in English please?

*is deathly tired right now*

 

When a note in the bass hits (called the Attack), it doesn't sound very good.  I don't know how really describe it other than it feels 'muddy'.  Cleaning it up, or making it sound better, would be maybe lowering the level of the attack or putting an EQ on it and simply cutting them out all together.

 

I don't know if I can get any more simpler than that.  The Music business is pretty specific when it comes to terminology.

but the Attack knobs are all the way down... and i'm too tired to think of how i could possibly use any EQ on this.

That might be your problem, actually.  Turn them up and lower the sustain.  It should roughly sound the same, but with a punchier beginning.

i think i might be getting somewhere with this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/sske62tji9h6jo6/Crystallize.wav

 

The part right after 1:30 sounds really cool. I dig it.

 

Perhaps you could add more auxiliary percussion to the intro to spice things up a bit more, besides just the hats. Also (and this is based more on personal preference), it would probably be a good idea to find some better hat samples for this song. They sound too "default" and a bit antiquated. You can take that advice with a grain of salt, though.

 

Sounds nice.

Intro is a little boring, but it's still a WIP.  You might want to clean up the attack on your bass.  Seems pretty muddy to me.

 

Which bass are you talking about? The one in the intro, or after 1:30?

 

I didn't really notice much about either one. You probably know more about this than I do, though.

After 1:30.

However, I've been staring and listening to my own tracks all day, so I'm a little more receptive to it, I guess.  If you think it's good, though, I'm sure it's fine.

If we're thinking of the same "muddiness," the effect might be contributing to the overall sound of the bass.

Indeed it is, and I haven't seen it.

 

Oh and hello fellow Nascar fan, considering all the car pictures :)
