New tune and progress report towards mastering.

Posted by maxxpump - September 11th, 2016


Just released my new track which is a remake of a piece I made in 2009, I will say Ive made serval versions since I released it this morning. just to clarify (mainly for my own use so I don't forget...) V1.0 is the clean version which is on all my other channels V.1.1 is the one which is up now on newgrounds, this version has more bass, but to me sounds off (I'll work out whats up when it gets remastered), V.1.3 is the new verison with extra mixing and a new pad sound (more low end rumble through out the track), V1.4 this version I've added a vocoder track, but I still need to play with the mix levels as its slightly to loud in sections (this unlike other songs I've released on newgrounds, is a multi tonal vocoder which has been tracked on multipule channels, as Orange doesn't have a live MIDI mode to play in as the song goes along, which is unfortunate :(  ). V1.5 Is the cleanest mix I've now done and will be the version whcih is remastered at bradbury mastering Limited on thursday, so I should be able to release the next version next saturday (this is the same mastering house which I did "Do you love me (Take me back)", whch came out very clean and is a much better master than the original. 

I still want to add more sound effects to the mix and will do this before thursday, and will give me a better chance to have another play with the mix before fianl mastering!

I haven't unforunately played it back on a Hi-Fi yet as I've doen the mix so far in V1.1 on the monitors, I know it may sound different (as it always does) if anyone can give feedback on what it sounds like on your system and what system you've got, this would be excellent. I don't usually release stuff that has't been fully tested but I really wanted to get this out and it past the test on my phone (which I figure would be the most likely device for play back these days, apart from tablets.)

I do have some other Drum and bass tunes in the works which are alot faster than my previous attempts, which hopefully will be more dancable. Ive also now nearly fully aclimatized myself to Cubase 8.5, but am still reading the manual to seek out new features.

Edit! I've just released two new tracks one is Bassilicious which is Dubstep, D&B and verging on jungle, might be a good sub track (not sure as I ain't got one! and my other track Bottleneck which is another heavy EDM track using my new favourite synth Serum!

So it now means I have a whole package on songs to get properly mastered, I'll have to see what I can afford as it ain't cheap...

Edit 2: I currently remixing Basslicious as there was a complaint it was too quiet, which I've now rectified, but im not sure what happens to all the posts on the video if I reupload the file so may wait for the next upload cycle and upload a different version and see what happens! Sorry guys my big bad! 

Edit 3: new version of the Drum and bass track is now up but it still sounds not loud enough, my recommendation is to download it as the file is much louder! The versions on my other plaforms are louder than on newgrounds for some reason and much bassy (I aint got a clue what happened!)  

I hope everyone is good and are having a nice weekend! :)
