Thanks Z!Zaychi wrote: ↑Wed Jun 30, 2021 2:18 pmThe structure of the vocal (stopping early on the phrases, starting late) makes it so that there are several sections where all that's left is the guitar just strumming a single chord (for example, 0:25-0:33 and 0:50-0:58). You either have to make these more interesting, or cut them short (leave a bar out?).
The low vocal sounds fine to me, but the vocal overall needs much more production, like a short delay, targeted compression, EQ, de-essing, and ideally detailed pitch correction as well. I also agree that is too far back in the mix. A more confident delivery overall would help, try recording them again in a less dreamy, more "statement" way.
But the seed is absolutely there!
I hear what you're saying about that guitar chord strumming between phrases. I do like the spacing, but it does need something more interesting; especially if it happens at the end of each verse. You're also correct on the pitch correction. There's a couple of spots where it's slightly out, so I can go in and redo those parts.
I like the idea about the confident statement delivery. I'm going to track the guitars and vocals all over again, and try to do it with that in my head. =)
Cheers,
