Very well done!!! The back track is really nice! I would put debbizo’s voice a little bit more in the front of the mix, maybe check the voice’s eq… But anyways this is a very good mix!

Yeah, I had a lot of problems with getting the vocals part sound right. Totally agree with you they could be more upfront. Hmm… now that you mentioned adjusting the EQ, I should try that next time (was thinking of adding Compression then… and that didn’t seem to work). Thanks for the tip. Glad you liked the backing track!

Quote: panu moonduplicate the vocal to a total of 4 tracks, keep 2 in the middle & pan the other two L20 R20.Thanks man. Tried your suggestion and it sounds a tad clearer now — though I mix with my earphones only and not sure if what I hear is what the rest of the world hears. Anyway, what I hear is also that the panning 20 (Vs my original Panning 45+) makes a difference. Thanks for the tip again.

…I had the same thought as it was a bit difficult to hear the spoken word. I like the arrangement of the vocals though. Maybe I could help by re-recording the spoken word…I do have a soft voice and it often needs a boost. |

Wow great mix and arrangement Ivan. Your (real) guitar definately adds the epic feel at :48 1:00 and 2:20 - somethin ya just cant get from a vst! Thanks for creating this off my stems, its an awesome feeling.
I’ll have to try what you did next mix - splitting riffs 3 ways it sounds really good. |

Cool beans, Ivan. Neat to discover we both went for spoken word arrangements, even though I hadn’t heard this before my own mix. I like the high energy guitar harmonies. It’s always hard to get the mix you want when there are so many possibilities, but thanks of the “how I did it”.

Thanks for commenting, Revlin. It’s always nice to have someone leave a comment on an earlier upload. Makes me revisit the work and helps me gauge my progress :) You’re welcome re: the “how I did it”. In fact, I’m glad I posted it ‘cos I’ve forgotten how I did the mix LOL
