| dropped a couple comments on this - I love the percussion - it reminds me of a lot of 90s era house themed tracks - the vocals are cool too - I wish they were front n center in the mix more - and maybe with some automation on the distortion u have on them. Especially pre-drops to pop them in the mix - maybe like a quick 1/4 bar solo job right before the drop to accenuate them. Do you have them sidechained in the mix otherwise? |

| Hum thanks man. I don't think I have the vocals sidechained at all, only a compressor. What would I side chain them too? The kick? And then there is tons of automation on the vocal, it's a ring modulator on it with a couple different teaks in parallel. I'll go over the notes some more. |

| Yeah you would sidechain off the kick in theory. you could sidechain to anything. I use reason 6.5.1 what do you use? |

| ring mod on a vocal huh... thats dicey imho. i prefer my vocals nearly bare. with whatever effects added purely on automation as needed. This excludes the basic eq/compression and whatever else you have on to create the dynamic in the vocal. those things are stock ya know |

Well I could have the vocal dry, and then have another track with the ring mod on it. I really liked the effect. I mean it's my voice, and sometimes I don't warm up my voice properly; you are suppose to sing for an hour to really warm it up technically. I look forward to reworking the track and I gave you a comment on a track that I think would benefit from some bass.
A really cool effect I found, is you just take the synth, copy the midi to a new synth track, then work the baseline from it. Of course sometimes the bassline I'll merge two synths, maybe one with an aux send to a distortion. Just tune it all together and it can be amazing. |
