ADR3-N's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[INK 20 [FULL MIXTAPE]]

Getting closer and closer to that clean ass studio sound. I would take the instrumentals down just a little bit -- at least Listerine in particular -- maybe add a chorus here and there to pump up your vocals in the space. Sounding better and better every time I hear from you, diction is slick.

Thanks for featuring me. I don't have time to give a proper review for the full mix but it's an honor <3

It's always an honor with CyberD.

[Last Battle]

UwU that intro tho, and those arps! I might take them down just a tad in the first bar they come in -- they're just a bit strong

Absolutely love what you've done with the bass. SUPER DETUNE! Wonderful arrangement and variety, sweet key change in the middle. I wonder how you manage it -- I get so attached to the same key haha

This is a bop. Looking at the waveform, I'm not sure if it's making the most of loudness, but that doesn't really matter unless I play another track after and have to turn everything down

I might take your bass down about .2 dB -- it sounds quite loud relative to the track even for dnb, but other than that, absolutely lit :3

Dieswyx responds:

I'm such a fan of detune and loud basses. :>

[Lotus Apparition]

Absolute fire

I didn't expect that harp to come in -- at first I thought it was dissonant to the intro, maybe outside the key

The vocoder coming in hits very nicely

A little bit of sibilance on the vocals -- might manually duck the s's

Occasionally the mix feels a bit hi-passed and low-mid heavy, perhaps over reverby. However I really enjoy the writing itself, and that makes up for a LOT. The detuned sound of literally everything and the motifs tying in together are perfect. Happy boi hours

May take the hi-hat and shakers down 2-3 dB

But other than that, masterful. Doesn't get old for 8 whole minutes. I have a short attention span. That's saying something

@cyberdevil absolutely killing the flows as always <3

S3C responds:

thanks for the great review! Appreciate the sensitive ears noticing the detuned sounds and the specific mixing suggestions- will def keep them in mind for new Cyberdevillian collaborations

[TrashMack]

5 straight stars for a nice bar rock vibe. Smooth, a little detuned, but sounds nice :3

[KYLE BEATS CONTEST ENTRY (from SC)]

Little bit treble heavy, but two hours? Nice freaking work. The beat is simple, but it works. I would take up the 808 up some, with the acapella. The shakuhachi and the hihats are a little bit in your face relative to the bass and acapella. 808 of course is what drives the genre. There's nothing in the range of that flute, so bringing it down won't push it all the way to the back.

I might add a light ping pong delay on 1/4 timing, at least for the last syllable of "now I got you 'fraid like uh-HUH" and throw that HUH out to one side or the other. A chorus might also do it well in places, for a silky feel.

Here from the playlist. Am I right to understand this is 14 days of quarantine? If so, you made damn good use of it. I wasn't expecting sweet, sweet blue grass when I showed up. Happily surprised

Dadush responds:

Yeah man - this was during the time at Uni where I had to quarantine because a flatmate had gotten covid symptom. Thought it was a good way to pass the time. Glad you enjoyed it :^)

[What Does a Demon Pray to?]

With a little compression, this would be perfect. You're an excellent story teller, great pace, nimble and with a nice range between characters and narrator.

[High up 1]

Yo, this would be lit if you could fix that clipping, digitally or otherwise in the recording. I think audacity has a decent clip fixer, although I generally use RX7. You have a nice voice for narrating.

Might also do you some good to EQ and compress so the mic doesn't lent to such a tinny sound. But no matter what you do, keep at it, and research how to improve at every chance you get. Practice will eventually make perfect, and you can re-record content of a nature such as this at a later date with just a few minutes and some patience :)

I also am good to clean recordings like these in small batches, just got to catch me on a day I'm off work

[Model (Модель)]

Произношение английских слов в целом точное, кроме shiver aha. Sounds to me like shivee. Но знаю что английская буква р трудная штука))

[Параллакс (Parallax)/Кислый Лис (Sour Fox)]

Ну, мне кажется "паралич" лучше подойдет. Ведь так называется состояние, в котором сижу, слушая этот гениальный трек. Интересуюсь в том, какие инструменты/FX использовали наиболее часто, чтобы эмулировать ну, как сказать спейс-рок хаха. Извини, давно не общалась по-русски, так что словарного запаса не хватает. В общем просто хотела сказать что звучит круто!
