Thanks for some ideas there. Yeah, I'll pull up the bass more in the mix and the guy who did it said it needed a little more speration. I have it pretty close to the bass drum and maybe the bass drum is too loud? It's not mastered. I don't really know a whole lot about mastering. I just use the Boost-11 limiter plug-in to give it more loudness.
had the bass drum in the center, snare at 11% to the left-it changes in the song to the other side... and cymbals are panned somewhere to the right.
I'll try to change the chorus on the drum section. I should've known it needed more on the drums. I'm not that adept at drums really. Used SD2. I'd prefer to have a good drummer do the drums personally, but alas-no drummer around!
The warm pad-just the synthesizer sound? Hmmm.
My bro thought the bass was too repetitious so I had it subdued in the mix, but he get's that way with a lot of a songs.
I like some of the refrain on the guitar, some of the guitar sounds aren't anything spectacular and the intro IMO is not really outstanding. I used my bros electric strat and recorded from his techie Fender amp into my M-Audio Mobile pre unit. ran into some sound problemts on the buzz/noise, you might have noticed in the intro. Not sure how to get that out well.
Yeah, I don't listen to that many songs in the songs forum. It's kinda rare. I hear what you're saying though.
I'll redo some stuff before I mail it in to this one college radio station. I'll try to see if I can figure out some rhythmic interest with the guitar somehow! Thanks again for some feedback.
