http://www.puremix.net/gearfestmixingcon...puremix-contestMight be interesting to have several folks here participate and compare mixes. Read the rules, it's not a production or mastering contest. Lots of cool gear up for the top 16 winners. Regardless of winning, I think this contest opens an interesting opportunity to see what we all think constitutes a good mix of a soulful rock song. I think I might give it a shot. Currently downloading the 212 MB of raw tracks. Pretty slow right now. -Scott

Don't even know where to start with this but I am sure willing to give it a try. I only have RealBand so we'll see what it can do. I have zero experience at mixing so that will be the real challange.

Cool opportunity to play with some "professionally" recorded tracks..... yeah a few of them are noisy.
Still fun to work with something I didn't record.
As tempting as it may be, if you plan to enter this, do not add tracks from BB/RB.....
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Here is my version of the song mix for the contest. There was a lot of bleed over from the individual instruments as the song was recorded in a live setting. The tracks were 2 basses DI and an amp version. 1 Electric Guitar, Kick drum, Snare Drum, Overheads and 1 lead Vox. Oh Baby by Liza Colby Band

Hi Very challenging mix. I tried to keep the live feeling and not using to much effect. My gear is mainly Cubase 7, Line 6 Amp farm, TC Powercore, Toontrack drums and Waves effects. Audio module is TC Konnekt 24. I replaced the kick with a kick from Toontracks Avatar drums. Copied the guitar to balance the stereo field and gave one guitar a slight phasing and the other guitar auto-wah. Everything was EQ'ed and I used a good deal of compression. Hear my contribution here: https://soundcloud.com/lindbjergI would love to have some comments. Kind regards Lindbjerg

I liked how you beefed up the vocal, and added some mod effect to the guitar. I heard things in your mix in the vocal that seemed missing in another mix of the same song - her squeal... an important energy element... nice job. Best of luck.
