Another new track from La Belle Alliance.

Please take a listen, this one is a bit different.
It's called "I Woke Up To Find"

i really liked your last one and im the same about this. its very very well produced. Nice feel of the ttrack. verrry simple but it works. its got that thing about it that keeps you interested.
Yup, at 2.14 now. thats what i call music man. serious potential here.

Just a quick Q about it, production wise. do you know the way all the sounds are really easy going on the ears, yet really present ya? is this to do with final compression or reverb or what? Help on this would be appreciated coz its been boggling my mind for a while now about producion in general. If you dont get what im asking pm me and ill try n explain my question more.

thanks man,
Brian

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

We are not gigging yet - haven't figured out the live setup yet - it's difficult to know what's acceptable onstage for largely computer/synth based music.

Now I'm no expert on production - there are professionals visiting this board I believe, but here goes:

I find the panning of each track helps the clarity enormously. I tend to pan the bass sounds in the middle with the higher ranges such as guitars/vocals/synths panned left or right.

As far as effects goes, I generally compress vocals and bass ranges and add reverb to snares/vocals/synths/pianos etc. but not too much.

Also, make sure you dont have all your tracks at a high volume because you lose control over the mix.

I picked up most of these tips from Computer Music Magazine and by browsing websites. Also, if you keep doing it long enough you will gradually get an ear for whats right.

Trust your own ears is the best policy.

There are probably loads of other small tips that others could contribute (invitation).

Thanks again.

Jonathan.
