I have been working on mixing as I have been finding it difficult to locate someone who would do it for me for a good price and seeing that Sonar is an all rounder. I decided to dabble in to it my self. So im learning at the moment hopefully I will get better.
 
Room is totally untreated so I know im not the best at it but im having a good go!
 
Here is my latest offering

Thanks for listening
 
ps opinions are welcome

Hi Shaun,
 
Listening through headphones the mix sounds quite nice, if a little thin.
 
Don't know if you're looking for comments on the arrangement, but I found this kind of 'one level' - by the 2 min mark nothing had changed much. I was wanting that bass/kick pattern to strengthen into something a little more straightforward to nail the groove down.
 
All personal opinions of course

No good I want advice on it because im doing it on my own with no input from anyone else. So its important to enhance my thinking and my skills.
 
Thanks James
Im still learning and wanting that warm sound not too thin so im working on that too!
 
I watched a video where the first thing they did was have the singer sing in to the mic until they got his tone right. No recording, no mixing just making sure they have his tone. Is this something that is done all the time.
 
Do you guys do this?

I think its got something to do with recording at 6db instead of any higher so I'm squashing the signal.
What happened to the song forums it used to be so lively or is it just me

It's not as busy as it was a few years back, but the general rule applies, that if you comment on other people's stuff, they generally return the favour. Some still don't though.

Oh I hope i'm in that league to give my erm professional opinion.
 
It was really buzzing at one stage I was really really hooked to the forums...!
