illest o.g.
I have a few beats in my MPC that need to be tracked out and then I can toss them over to you and you can add your auditory ooz all over it.
What version of Studio One do you have? Maybe I can dump it in there and give it to you like that.

Yes, please.
I use Serato Studio. Let me know what I need to send you.

Jk, just your trackouts ("stems" ) as wav files. Kick, snare, bass, piano, synth etc/whatever
And also maybe an mp3 of your original mix
( @Fyyn3stSymphoni same applies as above)

Love it, especially what you did with the "Oh" sample and the drums. (And did you pan the bass?)
got the original to compare? Mix sounds good to me, its balanced well, nice use of panning with the interplay between the background samples going from right to left, the Oh sounds nice, enough reverb to bring it right to life adding some stereo width to it. Kick kicks well and the bass sits under it. Personally and its just my taste, Id make the snare just a tad louder.

Scroll up a few posts. I linked the original in this thread.
Glad to hear! Yes I panned the bass (for those reading, it's a higher bass, melodic, not a bassy bass)
For the Snare... I actually took some high end out of it allowed it to have a bit more weight, I took quite a bit out, then gradually added some back in (mostly be easing off my cut) throughout the mix. And also added a little punch to it.
As there wasn't much actually BASS bass... I beefed up the kicks a little bit and also enhanced some of what was in the main music.
Didn't do too much fancy here, mostly aiming for a good balance; I've got a new monitoring system, so getting used to all the extra detail before I naturally start reaching for my Jedi Master mixing trick set.
Yeah, @Iron Keys really did the track some justice. Your hi hats are standing really out to me.
I think this is a great learning experience not just for Iron to get some practice with other peoples music, but it also shows people that havent gotten around to the complexities of mixing, having somebody do it for free can be a great eye opener for them to see potential in action. I approve of this good deed Iron is doing here.
Whats your new monitoring setup? Ive just added some Dt990's to mine and Im getting the sub to go with my kalis, probably next pay day, and have you got that fucking new computer yet?
