    Hi all,
    I am just a hobby musician, but I had a lot of fun mixing these files.
    Now here is my humble approach:

    Love it! Drums are loud and proud (very effective use of verbs) but never obscuring the vocal.
    I am hearing a lot attention to detail (even on airpods).

    Good work, a clean and “transparent” mix, powerful drums, well balanced. A bit of mastering could do some final polishing, I guess… :-)

    Good luck to you.

    Hi Jack,
    thanks for your comment!
    Compared to my own drum recordings, it was a pleasure to mix those drum files .. maybe the snare is a bit too loud, – but I like it.
    Stay tuned and good luck to you!

    Hi @rentaroot,
    thanks for your friendly comment.
    I am glad that you wrote about “transparency”. I spent most of the time on this aspect…
    Good luck to you too
    Cheers

    Hi @rentaroot
    you wrote “A bit of mastering could do some final polishing, I guess… :-)”

    Yeah man, you are absolutely right.
    In the meantime I had the opportunity to listen to my mix with fresh ears on good monitors in a kind of treated room .. and yes, there is a definitely room for improvement ;-)
    Also the drums are maybe a little bit to “loud&proud” and the voice has some harshness in the upper mid frequencies that annoys me when listening “loud”.
    But overall I am not unhappy,- on my headphone it sounds OK.

    Hey @Stoffel,

    “Also the drums are maybe a little bit to “loud&proud”… I don’t think so, for my taste taste they are right. Your kickdrum sounds great (especially compared to mine)! :-)

    “But overall I am not unhappy” – That’s the most important thing! If we don’t have fun at what we’re doing, it would make no sense at all!

    Best regards, and have a nice weekend!
