According to Eventide, SplitEQ 2 comes out next week. Seems like it will be a pretty massive upgrade from stuff mentioned in the description. I use SplitEQ all the time, so I’m looking forward to playing with this one. What do yall think? “SplitEQ 2 is a major step up from the original. New in this version are six dynamic bands, real-time masking visualization, side chain, and Global Dynamics control. Plus, various performance improvements.”

Hi everyone, I hope all of you are doing well and making lots of great music! We're getting close to finishing our new album, From Here To There, by Dean Rector and The Zone, and I'd love to get your feedback on our latest song. This version of 'Lost In A Dream' is still pre-master, but your thoughts on the song, mix, arrangement, or overall feel would be greatly appreciated. Your feedback helps us make the best possible decisions before the final release. Thanks for taking a listen!~ https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B1XDjEw-Fxk7JcDUAG8uui2algtSc970/view?usp=sharing

(EDIT: Probably done with it, LOL. https://www.skool.com/mastering/my-ftm-26-11-wicme-mix-feedback-wanted?p=038bf8f1 ) Hey guys, I probably should've posted this on Tuesday, but after having finished, I was in "recovery mode" and also quite busy the next days... So, this is still the same mix+master I entered the contest with; I worked less than 10 hours on it, including a 2h break and a lot of shorter ones. When checking my second master export, I got a "dentist drill tinnitus" and knew it was definitely time to finish. (Maybe listen now and then compare your thoughts to my own notes in the next paragraph?) So, I usually try to figure out myself in a clear-headed manner, why the finalist tracks were chosen instead of mine. This time I'm pretty sure the drums were the main problem. I hardly ever listen to hard Rock subgenres or Metal, especially on headphones, so, especially when I re-listened to my version today, I though "it might be caused by your remembering how you listened to Metal-like stuff on cheap earbuds in the youth". I was "satisfied enough" with the drum sound itself and didn't do much except for adding bx_SubSynth (Plugin Alliance) and Baby Audio Subculture on kicks and reducing the harshness of cymbals, having rather disregarded following the usual Foundation-First way strictly enough. Otherwise I can't remember doing anything to them except what I did to every group - using ADPTR Sculpt and adding some reverb. So, they indeed feel more like "earbud drum hits" instead of those carefully crafted "3D-depth" drum sounds I heard from other contestants. With the VOX I mostly battled with the annoying-sounding reverb on the plosives, both in the mix and the master. I got it to where I could tolerate them, but I often do concentrate on a small detail problem that many others would not notice, and could actually lose overview over bigger-scale problems, until someone more experienced leads my attention to them...

This isn’t my genre, but damn, I got so much joy mixing this song. I especially like the end section of the song🤘 + After revision, I added 3dB into the limiter and some another adjustments now this mix sounds more satisfying to me than previous version.
