Hello All<\/strong>,<\/p>\n

Here are your basic mixes from the session on January 20th, 2017 with Mr Wix. I hope you’ll find them acceptable and pleasant to listen to!<\/p>\n

I wrote some comments below each mix, however certain types of procedures applied to ALL mixes.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n

All the tracks have YOUR playing on them. I didn’t add or delete any instruments. I did, however, TIGHTEN all<\/em> your parts.<\/p>\n

All drum and bass parts have been quantized and smoothed out. In most cases, the guitars – and sometimes the bass – also needed extra tuning, plus an occasional bum note needed editing.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n

The vocals usually needed some (subtle) re-tuning, and occasionally also re-phrasing.<\/p>\n

In a few places it wasn’t quite clear what your intended arrangement was, so then I made corrections based on what I felt would work (only very few such instances).<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n

Finally, all the tracks got treated with simple compression, general EQ’s, etc. The “Cleaned Up” mixes below are what your (well-rehearsed) bands can\/should sound like live.<\/p>\n

Many of your songs have good potential, though most would benefit from revisions. Still – REALLY well done to all of you!!<\/p>\n

Best \ud83d\ude42 p<\/p>\n
