'Hear and Identify'

Worst Version

8 faults:


1. there is a caugh and noise at the beginning,and more noise from 0.16 - 0.20. this effects the track because it doesnt sound good with the track and it is unexpected, it sounds unprofessional and wierd. this could of been prevented by muting the microphone while recording the instruments at the beginning, re-recording it, or editing it out on logic.

2. the instrumental at 0.00 starts out of time, and the timing is off and it sounds rushed. this couldve been prevented by re-recording it, using a metranome to keep in time. it couldve been fixed by quantising it on logic.

3. the microphone is fuzzy on 0.53 and on, it is not clear, sounds very fuzzy and blury, so from 0.00 - 0.53 he sounds quite clear then other bits like 0.53 and on sounds really blury and not clear, sounds like the microphone has bad quality and sounds wrong. this couldve been prevented by setting up the microphone differently, testing it out before recording.

4. music and vocals over power each other, at times the vocals is much louder then the music and then other times the music is louder then the vocals so its over powering each other, also the backing vocals are not clear and are quite fady. this couldve been prevented by editing the volume of the vocals and the volume of the music to match and sound equal.

5. tuning is really bad on 0.53 - 1.11, this point sounds really flat and out of tune, you could fix this by tuning the vocal on logic and putting the vocal into tune, fixing the pitch and changing the settings of the vocalist.
6. the panning is unstable and isnt in the middle, throughout the song the sound goes from the right ear to the left ear, from 0.00 and on the sound is on the right ear, then when it gets to 0.30 the sound transfers to the left and is more equal but the panning is stronger on the left ear, the panning keeps changing from left to right to equally to the middle. this could be changed by changing the panning settings on logic or what ever program is being used, changing the panning to equal and making sure non of the settings are to the left or to the right unless the producer purposely wants to have the panning unequally.

7. tuning is really bad from 1.35 - 1.43  this point sounds really flat and the lead vocalist does not sound equal with the backing vocals, this couldve been prevented by tuning the vocals to make it sound smooth and in tune.

8. 0.22 - 0.24 he sais 'with the degree' this is really out of time and the word 'degree' is really out of time,it sounds like the vocalist is hesitating and lost his timing but it is just the timing is not in time, this could be fixed by re - recording it, and quantising the timing and the beat to fit with the lyrics.
