Thnx Orlando. MrRobot is the man I turn to when I want the Kraftwerk sound. And yet I thought I downplayed the Kraftwerk on this one :)

on PROXIMAL VICINITY zombmix by zombieme

As you see I've put slashes between possible issues to make it questionable...ok, there's no clipping then...but what about other two options ?

on PROXIMAL VICINITY zombmix by zombieme

I can only echoe what Bear and Spiv already said and this could have been easily among Top 5 in my books if it wansn't for some inexplicable harshness/distortion/clipping in the last movement, particulary on the right chanel...May I suggest you to listen to it again very carefully and possibly fix the issue...there's still enough time:)...but overall excellent job !:)

Compliments and good luck_____Orlando

zombieme replied 24th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

there is no clipping dude I checked each individual channel, every group channel and the master out with a level meter and clip statistics, nothing goes over 0

on joes real final minimal master - SBM comp by joecramer

This is quite a bit of improvement over previous versions, particulary in the stereo field (if my ears don't fool me^^)
and in the end of the day this is more than solid entry and probably among the best ones.

Congrats_____Orlando

joecramer replied 24th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

Nice to hear, that you can hear an improvement.

In a way i am happy that i dont have to say what master is the best one out there. This job is for SBM :)

So, thanks for youre friendly words Orlando

stay tuned

on Close My Eyes Ft Mhyst by SeriouslyJoking

Tjena SJ,

Nice to see you around again and it's good to know you're still making some music and furthermore improving your skills on things you mentioned...
This one reminds me incredibly on Bronski Beat style regardless of female vocals....anyways, you did a good job again so take some sincere compliments from

Orlando

SeriouslyJoking replied 22nd Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

Tjenixen Orlando!
I just finished listening to your song and everything is sounding really flat, dead and undynamic in comparison. :D

Had to check out Bronski Beat - I loved those songs! Not sure where the similarity is or if there is one but I take it as a great compliment anyway! Thanks.

Take care! / SJ =)

on Proximal Vicinity Mix Comp by Livingsoulsdie

Hello Kevin...first I have to say it's great you have decided to join the competition and I think all this is not so much about winning or being the best in town, but more about learning and improving mixing and mastering skills through exchanging views, ideas and experiences of fellow Loopermates and at the end of the day it's also about simply having fun.:)
You're asking what you're doing wrong...as a complete amateur myself (you can also call me noob, hehe)I just don't feel competent to tell you whether you're doing something wrong or right...I can only tell what my ears and senses tell me, or how I percieve your take on this task...
I must say the beginning is very promissing...clear and bright sounding piano impresses me, as well as just the right amount of reverb... but the transition to acoustic guitars is frankly quite messy and it's probably the most questionable part on the entire track (at the same time I envy you exactly that part cause I wouldn't know how to do it mysef even if I wanted to...lol)...For the rest of the track I would say there's too much emphasis on higher frequency range on one side and obvious lack of lower range on the other, which is even more evident in the third movement. Despite aforementioned shortcomings I still consider this as a clean mix in it's own way and I can only
congratulate you for making your own contribution to this contest.:)

All the best_____Orlando

Livingsoulsdie replied 22nd Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

Thank you for the great reply. To be completely honest with you this is actually the second song that I have actually mixed and mastered so I guess I am on the right track. Thank you for letting me know about the low end lacking. On the tiny monitors that i'm using at my house to master its almost impossible to even hear the bass when i'm mixing, even with volume all the way up on the monitors. I think I lacked because I have realized that when I can hear the bass really nicely on my monitors that means its way to high for almost every other sound system lol. I do the make a master and burn it to a cd and listen to it in the car deal because I really am working with junkie monitors. My aim was to bring out more of the high end of this track because that is where I thought most of the life was in this track. I also think that my transition to the acoustic guitars really does suck I think I added way to much reverb and it kind of mudded up that whole transition. anyway Thank you a lot for the reply man !

on The Sedona Remixed by OrdinaryDude

What a wonderful laid back vibe you created here...excellent acoustic guitar playing (is this you playing?)..this could easily fit under "chill out" category, but "ambient" fits as well...afteral the music itself is the most important in the end and this is an exquisite one.:)

Hat's off and respect____Orlando

OrdinaryDude replied 21st Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

Thanks Orlando51. Unfortunately it is not me playing the guitar. I'm not that talented. I take loops and tracks and manipulate them to the sound I'm looking for. I wish I could, I have a musical ear but not the instrumental talent. Thanks for the feedback, all of it is appreciated!!!

Hey Orlando :)

Thanks for your kind words.. the standard is very high for this competition so if I want to win anything I will have to go back to this and try again. Hopefully I find time in the next day or two..

on Proximal Vicinity Spivkurl Mix 13B Master B by Spivkurl

Hell yeah, man....I enjoyed your mix very much. It's crisp and clean, instruments well defined within good dynamics...
I really enjoy listening to different approaches on the challenge....

Compliments on this one_____Orlando

Spivkurl replied 11th Oct 2014 - 11 years ago

Hello fellow winner, hope you are well! Thank you for your kind comment, and I am sorry for taking so long to respond. Had a little less free time lately, but I'm trying to get caught up slowly. I'm really happy that this mix got a good reaction, especially since I tried hard and took quite a while. This really was mix 13-B, so the 13th saved mix project, and the second render of that specific mix. The mastering was quite a bit easier since I took my time mixing well, so only took two renders. I'm learning the benefits of mixing at low volume whether in headphones or monitors, it keeps me listening closely and gives my ears a little break too. Very happy to be recognized along side you and your mix, as I look up to you as an artist. Thank you!

on Majestic Scenery by Devodale

All the best to you Devodale, but I find this quite monotonous
, particulary in case this is considered complete work, but if it's ment as some kind of background pad to serve some more complex arrangement then it's not necessarily bad news, depends what you might have in mind for further development of the track. You can contact me via private message for possible collaboration...:)

thx man. tried to accent the highs, because that's where I felt all the meat was in this particular song. I feel like all electronic music is mixed pretty much the exact same: bass comes first.
