Prio Alea Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Here's a little fun track I've worked on. This song: imagine a gangbang with electro, house and psy with 8-bit bukkakke. Parental Advisory! No real title yet, but it is available for download here: http://www.speedyshare.com/572537429.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waveshapist Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Totally low fi, I liked the track, and the ideas: but!! Either you put a compressor on your master bus, during your mix render or: You made this far to loud when you did your "home style mastering" This is about 20 decibels, louder than a major label mix. I am not being critical, of you or your music. This is a very cool idea, the track you have made here. It is just too loud, to listen too. You should not have to add more than +6 to a mastering limiter, furthermore, and this seems to cause a lot of arguments on the world wide web, you should not have a compressor on your master bus while rendering a mix. Let me know, if you make a quieter mix, with less post production, digital clipping, I will listen again, and enjoy the track a lot more... Cheers Mate...

Prio Alea Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 Shit, that's what you get when you don't listen to the track after export and upload! I was lazy and I had heard it so much lately. :drama: I was fiddling around with different FX just before and I see now that I forgot compressor on master exactly as you said! Re-exporting and uploading now. Update: Hopefully fixed, but I'm not really that good with mastering. Even though I have been doing music for 8 years or so.

waveshapist Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 "I see now that I forgot compressor on master exactly as you said!" Ok, let me make just quick clarification. You forgot you left a compressor on your master bus, yes? I am not suggesting to put one there. If you have one there, take it off. Re-render, re-upload.. I will give a new listen. :-) Cheers Mate... ----------- Ok, edit -- I am giving new listen now... I will post again in few minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waveshapist Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Ok, I have listened to new version of track..... This is a fantastic track. I like the ideas and LoFi so much. You have a few home' style, mastering problems you need to practice to fix. This is much better than before. Very trippy, very cool track Cheers Bro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will give a new listen. :-) Yes, I was being silly and added flangers, phasers and all kind of stuff on the master channel just to have some fun. Forgot to remove the compressor after I was done though. Ok, I have listened to new version of track..... This is a fantastic track. I like the ideas and LoFi so much.

I'm very aware of my mastering skills or lack there of. I don't have ideal monitors either so, I do what I can. Add laziness to the mix and we got a nice party going.

Otto Matta Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Pretty cool track, Prio. It's creative and interesting, although I could personally use some more drastic change and variety in the sections to keep my interest all the way through.

Colin OOOD Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Wow heh that's pretty filthy. In a good way! It seems like a very playable track, with a good consistent character throughout, and the intro and outro would be perfect for mixing. I think you've done pretty well given you have no real studio monitors but I wonder if a little more clarity would be possible without losing the dirt. Great track though, it all hangs together very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prio Alea Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 Thanks guys! And Colin you are correct, the intro + outro were made for mixing in mind. Also the filthiness was something I tried to achieve. I wanted it to be a dirty little whore! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
