@actioncat,
I'm endlessly trying to figure out my listening situation, and some more feedback would be appreciated.
You mentioned there were some things you don't like.
-Low end is the devil in my basement box. Was it a low end issue? Too much, too little? Too raw? Unrefined?
-Mids, I'm guessing it was way too much 700-2000 or so? I almost felt powerless to stop the buildup. All part of the process I guess.
-I know I spent too much time processing the strings, but I'm curious how you perceived them compared to the brighter mixes.
-am I asking the wrong questions? Did it just sound shitty to you in comparison?
Thanks, anything would be appreciated.
@Compyfox -- I truly appreciated your mix notes and documentation, it motivated me to take a closer look at what I'm doing and how I'm allocating my time. Also, writing down each step of a mix has already been extremely informative.

How to do this, that and the other. Share, learn, teach. How did X do that? How can I sound like Y?

MIX CHALLENGE - MC26 October 2016 - Winners announced
2016-09-30T23:38:12+00:00
Hello and welcome to the KVR Mix Challenge 26 - October 2016
This is the introduction post, where we directly link to the challenge corresponding files (source files, submission information, sponsors), start of the evaluation process and the first post for re-submissions for Mix Round 2.
This month, we're shaking things up a bit!
First and foremost, we get the chance to mix an awesome 90's Hip Hop track with Jazz/Funk elements, provided by Action Cat . His track is called "Tomorrow" and blends Public Domain movie sound snippets and a jazzy piano with old school hip hop beats.
Also some news
-----------------
I'm very proud to announce that we are now having an official homepage ! :party:
You can find it here: http://www.mix-challenge.com
The page has been weeks in the making and will still see a couple of fine-tunings in the near future (mainly the rule set being ported over, a Winners Podium listing). Our goal is to offer a better reach, while having one global place to always come back to. It's a much more comfortable/streamlined version of the "Rules & Guidelines" thread, not to mention can you read at an instant what audio material we are after for future Mix Challenges. No more split threads that are easily overlooked and/or nobody finds. And the best thing on it: it's a responsive web design, suitable for mobile devices and desktop browsers.
So please get involved, enjoy browsing the page, leave us a message via Mail or our Social Media accounts
And if you want, share your feedback or ideas for page add-ons in the Gossip and Discussion thread.
Please take note of the following
we're now having an official webpage - it can be found via http://www.mix-challenge.com
as of MC17, the rule set has been overhauled/simplified - please take note of them in the Rules and Guidelines thread.
our Twitter Account can be found via the handle @MixChallenge
Also Important:
We're desperately looking for new source material for future Mix Challenges. Our pool is in constant fear of running dry. Please follow our official campaign . No new tracks, no more challenges!
We especially still look for a Hard Rock/Metal Track for Metal November (MC27). If you know somebody in this area that is looking for alternative mixes, please forward him to us
Please also spread the word on your preferred social media platform. Our Twitter Account is already a good start
This post will be updated with the corresponding links as we progress, and of course the suitable thread headlines. So please watch this spot:
