Hey everyone,

The Butterfly Effect - Fairytale

Fun song to work on, definitely a vibe that's up my alley.
I automated it to switch between a reverb for the chorus and one for the verse on the vocal track. Took me a while to feel happy with the drums, so would be curious to hear your thoughts on them specifically. Additionally if there's a particular area you feel I need to focus on improving, I would appreciate that feedback.

Thanks for listening 🙏

Hey Brian, nice mix! The drum kit seems loud compared to the rest of the song, I'd remove/reduce the 150/300 region from the kick and the snare and the lead vocal could be turned down a couple of dbs.. ;P

Hi Brian, good effort. You could try to tame the drums a little more, especially the snare. Also, the vocals are a bit loud / harsh.

Hi Brian .Like what you did the backing vocal. The drums need EQing a little different, but with how they were recorded made , for me at least a challenge to get them to sit right.
