New Member Looking for some mix and master feedback

Post by kennyleeyoung » Fri Feb 25, 2022 2:19 pm

First things first...Thanks for taking a moment to read this!

My name if Kenny and I am a new Taxi Member. I would be grateful to get some feedback on specifically the mix and master of a new song that was created for a listing.

This Pop/Rock tune is called "Sealed with a Kiss" and the link is (https://wwwtaxi.com/members/kennyleeyoung)

I would be happy to know how I might be able to help anyone else in return. If there is a way that I can be of service to you don't hesitate message me.

CHEERS!

Kenny,
This is an outstanding song with tons of potential. The issues are the very things you are asking about...mixing and mastering. For the mix, first thing I notice is that the bass is way too loud. For mastering, you just cooked it way too much. What are you using for mastering software?

Bruddah! Thanks so much for posting the link and also the feed back. I see we are both in the 303 as well. I have been working with two other musicians in a private studio to cater to these listings. As long as we have been recording we are still learning so much when it comes to producing, mixing, and mastering so I can't express how much your response means. We use Ableton as a DAW and Ozone for mastering. Do you have any suggestions for other software? Is there anything that I or we can do for you in return? Please let me know if there is anyway we can be a resource to you.

Many Blessings
Kenny

Hi Kennyleeyoung,

Welcome to Taxi

Your song 'Sealed With A Kiss' seems to be mixed and mastered well to my ears.

I get the feeling the 'upfront' bass is part of your intended vibe of the song... right?

Just watch out for clipping.

I really like the syncopated feel rhythmically and your high vocals.

You're on to something here... make sure you just submit to listings weekly for success!

Feel free to comment on any of my songs https://www.taxi.com/members/Vo3iNlhJT- ... l-e-harris
