reverbs that i used:
a. hall
b. plate
c. and one with a very short reverb and fast early reflection

heres what i did: started from the vocals. (very soulful ) eq'd to fix frequencies that i did'nt like, and add another eq to enhance another frequencies. ive used a little bit of compression for the quiet parts to even it with the louder ones. then add a limiter to limit some of the loud ones.
then send it to 2 of the reverb bus i made. ( a.hall and b.plate)

2nd is mic'd bass. added eq to fix. (LF at 30 Hz and HF at 1.3k ,lessen a few db at 174 Hz and 3.2 k,boosted a bit in 100 Hz. then added a bit of compression.

3rd is the di'ed bass.added mixtool to invert. (phase problem when both bass plays) then added eq to fix (LF in 177 ) lessen a few db at 7k, boosted a bit at 2.5 k

send the the two bass tracks to reberb bus ( b. and c. )

4th is kick. added eq to fix and enhance. (LF at 70 Hz) boosted a bit around at 1.5 and 4.5 k
added a little bit of compression.send it to reverb bus ( c. ) and another send to a squash bus and a clean one

5th is snare.added binaural pan. added eq to fix and enchance. added a little bit of compression (Lf at 130 Hz) sent it to a squash bus and clean bus . and another to a reverb bus ( c.)

6th is the overheads .eq'd to fix.boosted a bit at 20k,lessen a bit at 3k. lessen at few db's at 100k added another eq. for enhancement on some freq.added binaural pan. panned it a bit. added mixtool for a few db's then sent it to my reverb bus (a. and c.)

7th is the guitar. added eq. (LF at around 134) lessen a few db's at around 337 Hz, 3k, and 7k. added a little bit of compression. added binaural pan. panned it a bit. then i sent it to reverb bus ( a. and b. ) added an fx bus with a bit of delay and sent it there.

added binaural pan at my clean and squash bus for drums. mix the levels. and voila. done :)

Artistic intentions:

This song was recorded live and a effort was made to maintain that live performance feel. i did make the kick and bass hats a little louder.(imean were i can feel the kick and bass) cause i think they're driving the feel / groove of the song .the soulful vocals on top of them. and the overdriven guitar.(of course everthing is important)

i really did enjoy mixing and listening.. learning hands on.. listening and listening and listening
( i had a hard time mixing cause i dont have any studio monitors.. did this only at my spare time. ( like 1 am to 6am haha In a span of a month (half a month ) ive added a reference track for me to have something to refer to. spent many countless hours trying to mix this one. enjoyed and learned ;)

thanks guys. ;)

please do make a comment for me to learn more. ;)
