samuel, what are you monitoring with?
Daniel Phillips
with my headphones and the tv-monitor's speakers. why?
Evan Jackson
just curious.
consider getting some proper monitors or sending off your stuff elsewhere for mastering
Aiden Perry
pls help get a better master myself
forgot to mention, headphones are akg k414p
Adam Gutierrez
it's really unbalanced in the bass and both files are harsh in the 2-4kHz region.
also both sound stressed and smashed while not being actually loud.
Levi Martin
it does sound like too many high mids for me, but i didnt eq it, decided to wait for do it after peoples feedback, cause last time they said it was lacking mids.
the "mastering" i'm doing is adding analog plugins and limiting
how i fix the bass
>also both sound stressed and smashed while not being actually loud.
it does to me too. how do i get that right
Tyler Miller
stop adding analog plugins and limiting
all that tense high mids most likely come from distortion components of shitty modelling plugins and pushing a limiter
start fresh, try to balance it and make it sound as good as you can without limiting or touching the dynamic range in any way
then pull it up to the desired level and damage control to make it sound as close to what you had before limiting
Sebastian Lopez
is this any better?
>all that tense high mids most likely come from distortion components of shitty modelling plugins and pushing a limiter
thats the situation. fuck slate digital.
>start fresh, try to balance it and make it sound as good as you can without limiting or touching the dynamic range in any way
how? only eq and reverb is left.
>damage control
wut? limiter with significant release?

you have to tame the bass with an eq
it takes a lot from the whole mix, that's why you probably hit your limiter so hard yet receive not much volume
Henry Evans
just the bass freq of the bass? like 100hz?
Mason Adams
yes, try to take away from freq's under 120hz
you should also keep at least frequenzies under 100hz in mono, unless it's for artistic purposes. low freq's in stereo can cause some weird and muddy sounds, but also make your kick and bass lose impact
Levi Stewart
that is really cool. everything below 120hz on the master is 100% mono now.
clyp.it
the bass really lost impact when i added a stereo chorus to it but i couldnt think of doing that.
are the battery-radio-high mids ok now?
Isaiah Anderson
very nice dude
it's starting to take dimension. the vocals have a lot more volume now!
what's probably missing a bit is some trebble to give it that "high end" sound. you might simply boost up above 5900hz or maybe apply saturation for that range, if you have a plugin for that
Dylan Martinez
The drums sound like shit but it's okay otherwise
Sebastian Moore
No.
William Morales
pls
Josiah Ross
Oliver Myers
changed the "highs" knob on the limiter, seeing if it changed anything to the previous link
clyp.it
looks like youre afk, think ill release this version, its a lot better already. thanks a lot everybody.
Nolan Edwards
don't do your own mastering. ask a friend. seriously, you need objective ears.
Andrew Martinez
thats what ive been doing for the last entire 3 days but Sup Forums wont do it for me
