How make my music amazing ?

(Sorry for my english...)

Hello,

I'm producing a new track, but I have a big problem, a problem that I have always when I create music. I found, my music don't have the little sound which will create the effect of an amazing music. So I ask you what misses to return my music more efficient and amazing ?

SAMPLE

Please, help me!!!

Add more analog.

And sidechain.

The track doesn't have any sense of depth.. I'd like reverb on the pad, change the kick to another one that has more snap in the attack. You need to work more on the bass - add another bassline that handles the sub 200hz maybe.

Take a listen to some of your favorite tracks, and analyze how they built the percussion around the kick - giving the track a nice rhythm and groove. Percussion is very important in order to get that polished professional sound. If the percussion sucks - the track suck imo. (like most of my tracks )

ok, thank you !

if I send you my Reason File, you can help me ????? because I don't see what you mean!

Sure! Though don't expect miracles to happen, because my reason skills aren't all that, and my general skills are not top either.

I'm sure there are guys here, that could help you out better, but if you post your reason file, you can have several people help you out.

more compression

eighth notes

Easy steps to the PRO SOUND:

Open up your CD drive and pour in two cups of Bertolli olive oil. This will give your track a smoother, slick feel.

Then smash a bunch of Rold Gold mini pretzels (at least two hundred) into tiny pieces and dump them into your CD drive as well.

Hit "record" in your sequencer, and then bang with your fists as hard as you can at random on your MIDI keyboard for about five minutes. After you've done this, hit the "quantize" button -- this will turn your notes into an AWESOME uplifting melody.

Add a classic 909 kick drum playing a four-to-the-floor beat and kick the track up to about 180 BPM. Route the kick drum through a vocoder, using the kick drum as the modulator sound and Michael Jackson's "Beat It" as your source sound. This will sound tiiiiiiiiight.



Record the resulting song to analog tape. Put the tape in a traditional brick oven heated to at least 350 degrees Fahrenheit for twenty minutes. This will give your track the extra warmth that every producer craves.

Send the results of this process to a mastering engineer and he'll fix it up to make sound REALLY PROFESSIONAL.

Then send the final thing off to Armin and Tiesto.

You'll be sure to get signed!

seriously though, based on the replies so far, people are misunderstanding this guy. His english isn't that good, and it might look like he wants to be served the ingredients in order to "cook" a pro track.

Not the case at all. He just wants some pointers that will help him to get a better result. I can totally relate to that.

When you've been doing this for a while, you get to a place where you simply don't know where to begin in order to level up in quality. You just don't know whats wrong with your mixes. You can totally hear that there is something lacking compared to the "pros", but just can't grasp where to start.

I mean, and I'm not aiming at you jingles, people - either help out, of just ignore. But people always post bs replies, some more than others.
This was just a sincere request for some help - for god's sakes. (Arnold voice)

This is my Reason file :

REASON FILE

Apply your recommandations ...

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT BEYER !!!

I think it would be much wiser if you PMed him the link.

Ok mate, I've had a brief look at the project.

I don't have that refill you used, so I don't have any samples loaded, except a few toms and hats. I'll load up some of my own. I can't finish anything tonight I'm affraid, but I'll see if I can have it done by tomorrow evening.

Number ONE issue regarding the project:

WHERE are the EQs?? This is probably the root of the problem. You don't have even a single eq unit in there, making the whole sound just a complete mess. I'll apply the eq I see fit before I return the file to you.

off topic:

I love to have projects neat and organized. I recommend using the combinator device, to have your instruments and effects properly placed - after 50-60 devices, it can get horrible navigating through the jungle of cables. (I know you can hide them )

Make all that you want! I don't know use combinator! So it's why it's the jungle!

It's dammage that you don't have all my refills.
Thank you for your help! I'm waiting your file!

doubt it

The most important skill you need as a producer, is to know when to ditch a sound or not.

you fucking suck.

dude you will NEVER sound amazing until you purchase at least 3 hardware synths.

I take it you had bought 3 synths before you made montavo then.

haha thank you, but na.

that was all reason!

Not wanting to stray off topic, but that song is sick man. When I heard it on asot:



Meleodic: sorry, next reply from me will be when I've done some stuff with your file.

thanks, that's nice to hear mate!

But they're so expensive


Wait, does this count as a hardware synth?
