Title: My new cover of If The World (unmixed/unmastered) Post by: Demon Wolf on May 23, 2009, 06:05:06 PM Hey people, you might've heard my previous cover of If The World which was well recieved by many!
Now I have recorded a new one with my new recording gear, a Presonus Inspire external soundcard and a Shure SM57 microphone. All vocals, guitars, keyboards and piano by myself, drum loop created with Addictive Drums. I use a Epiphone Les Paul with Gibson 498T and 490R pickups, a Walden 12-string acoustic and a CTK3000 Casio Keyboard, and I record in Adobe Audition. Now I want your help people! The song is unmixed and unmastered, all I've done is panning and volume and stuff. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=KNSJUPVI There is the download link, I'd love if you would take the time to listen to it in headphones and tell what you think needs be changed/added! Then when all is done, I'll mix and master it and upload a high quality file of it for use on MP3, Ipod, etc. Thanks in advance! Edit: I've noticed there is a pop noise right before the final chorus, but I've taken care of it. If you don't want to download it, it is streaming from here (If The World- Unmixed/Unmastered): http://profile.ultimate-guitar.com/Demon+W.../all/play619751 Title: Re: My new cover of If The World (unmixed/unmastered) Post by: loretian on May 23, 2009, 10:03:56 PM Wow, I'm very impressed. I think you did a great job. The extra ornamentation compared to your demo version all sounds good. The addition of the new "Yeah there was a time" lyrics was actually a great idea too. Love the melody piano right at the beginning too.
My only (small - and more about personal opinion than actual flaws or problems) criticisms would be that I don't like the little guitar "shredding" right at the beginning of the main solo. It just seems a little out of place with the feel for the rest of the song. I also really liked how the demo version started out more plain and added more instruments as it went on. Overall, great job, again. Keep it up. : ok: Title: Re: My new cover of If The World (unmixed/unmastered) Post by: Demon Wolf on May 24, 2009, 08:40:13 AM really appreciate your input. :beer:
upon listening to the old version, i do like how the instruments build up as the song goes on, so i have recorded some extra guitar and keyboard that will be added for the final mix. i have also sung the line /i would do anything for you/ for the twat-part. once again, many thanks. :love: Title: Re: My new cover of If The World (unmixed/unmastered) Post by: loretian on May 28, 2009, 03:04:52 PM Cool!
