Hi All I want to thank all of you who listened and commented on my song in my previous post. It’s great that anyone bother taking the time to listen and give a frank and constructive feedback. As you may recall we had a discussion of reverb, some like it some don't, all a matter of taste of course. Skyline offered his help and knowledge to make a remix of my song. You may want to listen to the two versions of the song and compare. I learned a lot from this exercise and I’m thankful to members of this forum, and especially to Skyline who took his time to make a brand new mix of my song. You may want to take a listen and compare. Here is the 1.st mix Here is the remix made by Skyline. Jan

Nicely done - much more clarity. Good song.
During playback on WMP I found a touch too much on the bottom - probably my system
so I rolled off from 125 down on WMP Eq.
Thanks for sharing - I find I look forward to members' critiques - they can be quite crucial correcting things we are sometimes too close to hear.
Cheers - Ian

regarding rolloff... when mastering I've found it useful to start with the frequency range of my studio monitors, then roll off everything above and below those values in the final copy. That way what I hear is all there is.. there isn't something sneaking past in a frequency that my system can't detect. Then the listener can tweak from there on his own sound system
regarding the two versions of the song...
I actually liked the reverb in the first version... to me it added to the moody blues vibe (which I assume is a sound you were actively trying to achieve.)
Having said that, however, the second version is much clearer and musically articulate. If you were trying to market the song, I think the second version would have a better chance of being taken seriously. Lots of reverb, no matter how much some like it, is generally considered to be a classic newbie mistake.
If you're recording for personal enjoyment, it doesn't matter.. do what's fun and sounds good to you. But if you are recording for distribution, resale or really for any professional use, it is always a good idea to stick pretty close to "the rules"
