I initially didn't really warm to the song when you posted it earlier - my ear kept being drawn the the guitar line that was slightly reminiscent of "Rainbow in the Dark" and I couldn't get past that. I'll offer that the way the vocals sound now in the mix w/ the Trident makes the song work so much better for me. Written by me, I also did backing vox, guitars, bass, drums.ĭonnythompson/i-still-see-you_jan-28-2015-mix-trident-2-bus-with-fade here's a mix with the VCC Trident on the 2-bus. The other remaining choice was the RCA Tube Console setting, and it was just too "thick" and lacked "silk" in the highs.Īnyway. I really like the API setting for tracks like guitars and kick/snare, it seems to make things "pop" more than the other settings, but on this, it "popped" a little too much LOL for what I wanted to hear. The SSL had a nicer definition on the lower end, but lacked punch in the mids. The Neve was almost too warm, rounding out the bottom end to where it sounded a bit too thick. I suppose I could have thickened it up if I had driven it harder, but this setting sounded the best, to me anyway. It seemed to give me the nicest balance of overall warmth and clarity. Surprisingly, I ended up choosing the Trident setting, with input levels set at +3 and the Drive setting at +2. As an offshoot of the current thread about the Slate VCC collection, I thought I'd experiment a bit and post a mix I did recently, using the Slate VCC on the 2-bus.
