Hello SA peeps!
Just joined - Best $50 I’ve ever spent!
Let me start by saying that the courses here are beyond top notch / real professor level stuff to me. I’ve been immersed in watching videos non-stop since joining over the weekend and I’ve picked up more here in 2-3 days than I have in years fiddling about by ear
That said, I took a stab at applying what I’ve absorbed by producing an all new track:
SoundCloud - Hear the world’s sounds
What I am going for is a pretty standard, tight, progressive house sound (Deadmau5, Swedish House Mafia, etc…)
Re: the vocal - I have worked directly with this vocalist in the past and found this really nice vocal track while going through some old production files.
Tools used: Ableton 8, Sylenth1 (main stabs), Arturia Moog Mini (bass), Kick and snare resampled via Deadmau5, Multiband Dynamics plugin + Vintage Warmer on main output (as a limiter)
Would appreciate feedback on the sound quality /production as I know things can always sound better
Cheers,
M.
Nice synths and Melody man very nice sounds…i really enjoyed the track but i dont feel as the synths were loud enough the kick seemed to dominate the track maybe eq the synth to give it a lil more high end and brighter…other than that the track is good really enjoyed it man and welcome to the forum
Hey thanks for the feedback, it really helps. Glad you like the track too
Working on a more balanced mix for this track.
Will post new soundcloud link when I am done.

Spent some more time balancing the mix:cool:

nice track man
Thanks to all for the feedback, it’s been really helpful
Just made some more tweaks - better bass definition, vocals dropped a bit, lead synth brought up (with a little less distortion on the top end).
Also brought the gain down a little bit on the Vintage Warmer on the master output.
SoundCloud - Hear the world’s sounds
Thinking this may be it, getting ready to move on to a new track
Thanks again for listening,
M.
Just realized you can embed soundcloud tracks, here it is
Time 2 Luv U ft. Sarah Tancer - Progressive Edit (offamycloud) Mix IV by offamycloud
Pretty decent mate has all the right elements and your mix is sounding nice
I’d make the vocals a little more airy but thats just my opinion
