You may want to mess with the highs, mids, and bass while eqing the entire
project. If your music is as sharp as you're saying, the highs may beturned up
to much.
Omar Binno
We have come from God, and inevitably the myths woven by us, though
they contain error, will also reflect a splintered fragment of the true
light, the eternal truth that is with God. Indeed only by myth-making,
only by becoming a "sub-creator" and inventing stories, can Man aspire to
the state of perfection that he knew before the Fall. Our myths may be
misguided, but they steer however shakily towards the true harbor,
while materialistic "progress" leads only to a yawning abyss and the Iron
Crown of the power of evil. - J. R. R. Tolkien - Author of The Lord Of
The Rings

Hi everyone,
I have a small problem with mixing and wonded if anyone has any tips, this
may be a hard one to help with, but thought it was worth asking.
As i'm new to using Sonar, i have gotten some help with the editing and
mixing of my work. The technicion i have helping me has done a good job and we
have spent alot of time on my CD, but when i brought it home from his studio i
wasn't entirely happy with the mix of music and vocals. in places on certain
songs the music seems to be pearcingly loud in comparison with the vocal and is
drowning it out. Of course my initial reaction was to just have him turn the
vocal up, but as i say, in places it's fine, and i don't want for it to be too
loud iether! perhaps i'm just being picky! but it just sounds like the music
has a certain sharpness and clarity wich the vocal doesn't have. i did think
it may be just the volume, but having listened through a few times, the vocal
can be heard, just not as sharp. Could it be some kind of mastering thing that
we need to do rather than just turning up the vocal? Probably a bit difficult
to answer without having heard it i know, and i'm going back to his studio
tomorrow, so i'm sure we'll get it sorted out, but any advice would be useful
that i can keep in mind for tomorrow.
I hope i havent been too vague, it's frustrating when you can just hear
something and doen't know what it is! i can hear it isn't right, but my lack of
experience makes it hard to figure it out!
Hope someone may be able to advise.
Many thanks
Hayley
