Im not sure if I like the bass synth. I had just changed it yesterday, and am not sure I like it, so it might change a tad. o.0

again...

Nice work Boeko,

I really dig the dark element to this one. It's got a great flow, and enough variation throughout to keep me really listening. I quite like the highs in particular.

I must say, I like the ambient trip you're on at the moment. Very, very nice stuff.

I need some help with this

I've listened to this track, and switched the bass riff around too much to know what sounds good, and what doesnt anymore.

My question. Did I kill the bassline in this version I uploaded? I mean,, does it sound foreign to the piece as a whole?
I just can't tell anymore..

Thanks m8's Smiling

I think

it sounds fine to me. Although I haven't heard what the bass line was originally, so can't fairly judge how much it's changed.

I don't think that this riff now sounds out of place in any case. It definitely helps the track achieve a nice dark, eerie character (if that's what you were going for!).

Could it be a case of working on the track too much?

Thats...

...exactly the case m8. I've listened to this track way too much (as I do all my tracks). so much that I couldnt separate the bassline from the main riff.
Very frustrating. lol.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I think Im going to keep it as is, but see if I can clean it up a tad, without taking away from the raunchy feel of the bassline.

Remastered this track

I learned a couple new techniques that Im trying out in the mastering stages. Its a pretty cool compression technique. In short, I split the signal, route one signal uncompressed out to the mixer ch.1. The other signal, I chain through a compressor, simple reverb (wet/dry purposes), then out to ch.2 on the mixer. I set ch.1 to %100 (uncompressed signal), and ch.2 (compressed signal) downplayed about 30% from ch. 1's volume.
Its adding a lot more balls and equality to the track.

Since I don't have a proper P.A., if anyone reads this, and cares to help out by telling me how it sounds on a PA, send me a message, and I'll send you a copy thats not using this technique, and one that is, so you can see the difference, and tell me if its more punchy, and/or if it sounds good on a PA at all.
Thanks a lot. Smiling

Uploaded the re-mastered version. enjoy. Smiling

Just what the doctor ordered

Hey Boeko,

Chaining the baseline as you've done has really taken any sort of raw edge off of it, and added a bit more of an under-lying pulse to it (if you follow). I think it is just what this track needed.

I suspect that on a PA it will sound heaps better than the old version (as is my understanding of the effects of chain compression on sounds). I wish I had one as I'd love to hear that growling riff full blast.

Great job, mate. I really like this.

the dirty sinister vibe, nice clicky claps!

Love it when the new riff comes in around 2.30

This album is going to be a must have.
