Hopefully this is it now, took on board comments and finalised mixing and tracking panning and added some frilly bits such as piano reverses. Bass a little louder and tracked where some notes comparatively loud
Thanks again guys
if your aiming for the beatport market/earphones then i think you need to get the top end of the bass coming through, im listening on my laptop and cant hear it at all

Yea I hear you and darek, I'll but a bit more top line bass in, then hopefully get it stem mastered.
Cheers
BW I deleted 90% of my tracks of my hardrive just now, feel bloody liberated. Anyone else ever taken a brutal hatchet to their drive?
Hmm some uplifting trance from me, an old project that I'm determined to fix up, how is the mix sounding over there?

It sounds really warm and pleasant but I feel like it sounds busy in the mid range. Beautiful track though. It's a lot darker than what I'm used to hearing from you and I like that.
I totally changed the trap tune I was working on earlier and I'm way happier with it now.

Yea I totally see that, I got fatigued working on it and it started to sound good, needs to be re-mixed.(which will be a bitch, but I have some ideas)
Your wip sounds very clean over here on my headphones. keep an eye on sub low end when changing notes, u can try adaptive eq.

Sounding good n serious, not too sure if I like the pronounced sidechaining, I sort of just want to hear those synths better

What do you mean by this, do you mean the sub getting softer and louder when the note changes even when the notes have the same velocity and level on the mixer?

When the kick drum's sub changes notes it changes its frequency (obviously) and sometimes a sub hitting an F# sounds great in the mix but when it hits a note higher (for instance) it can sound muddy. Often you have to separate the notes into different tracks and EQ them differently. Like, I'm boosting the 100hz a bit on my kick tail which sounds great and present on the root note but when it changes there's a bit too much in that area and it sounds blown out.

Ah ok. I sometimes have issues where as the sub goes higher in a chord progression it's a lot louder than when it is lower so that's why I asked.

Actually was just listening to an old track of yours the other day, "Lumen". I thought the mix was outstanding. I think this one could use some adjusting in the final mixdown. The kick sounds too soft, or is lacking in fullness to me.
However, this is a beautiful progressive house track. Really interested to hear it finished. Hope you will send me a promo of it when it is done!
