EclipseProduction's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lunar Shadows]

This is amazing!

Just curious, did you play the instruments and vocals?

tBAudioMI responds:

Hey, thanks for listening!
I played all the guitars, bass, and drums. The vocals were done by a vocalist I had worked with in college named Anna Armstrong. She also appeared on my "Salty Sardine" album. The keyboards and synths are all programmed. I'm not a keys player, haha!
Thanks for listening! Hope you enjoyed it!

[I Spit The Blood Again]

Amazing vocals dude. I think they are a little loud though. I would compress them a little if you haven't and blend them a little better.

Good shit.

Mischa-head responds:

Thanks a lot man, and yeah I agree actually. It's just a rough mix, but I was excited to put the song out.

Cheers.

[Neckbreaker]

Hmmm is that metal machine I hear?

RaneMusic responds:

For this song i used the standart "EZ drummer 2 modern basic".
What´s funny is: I only have one extra kit. And that is Metal machine :D
But well... I didn´t use it in this song ;)

[Hollow Body]

Damn my dude, this is some top quality shit. What did you use for that tone? And also how do you manage to push your mix that loud?

Schianovus responds:

Guitar tone? I'm using Toneforge - Menace vst for the virtual amp.

For the second question it's a long process, but mainly do frequency separation and hard compress for most of the instruments. In mastering, I put glue compressor and compress around 4 db, adjusting a bit of the tone with multi band compressor / EQ, putting stereo enhancer, then push the volume with limiter (A.O.M. Invisible Limiter), I'm aiming the dynamic range to 4

[80s speed metal]

I like it dude. I'd suggest knocking some of the high end off those cymbals though, they kinda pierce the ear.

Banana-head responds:

Thanks for the feedback, i still have a lot to learn about mixing, EQ and stuff. It doesnt help that i dont have a earphone yet to listen to my stuff better.
