Scyone - Towards the Stars [Liquid drum & bass] Mixdown advice wanted.
Hi guys!
I've been working on a new liquid dnb track the past few days and it's finally done, however, I seem to be having difficulties with the mixdown. It all sounded great and epic and I was ready to push it out there already, but upon listening to it again today with a clear head, I've noticed some muddiness. I went back to FL and tightened up the EQing a bit more, but I don't know, doesn't seem to help much, in fact I think it lost a bit of its power. The more I listen to it, the worse it sounds, it's making me crazy... I don't know if it's just my crappy earphones & speakers (I don't have producer equipment, unfortunately), the music player, or me overthinking things, so I'd love to hear more opinions! If someone with a fresh ear (and maybe studio monitors ) could listen to it and give me some feedback, it'd be grand! Overall opinions of the track are very welcome aswell of course. Thanks in advance.
Also, for some reason the soundcloud player seems to always give my bass some weird distortion. It's never there in FL or during normal mp3 playback. Does anyone else have such a problem? I don't know how to fix something that isn't there...
Cheers!
