WTF is "warm sound" anyway? (pg. 2)

I have had some trouble with this....and have not yet found the solution:
I can create a proper track, decent in terms of programming, instruments, etc...
However, even after mastering (decent volume, no distortion)...it still sounds 'cold' compared to professional tracks. It lacks a certain something, a warmth...perhaps saturation...
Any ideas on this are more than welcome! |

try 2 distressors on the mainmix....
or within software learn how to master with plugins |

| I kind of know what you mean. I always use the term "thick" instead of "warm", but I'm not sure it is any less ambiguous. |

| Ive never heard of warm having anything to do with frequency range. you can have an extremely cold bass for instance. Despite that it fills ths spectrum. |

Wrong thread. Fool. |

but would probably have a bit of a dip in that 500-1500 range. And would also probably be pretty unsaturated. I know what you mean though. But I definately think it has to do with frequency ranges.
Palm: totally disagree, lack of midrange would make something cold. |

The diffirence between a blurry and a sharp sound could also contribute to how warm or cold a sound is.
Hey, atleast we haven't brought "bright" and "dark" sounds into the mix yet :P
You could have a very warm dark sound, and a very bright cold sound, and vice versa. |

there are too many ridiculous adjectives in music. "omg that sounds fat" "that sounds airy" "that sounds so apple man omg".
what i love the most is when magazines review monitors. "the bass is very tubby and there is a lot of tingle in the highs"... yeah that's super useful mang.
:rolleyes: |
