wut up fellas? Long time no see.

This was good. Some parts your flow felt a lil rushed (like 6 bars in). Prop, I felt like you've done beats with more punch, maybe it's where I'm listening but I felt like the snares or high hats or something felt too sharp and loud.

as a cat who SUCKS at mixing his on music. My suggestion is to get someone else to do it for you. Make sure your accapella is tight though.

Vocals are fine...you can turn them up a little bit but I think they were fine.

and i'd say keep mixing yourself. say that bread unless u can someone to do it for free. if u trying to money down on wut ur doing, invest it elsewhere and try to study this. mixing can eat up a lot of budget.

My boy El went from this a couple years ago:

still not the best but its much improved...he wanted to do it cuz he didnt like how other dudes were mixing it

Saw the name had to check it out.
Since you're all talking about mixing.
What are some resources to start mixing at home ?
I record when I get a chance and leave it up to people
who understand the process to do the rest for me, but
I'd like to be freed of that and do more for myself when creating projects.

Also the track is dope SmartMouf, and the criticism involving the actual beat itself has
been brought up already.

I dig this. You're nice. I agree though, I'm hearing the left and just the beat on the right sometimes.

This is where I've been fukking up...Somewhere in these steps it fukks up the audio..

I use Audio Audition...

Dynamics Processing - VocalComp, -24, +12dB, Fast (It's a preset)
Dynamics Processing - De-Esser Light (Preset)
Graphic Equalizer - Shado Settings (10 band EQ, first 3 at -5, next 4 at 0, last 3 at 5)
Hard Limiting - shado settings (Max amplitude at -.1 db, boost input by 6 db, Lookahead time = 7 ms, release time = 100 ms) (+ Link left and right)


One of them muthafukkas fukk up that sound, cause I sound great for ME, but for certain people...Its all bootleg...

I need to know which one fukks it up...lol...It's taking away from the heat b...lol
