So, Red, I'm not really in to hip hop/rap music, although I do appreciate it as an important art form. It's not that I dislike it, its just that it tends to relate to a reality I've never experienced. BUT, I really did like this track. Nice and clear. Lyrics were easy to understand. I assume you did the vocal? Also, nice backing track.

I agree with others that the vocals were distorting. Not sure if that was intentional. The waveform display for the track showed that much of it was maxed out. I suspect that the vocal was recorded really hot and that the distortion was in the original goal track. I don't do a lot of vocals, but I'm pretty sure that if the distortion is in the original recording no amount of compression is going to eliminate the problem.

I try to keep the peak levels of all my individual tracks in a project at no more than -6 db, sometimes lower. Then I've got lots of headroom for mastering where the levels of the entire track can be raised up.

I used to use a standard set of Logic plugins on my master output bus for mastering. Still use some, but I've started experimenting with a couple of the online mastering services: Cloudbounce and LANDR. I don't produce a lot of tracks so the cost is pretty manageable.

Anyway, nice work. I will keep an eye/ear out on Looperman for more stuff from you.

Like Jody said. The vocals sound too loud. They are so loud they sound distorted maybe compress the vocals a little with a slight touch of the dbknob xD keep it comming!
