PIANO UNDERSCORE cue (Due July 14)

Post by mwb2 » Mon Jul 12, 2021 2:35 pm

Hi all - any ears on this are most appreciated! I struggled a bit with where to put edit points and could especially use ears on the mix, in particular that the piano is mixed "underscore-friendly" enough. I tried a bit of multiband compression and dynamic EQ but not a ton so as to not alter the tone too much, hope it's enough.

Avery enjoyable piece, does not seem to get in the way.
I find that the first "stop" should have the natural decay of the piano/reverb, feels too much abrupt as it is at the moment. The 2nd edit point works, because of the sustained synth. And the ending is IMHO too abrupt, agein natural decay is your friend there

All aspects of the mix sound great to me. (Except the very final chord. Did the reverb tail get accidentally cut?)

One chord 1:23 could use better voice leading beforehand.

Nice piece..yeah all edit points are abrupt and the ending too. Try a sustained note and with the use of automation fade gently out with the right curve and time.
