Sanse Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Hi there! My name is sebastian and this is my first attempt to record my voice, i dont have a really mic or a correct equipment, just headset mic. By the way the mix sucks. As i said, was my first time recording but i had a lot of fun playing with the mixcraft. I hope to improve, just let me know your critics. Thanks!

Batsinthebelltower Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 The mix sounds fine dude , if youre enjoying that , stick at it - it will help train your ear. You could try and be tighter with the timing , fit into the groove of the song. If you cant get the notes perfect dont worry , get your groove first , then work on the notes ! Dont give up !

Herman The Red Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I like your voice. Timing is the issue. You seem to be ahead of the beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanse Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Thanks guys. The mix sucks because i recorded my voice before to get the track. And when i did the mix, i didnt realize the problem in the mach up . I wanna know if my voice sounds squeaky, i dont know if this is the right way. PD: so many complicated words, I hope you understand me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronws Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 You make the mistakes I have often made. So, as I offer advice, please remember I have done everything wrong, before. And still sometimes, I do. As for mixing, less reverb on the vocals. It is making it muddy. As singers, we like to think of the voice as THE instrument but in a song, it is an instrument to be used for the purposes of the song. As others have pointed out, you already know how to fix the timing issue. That is, your timing for singing was good but it was not aligned with the music. That is an editing fix, rather than a technical singing problem. Pronunciation. On words like well and hell, use the eh sound for the vowel and do not dwell on the 'LL' sound. L should be a light flick of the tip of the tongue at the end of the word, almost imperceptible. As for squeaky, it is hard to tell with so much reverb that it sounds like you are singing from the bottom of a water well. Other than that, your pitch sounded good, which is job number one. Getting the right pitch and then other things follow after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
