I was so eager to get this out though, I had this in my collection of unfinished tracks for so long. Enjoy, my dudes :) By the way, the name might be temporary. I'd like some alternate name for this track but for now, it's just going to be named after the cover I selected for it...

This is so good!!! I feel such emotion with all of your music, I can listen to it anyday! :D That guitar sound design tho, incredibly done!

Mar 18, 21

Np my friend! :) And ooooh, ok

Thank you!!! I definitely tried to express emotion in this track. (By the way, the guitar preset isn't mine, it's someone else's, credit to them)

how did you get that guitar/string sound? Remix is closed so I can't tell very chill, but you're looking a little loud in your mid-low frequency range. Those low piano notes are buzzing a bit, you may wanna try some stereo effects such as the stereodetune, or the stereoenhancer. I'm not sure but the buzzing and muddiness of the sound may come from too many sounds residing in the same freq range, so if you tweak em a bit, you can probably blend them much more effectively :) Good song writing!

Remix is closed??? I usually always have my stuff open for remixes, idk what happened here but I'll fix that. Again, thank you for your input :)

if stereo effects dont work, try panning each instrument slightly differently, or do the basic stuff I always say like reduce gain/volume levels, or try a filter.

it's super impressive that you made this amazing thing with no effects.

there's a lot you can do with your synths that can eliminate the need for boosting effects or even filters, although they're not extremely precise, it helps!

Thank you, I'm not good with certain effects and things but I still try to make my music sound the best I can possibly make it with what I know

Followed Alko's advice and flipped the switch- no more clipping, finally!!!

This is pretty nice. A little crunchy in parts, but good.

Alright, thanks for the advice! I'll see what I can do later on

Well, the best advice I can give you is trying out using the Curve EQ, which I usually use to equally distribute the different frequencies you're using, that way nothing's overlapping so much in the same general frequencies and all and it won't have those muddy bits. It's also good with clipping, since it'll allow for you to broadly raise and lower the volume of different frequencies so everything's flatter and not too loud in spots. Good for focusing your sound, you know?

Thank you! I know it's pretty crunchy at parts, do you have any idea how I can fix that? I fixed a tiny bit of it before publishing but it still has plenty of other clipping to fix.
