The part with the first drop rings a bit out of tone, it sounds messy, but that's not bad. But you need to add dynamic to your track, it's not louder enough. The mix isn't really good. But that's not a bad track

[burnz]

Cool thanx dude, yea in still trying to learn about compressing, equalizing and side chaining, its probably been the most frustrating part since I started 6 months ago... Could you be more specific about adding dynamic to the track? Thanks again for the feedback

[ShaneDubstep]

Try adding a slow compression on the overall mix, a bit of disto on the bass... Play around with the Eqs

[burnz]

Thanks mate I'll try that... Ps that drop on ya song rampage is fffffilthy! Nice work dude

[ShaneDubstep]

^^ Thanks

mix is pretty poor, the drums are completely drowned out

[OfficialDAPT]

Try sending the channels of your drop to one bus and then EQing out the main kick frequency or side chain a bit on the low end of said bus. If you don't know what I'm talking about you'll learn eventually don't worry. Heres something to help: http://dnbforum.com/showthread.php/1365 ... gh-the-mix

The drop is sick the drums are kinda quiet but the wobbles and everything else is nasty sick

[blip]

There is something really strange with the mixdown, I don't know if you are sidechaining everything to the bass, but I think most of the times the drums are getting drowned and the midrange synths are way too loud.

I feel there needs to be more restraint: there are some nice arpeggios, but they seem to never last long enough, then another idea comes, then another.

thanks heaps for the feedback guys... yea i kinda been trying to wing it with default settings because i'm not too clued up on the mixing side of things.... Ive downloaded a couple books about it so i can work it and ill re-post when i figure it out thanks again people

[ehbes]

There's a thread called the moneyshot thread read it

[burnz]

I think i found the right thread ehbrums1, Ive re-done my drums and bass and replaced the file on soundcloud.... I still want to get a cleaner sound for the synths and still reading about all this. thanks heaps for all help guys

[ehbes]
