NOVEMBER COMMUNITY DEMO FEEDBACK

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION IS 11/28/22

---

Hello friends!  This is the initial post for this month's feedback session video!  What I will be doing is a video going through all of your tracks and creating a video leaving verbal commentary, and timestamping it accordingly, much like how I do my workshops and Q&A.

Here's how this works:

1. Provide a link to your demo in the comments.  Soundcloud links are acceptable, Google Drive and Dropbox are not.  (I understand that this will allow others to publicly see your demo, but I can't have my inbox flooded with demos - hopefully this is not a big deal to you.  Others will hear it anyway on the feedback video.)

2.  Make sure that Download is enabled on your demo.  If I am unable to download it, I cannot review it.

3.  Under your link, comment which aspect of the song you'd like me to focus on most.  (e.g., mixdown, arrangement, sound design, etc.)

4.  I will only be reviewing from the beginning of the song until the conclusion of the first drop.  For the sake of time, this is most effective.  If your demo spans to a second drop, understand that I will not be able to review it.  If your demo is only an intro and a drop, fantastic - this is all I will review anyway.  You can then take the notes provided and keep them in mind while formulating the rest of your song.

The review video will be created during the last week of the month, so make sure to get your submissions in earlier rather than later.

Once again, make sure to enable downloads!  It is very important for me to be able to visually monitor your track to provide the most accurate and pertinent feedback.

Let's get it!

Hey Coach! I know I'm a il late, so worst case I just get pushed to next month, but of course I would love if you could squeeze me in! I just wanted to make sure this track sounded nice before I sent it over! I went back and watched all of your mixing tutorials and holy shit did it ever improve my production quality tenfold. Anyways, here's the link! https://soundcloud.com/ckilganon/chaos-children-something-else-4/s-YegNaWJlDq1?si=2f77a3f496144504b5c278eb86587c84&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

Hey coach, been working on this song from last month (I know from the Q&A last month quanty over quality but that's hard for me lol) I took all the notes you gave me and applied them. Tech notes you gave 1. The sub was long notes and is now is cut up and follows the notes. Tried using the sub in your template couldn't get it to work (99% sure I fucked up somewhere with it) I ended up using a filter square 2. I added reverb to the main sound to fill the space 3. Side chain wasnt on (for some reason serumFX keeps turn it off whenever I open ableton) Side chain is now on for kick and snare 4.The fakout I cut in half and added the vocals for a pre-drop 5.I cut both drop 1A and 1B in half since you said it was too long 6. I added Syncopation with my snare because it got stale to me This time im just looking for feedback on the 2nd drop. Drop 2A and 2B sound really different and im not sure if I should change 2B to sound more like 2A. A overall opinion on the 2nd drop and any more technical tips would be appreciated. Side Note: Can't wait to see you on the 15th in Denver https://soundcloud.com/zakair/youre-my-fire/s-AJf4ynvDFlD?si=000c775ab73543fcb8d37f3d545b0930&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing
