Well, in my case, when I'm writing a poem (yeah, a poem), I always keep the original text in order to compare with the 'finished' one. Tbh sometimes I change so many thing to make it perfect that it feels like the whole emotion is gone. So I just go back to the original one and start over again, but trying to keep the emotion untouched
Good topic! I think every case and every song is different. Sometimes you get the perfect take after just two attempts, and sometimes you need much more than that... It depends a lot on the quality of the session musician who is recording!
hi everyone :)) i made another mix, im hoping to get any feedback on it - anything will help me. i havent been able to finish a full track like this in a moment, and in this one i tried to very subtly use loops to texture my mix, as well as utilise automation more, especially on the main synth and in the bass. let me know if anything sounds off to you :))
Hey there, nice track! It has a certain wistfulness and vintage vibe.
I have a few comments for arrangement and mix: 1. Most everything is changing on the downbeat, and I think you could add some groove to your track by changing this up so that some elements are landing on offbeats, or even coming in on the 2, for example. 2. Your supersaw could probably benefit from a LPF, in my opinion, and I think that you could automate the cutoff to give it some movement. 3. It sounds to me like your mix could use some space, so you could consider adding a little bit of reverb and delay on some of the tracks. I especially thought that you could use a gated reverb on the snare, or even some dub delay sometimes and that it would really suit the vibe. 4. I don't hear much low end. If you aren't using a sub on your bass, I think that could help a lot. If you are, I think that you can turn it up some.
This is not a genre that I listen to much, so bear in mind that some of what I am saying may speak more to my own biases than what actually suits the track, so take it all with a grain of salt and decide if any of what I've said makes sense for your vision! Best of luck with your track, and feel free to post revisions if you'd like some follow up thoughts.
