some of the
lows of the drums, especially the snare, but you'd want to be
really careful doing so. You almost have it sitting where it
needs to be, so if you go too far with it, it's going to sound
terrible, as there would be no low ends at all. I agree with
Papa. It's very good. There is! an issue with the drums, I'll
admit, but like him, I can't quite put my finger on it. Try
turning them down about maybe a DB and a half, then send it back
to us to hear again. That should! do the trick. Pre-Processing,
before you route the drums through any effects, or compressers,
etc. just the raw dry mix of the over all drums, what is it
peeking at with your meters at its highest point?
Chris.

Hello Chris, nice overall mix. The only thing that stands out to
me is the bass and the drum. I am not sure if the drum has to
many low frequencies that need to be cut and then boost some of
the higher frequencies around maybe 150HZ. Or, it could be a
compression thing I think I am hearing, either way, it sounds
like there is a little pumping between the kick and the bass.
Keep in mind, I could be wrong in my diagnosis, but I like the
mix with the exception of that little aspect that seems to stand out to me.

Hi folks.
I mixed and mastered an easy listening track for Brian Howerton
recently, and since I haven't mixed something lighter like this
before, I thought I would ask for opinions on it. Here's a 48-second sample:
https://www.sendspace.com/pro/dl/7bhny7
So, what do you like and more importantly, what do you not like?
What would you have done differently?
For instance, I was too attached to the drum sound, but after
Brian asked for them to be turned down, I now appreciate the
improvement. After all, without a vocalist, the piano really is
the main event here.
By the way, if this is your thing, contact Brian at
bshowert...@gmail.com Thanks Brian, for the work, and for
patience as I got my ears together, after not mixing for ages.
Chris
