ADR3-N's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Strike Strikes Pt.2]

This isn't bad. Could use an overarching melody and a dedicated bass rather than just the single line arp. We get some atmospheric synths later but this doesn't do much for the track. Also, the super high pitched arp at the end is almost ear breaking for me. Overall, it was listenable, but not my preference.

HEYitsTHAToneGUY25 responds:

Thanks I appreciate your critique, and yea melody seems like a good idea, i just didnt want to crowd the mix with too much going on, but i get your point.

And yea sorry about that ending, I tried to give it some kind of ending flare but i guess it didn't work out, but anyway your response is duly noted for a reference of some things i should and shouldn't do.

And Thanks for the Scout, Right on man!

[Thearseri]

Not bad. Simple chord progression. Mixing isn't bad from what I hear. Progresses a little slow for my taste, and a lot of the instruments sound like presets. Crashes are too loud. Rest of the perc could stick out a bit more and be good. There just isn't much differentiating one part of the track from the other, no overarching melody, etc.

TheSecondAxeman responds:

Thanks for the feedback! The instruments weren't presets, however some were derived from them as I'm not incredible at working with certain synths just yet. Cheers!

[Alan Walker - Faded (Penta Remake)]

Tons of distortion in the mix. Fix that, and this might be alright. Just sort of feels overdone all over.

EndyDashGD responds:

Cuz this is made in caustic, and it is my remix

[FL studio PC test]

This is spam quality audio, honestly. Now, if you'd called it "ear rape" I'd have given a better rating. Study your program a bit more.

EndyDashGD responds:

This is my first time with fl studio, i didnt studied the program

[The Art of Staying Calm]

This is pretty fantastic. Man, I would love to get a hold of this and lay something down over it. Would love to know any equipment, virtual amps, etc. Just sounds great.

RobSoundtrack responds:

Thanks man! Some old stuff but i really wish i finished this out with vocals i had laid out.
2012?
I think i was using the Engl E530 preamp, into the back of a bogner power section, into a eminence 1x12, into sm57?
Guitar was probably Ibanez rg7320 with dimarzios.

Kinda convoluted, feel free to msg me if this is not even what you were asking lol

[ENtrance - Belgrade (Original Mix)]

This would be a fantastic mix if the mid and high around 4-10k were not so pumped up. Bring those down and my heart will be happy. Also, watch distortion on that piano part, or just distortion, period. There seems to be a little of it going on.

Thank you sir :)

[Soular Order]

This is pretty dope stuff. Probably would fit better in hip-hop though. It sounds like really laid back trap music. No real complaints here except I wish the sub bass were a bit louder and a bit more kick to it. Good work!

AnubisInc responds:

Yeah I understand that. Hip Hop people tell me that this sound isn't Hip Hop enough to be in the genre, and I get the same from EDM people, so I just post it as whatever lol.
