Finished Works / Re: Portable Door - a Deep Purple tribute

« Last post by napoleonboot on October 07, 2024, 08:29:47 AM »

Hi, I have just updated the mix in the OP.

Jay invested in an improved Organ sound so resupplied his part. He also added a couple of small synth "swells" in the opening section which are lovely.

I did some minor tweaks to other levels and EQ while I was in there, which resulted in a slightly "heavier" overall sound to the mix.

I remember
That night in November
The time, that you left me   
Lost in the night

With no one to turn to, no, no one at all
Felt so alone
No one at home
Now, it%u2019s all in the past

Nothing good, ever lasts
 Oh, love, love%u2019s gone

And I%u2019m trying, I really am
Trying to leave it behind
But time, after time, after time
On my mind
             Oh, on my mind                     
      I can%u2019t make you be here
Can%u2019t make you forgive
The only thing that I can do
Is to live, without you
 Oh no no

Thanks Andy!

I actually figured out the midi to the bass to put some sub on it. But then thought it was ok.

Wow Nick, great to hear this MCS classic given a spit and polish job.

Super performances, and a solid mix.

If I may nitpick, I think the mix is a tad light on the bass, which could be brought up a bit in level or presence.
