Missing Anything?

djOdyssey · Post by **djOdyssey** » Tue Dec 20, 2011 1:42 pm

Hey guys, i'm about to release a full EP for free download through my Soundcloud page in the next month, and i've been working really hard on a lot of tracks to release, however i have a feeling that they are missing something... The mastering of the tracks that are released thus far are not finalized, so i'm not necessarily looking for how to master tracks (All though any tips, or things to try would still be very appreciated!). So yeah, if you guys have got a couple minutes could you check out this track and tell me if it's missing any key elements, or any elements that would just make it sound better at all.

Here's my latest Promo Release:
Soundcloud

Thanks ahead of time for any future feedback, it is grealy needed, and i am willing to do whatever to make my tracks sound as good as i can

(If you would like to see more tracks from the upcoming EP check out my Soundcloud[http://soundcloud.com/djodyssey-1] or Facebook[www.facebook.com/OdysseyDubstep])

Thank you.

I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. But i am not trying to spam: i simply asking for any tips on how to master it better, since this is my first attempt at mastering tracks, i don't know if i'm missing something crucial, because it sounds like it is missing something huge, and i just don't know what to try.

How many of your elements are panned? It seemed like a lot of your sounds are just sitting in the center which is what might be making it not seem as huge as it really is, or maybe its just lack of wide movement in your upper-midrange bass. Although it may be because I can't turn my monitors all the way up that might be one thing to think about. I like your tune a lot though btw, it actually sounds really good.

Thanks man i really appreciate the feedback!

And my whole upcoming EP has this general feel to it, and it all sounds like it has the same problem. If i could just figure out what it was i would be able be happy with releasing it. Any suggestions on how to fix the problem?

you fucking retarded? he just said you could use more panning. you produce, but you don't know what panning is? i find this hard to believe.

Woah man, i apoligize. i must of misread that part, because i surely do know what panning is, for some reason i must not of associated it with the word panned. (seeing as im in an altered state of mind at the moment)

Thanks for pointing that out for me, and that could work. i'll work on it, and see what i can do.
