Mirror of Eternity (Radio Mix) by DarrylM 2 years ago
Thanks for the comments everyone!

And thanks Henno for the production feedback. I didn't re-track any of the original sounds so the updates are additions and re-mixing. The guitars were recorded live with an amp, though there is a bit of a delay on the lead guitar. That may be what you're hearing. The amp settings were a bit on the trebly side so it does sound a bit honky. I wonder if I could play around with some software amps in Logic? Hmm...

Thanks again for the feedback! Much appreciated!

Sounds great. I like the synth though it would indeed be interesting to hear this with a chamber/pizzicato arrangement. Love the sound of the doubled & panned guitars (or is that a stereo plugin?)!

Dont by fuzzynormal 3 years ago

Hey, cool stuff! I agree with irok - great arrangement. Your singer has a great voice as well. I wonder what it'd sound like if her level was brought up just a tad? But overall you're totally setting the bar for me in recording/mixing - those guitars come across with definite power and the drums sound great!

Loving this!

Hyfrydol - Homemade condenser test #2 by DarrylM 4 years ago
Thanks, everyone. smiley

schubertiad - I think you are likely correct. There are many ways to mic a grand piano, so I'm slowly getting to trying different methods. One of the problems is that the fans and heater in the building still come on at irregular intervals, which then get picked up by the microphones. So it will theoretically smiley be a bit easier to try miking from a bit of a distance during the summer. Thanks for your input!!

Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Hockey by DarrylM 4 years ago
Thanks for the comments, everyone!

Fromano - I absolutely agree! Anyone up for some vocals? smiley

pharmakeus - The non-drum instruments are all guitars. My brother played them through his effects pedal, and then the amp was miked with 1-3 microphones and mixed to taste. Bass was done with a bass guitar recorded through a DI and mixed with a bass amp plugin in Logic.
