I can barely hear it. What happened?

yamomma said:

Really?? My guy mixed it down and used the L2 on it. I didn't think it was loud enough on the CD he gave me. What do you want me to do?

Let me play with some settngs and if you don't like it, upload a new one tonight.

artist08 said:

Ok...good enough!

Old version: http://newfunkorder.com/Q...ts_old.mp3
New version: http://newfunkorder.com/Q...yPants.mp3

The old one was deffinately more crisp.

yamomma said:

Can you fix it? A new mix will take an extra day...

artist08 said:

I'll put a new one on later tonight. I just got ahold of my buddy.

artist08 said:

The one marked "new version" is what I messed with. I could only add so much gain until it clipped.

However the first one was encoded is what I would go for.

yamomma said:

I showed him this thread. I'll put the new one up tonight!

Ok, it's up there...

Done now??

I like this one A LOT!

This sounds like you put a lot of those ideas to completion.

yamomma said:

It's ok by me. I'd like to redo some of the vocals and remix it again w/ my band's voices in that last section. It is better, though! Is it noticeably different, or is it just subtle? It's a bitch to get the real drums to sound exactly like you want 'em to, though.

artist08 said:

Oh yeah, recording is a whole other beast all together, isn't it?

yamomma said:

Oh yeah

This is great.

RodeoSchro said:

Now that's what I like to hear! Thanks!

Oh yeah!!! This version is the one with that kick I love the live drums. I think this surpasses The Velvet Promise as my favorite track from you.

psykosoul said:

Sweet! Thanks, psyko. I'm actually redoing The Velvet Promise right now. I'm having a tough time with those chorus vox, though! Dayum!

Good stuff.

Rub and rub... rub and rub....

VinaBlue said:

Thanks, Vina. 'Bout time you started listening to my songs again...cough, cough.

artist08 said:

And I will have something for you to listen to very soon.

For the record.....

Your stuff is awsome!!!!!

let's talk...

That's quite a compliment from someone with skills like yours. Thanks! You also have skills with a bo-staff?

artist08 said:

?!?!?!?!?

Much Luv though....



I get it BTW...

In all honesty, I like the original better because I like the soft but funky "grit your teeth to listen to the nasty funk" drums in the first one. Plus, the first one sounds like a late 1970's Funkadelic or Quazar P-Funk jam.

I wanted the live drums to sound more like a drum machine, but we kinda ran out of time to mix them properly to achieve that sound. There's actually a mixture of the two in the song (the machine's at the end). I really want to redo the vox, too.
