I was doing a little test to see if anyone actually reads the TOTP, but I'm guessing we don't. With all the games mentioned there, I slipped in a Gin & Tonic that basically went.......well, down the drain.
 
I bet if it was Beer......

I've had one attack already today, but not as hard as yesterday. Just hope they are going away soon..
But marginally better today.

Re: NO POLITICS 2016/10/25 10:46:29 (permalink)
Just a general question for you guys (from a noobius mixer)...
 
I have 1 vocal track, 1 acoustic guitar track, and 1 synth that I mixed, and sounded nice/ok to me. I used Ozone 7 to master this (with one of the presets very slightly tweaked)....which also sounded very nice.
 
After converting it to an Mp3 (192 kHz) and listening to it here at work, I hear a lot of mids that need to be tamed (no buzzing or unpleasantness, but way too much mids IMO and just on the vocals only) that I don't recall hearing last night at my DAW.
 
If it isn't anything to do with the mp3 conversion, should I try to EQ the mids or?? (a different Mastering preset?)

I don't have Ozone, but know there is a multiband comp there. Do you use it? Maybe to much mid compression?
That would be my guess, but might not be worth the web it was written on

I'll have to go and check tonight....TBH, I just went through almost all of the presets, found what sounded good to my ears, tweaked it here & there, and did the mixdown (was rushing a bit to get it done and send it my family).
 
I picked the wrong day to give up EZMix.

If it isn't anything to do with the mp3 conversion, should I try to EQ the mids or?? (a different Mastering preset?)
 
 
 




At 192, mp3 should be essentially transparent with a decent modern encoder. There certainly would not be a difference in the frequency response, as that's not the way lossy encoding works, aside from the general filtering out of stuff > ~16kHz because it likely wouldn't be audible anyway.
 
My best guess would just be different speakers or speaker configuration.

 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

Thanks Drew, that helps....I'm listening at work on an older pair of Beats by Dre and playing it via Win Media player (without any enhancements/graphic eq etc..). You're probably right.....it might be the H-phones.  
 
On a different note.....if you guys have a few minutes, check out Desert_Duster in the Songs forum. I pulled a few guitar strings and Adrian (Biodiode) did all the synth/drums/production on this (our first collaboration). :)

Don't mind me, Mesh. I'm just laying here under the coffee machine. I don't have time to waste filling a mug. In addition, nothing wakes you up faster than third degree burns on your face.
