ditto ditto, I’ve heared it and agree!

The sound is a problem though. I suspect it’s the low bit rate of 64k.
KT - please! - take 128k or even better 192k for encoding.
(This also applies to your sample and pella uploads…)

these are at 128 k, 3rd attempt. I am not defending the mixing, but just to let you know I am interested in higher trebley sounds. You should not be having a problem with the pella, as they are clean, without fx and within normal parameters.If you dislike their quality, move on to others.

ok 3rd attempt. Even though I was thoroughly prepared to hate your guts, you have actually unearthed a problem for me, for which I am eternally grateful. I had spent all this time and money on a high end pre-amp, mic and carefully edited my setting in ableton 6 to be of highest quality. However, I had gotten a new mac laptop and neglected to customize the settings on itunes (to which all my stuff is automatically imported), therefore completely diminishing all my hard work at better sound. I had to eat some crow yesterday, and now again it seems I am dining on the black oily bird. The settings are now at 96k mono, the highest itunes allows and I kicked up to khz to 44.1 I hope this helps, but it has helped me. Everyday is a school days I suppose. Sheesh!

Hi Kaer. I’ve been hearing your work since I enter the site and I haven’t seen this discussion… I don’t understand so much of the problem, or maybe your response. If you got a preamp and a mic, thats all you need. I don’t know the problem of itunes. you can record with a semi pro program (I dont know if ableton records. I suppose so). For that purpose you can use a program for music edition (I don’t know why the issue in itunes). If your machine supports records in 96k is ok. But I suggest to record in 44100 But in 32 bit, and then convert thru a good dithering sistem to 44100 16 bit. I think the bit depth is more important than the frequency. (in my opinion).

Pd: I asked for your lyrics on My apocalypse. I’ve been working on the song (I’m masterizing now). It’s been a while ‘cause I was doing something else, but I hope to upload the song next week. Hope you will like it.

It’s all simply…great..(except the the balance like i’ve said). Your choice of sound, the way that you built this piece, the originality, your interpretation…all is great…It’s unbelievable…!!!!! It’s a pity this problem of sound, because all your harmonic work is a little “bury”. But, it could be interesting that you play with the mono/stereo. On the first part (the first verse), you could stay in mono, and open the stereo when the bass is coming. I love this moment when it starts and the harmonic changement comes. On the second half of the piece, you could bring something else, i don’t know what, but just a little changement, harmonic, or melodic, it looks like too to the first part of the song (i’m maybe not very clear, but i don’t know how to explain that). You really impressive me, sincerely, but something else irritate me…Heeeyyyy ccMixter’ friends…don’t you hear that this girl is GENIUUUUUS…!!!!

“Heeeyyyy ccMixter’ friends…don’t you hear that this girl is GENIUUUUUS…!!!!”

Very True. Count me in as a fan too.

But I agree with dd about the sound. Sounds like an old cassette demo unfortunately (not necessarily a bad thing). The music is very, very solid though.
