Whats up fellow abe-heads.

I've just finished a track done in Live 5 (with Reason 3.0 rewired). I was wondering if some of y'all would be willing to give it a listen and let me know if you hear anything out of whack. I've been trying hard recently to improve my mixing and what little mastering I'm capable of, so I would appreciate any comments you all might have.

Cheers!

p.s. if you want to comment on the track itself, feel free.

thanks in advance.

hi mate like the track its cool, what plugins do you use on the master? have you got waves? i would like to hear some more of your stuff! kalim

i am not fan of the transy things but i played the track on shit speakers in soundforge , it sounded right .
i would have blended some of the bass sounds together into a nice vintage sounding compressor but it's a question of taste .
the track is well balanced .

thanks for the feedback, guys. kalim - i used waves L1 in conjunction with Izotope Ozone while mastering. a little bit of each.

spider - i never thought it had a trance sound but now that you mention it, it kind of does. can you suggest a software based compressor for the bass?

sounds good I think it sounds progressive because of the long break you have going. i would say though that there is some background noise going on from the effects and layered instruments. maybe simplify some portions towards the end and make it groove a little more by pumping the bass drums more often. i would smooth out the bass line and bass sounds like was suggested above. has a clean sound in general though. would sound great on a large system for sure.

peace
