Vocals...better, still high smile Drop the HQ, see what happens., I believe your vocals are strong enough to retain clarity and cut through the mix, without upping high end.
Thank you for sharing!

Misha.


Hi Misha, I was a little late in replying the posts on this song. There were reasons, but still; Sorry!
You gave a very nice reply on the song. thanks for that. But it are these EQ-s that bother me most. I turned everything down. included D-es plugins. I think I just have sharp vocals...
Maybe you should help me on that one day?

You're approaching ice pick frequqncies on some of the vocals.
The 1st chorus, actually all of the choruses, bvox could be a little tighter.
Well done.
I'm not sure if you had this really loud or the ice pick did appear...my brain hurts.


Hi Ray, look what I wrote Misha (above). Same counts for you, despite one thing. I know you can really exaggerate. To me it seems impossible to hurt your brain. It can only tickle a bit...
But thanks a lot for all your comments!

Janice says she hears Bowie and Jagger in the vocals...they are cool.

Rock on Hans!

Hi Janice and Bud, I am so fond of what you wrote And that picture! Look what I had to write to Misha and Ray. Can you understand why they always complain to me about hurted brains and EQ-issues? I doubt if they read what Janice sais about my voice. And of course she is right about that, because she sings all stars from heaven (a Dutch proverb). I pasted her text on my wall!
Thanks for your words!

Hi Tom, now you start mentioning that eq too! No, I am in a mellow mood now, I think. I am really fond of what you wrote and the EQ is a nasty issue for me. My tinitus has the same frequency so it's a bit difficult to hear this right. I am trying to and please continue telling me if I did something wrong or whatever. I learn from this. Maybe slowly, but steady...
So thanks a lot for your nice response!

Thanks and stay safe overthere,
Hans
