Hey lovely SoundGym community! 👋

I'm currently working on an emotional Hardtechno / Schranz track and would really appreciate some help with the mixdown.

I'm trying to get the best possible sound out of this track and improve my mixing skills. I'd love to get some honest feedback, tips, and suggestions from anyone willing to take a listen.

Thanks so much in advance to everyone taking the time to help! ❤️

Hi Justus Stremmelaar :) I should start by saying that I’m no Hard Techno expert, but I’ll try to offer a little help nonetheless. I feel like there’s a lack of energy in the center (the mid-range of the signal). The stereo width is good, but it shouldn’t come at the expense of the mid-range. The vocal feels a bit too buried—I get the idea, but it’s positioned too far back, to the point where it gets completely lost toward the end. This usually happens when: there isn’t enough space carved out in the instrumental, there’s too much reverb, or the reverb’s pre-delay is set too short. I hope this helps! 😀

Hi! Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to my track and share your feedback. I really appreciate it! Your advice was genuinely helpful, and you gave me some great points to work on, especially regarding the mid-range and vocal positioning. I'll definitely keep your suggestions in mind for the next mixdown.

Thanks again for your kindness and support! Much love! ❤️

Hello everyone, does anybody play the games on different devices? I use the same headphones (Sennheiser HD25) on a iPad Air 2 and a MacBook Pro (MY 2013). Seems clear that the same games played on the iPad cut almost everything above 7k… Do you hear the same difference?
