i'm making this song out of a sample from my 3DS lol
« on: February 16, 2016, 11:08:40 pm »
hi guys :) i have this WIP here that i think has potential, but i feel like it's missing something. maybe it needs a tighter mix (well it definitely needs that), maybe i need to add something a bit more tangible to the progression, i'm not exactly sure.

would love and appreciate it if you guys were to give me some feedback on what you think and what could improve the track as a whole.

thanks so much!

Gorgeous atmosphere. My only criticisms are on the middle section:

- timing in the lead instrument sounds off, especially in the beginning
- that same instrument is also a bit dull sound-wise, maybe it needs more highs just to stand out as a solo instrument. And to me it sounds like it should be panned to the left for balance.
- clap sounds out of place with no reverb on it

this is great advice, thanks so much for listening and for the feedback! The middle section is pretty weak in my opinion too, I'm glad that now I have some solid things to address from someone else's perspective.
