If you have time take a listen and give Musicante some feedback.
Really enjoyed listening to this song. Everything about it was great. The real challenging part IMO is the mixing/mastering, that's where the song really comes alive. I've been making music for 10+ yrs, and I'm always learning something new. S/o to Scott, and your whole squad.. keep making good music
I am listening in 5.1 on a Sony surround system. I mirror my Macbook Air through Apple TV and the web is shown on my tv which is then hooked up to the Sony surround.
I am getting some bass, most drums and singing through mostly the front center speaker. Getting some signal from my front speakers(l+r) but not all that much. Most of the sound coming from the front is centered. I use a sub woofer and that is booming the bass but I would rather hear the mid bass tones in my rear speakers than from the center channel.
The guitar and sax lead sound good in the rear speakers along with the backing vox.
Hand claps are centered in front as well, those would be nice spread wide. To me it seems a lot is front and center and the two front speakers need more in them. The vocals need a little room and maybe a bit louder, there is a lot going on in my center channel.
Thanks for your comments. I don't try to be too aggressive with the different speakers. I mix on a stereo system and when it sounds good through it, I listen to it over my SS system. Every system will be different depending on the levels of the individual speakers and room size. I know I have my rear speakers a bit louder since they are far from my fronts. I don't put anything on the sub channel, since your system pretty well takes care of that. It's fine for movies, but, IMO, it can be overkill using that channel for music, so I won't put the low end on the sub channel. I actually didn't put anything on the center channel. Your system is doing that. Sometimes if the vocal track isn't dominant enough, I will split that track between the center and the fronts.
Whew... Didn't mean to be so long winded!
Anyway, thanks again for your help.

Description : A fun little latin song I did together with my wife Claudia. Acoustic guitar, percussion, keys, bass and vocals. A good exercise in timing for me. Cheers and enjoy. - Bill ( Bilbozo ) Smith
Description : I wanted to upload the drums and bass alone as a song because it just sounded great but I waited to lay down a few acoustic tracks, a mandolin track and some classical guitar on this. Added some percussion. Latin feel, think Miami, sexy, hot... It is short but sweet.
