Could be one of two things AFAIK - 1) improper eqing
2) crappy audio engine I don't know how good Fruity Loops' audio engine is, but it may just not process sound as well as other programs. I had a big problem with muddiness at first too. Of course, I didn't know shit about EQing back then either. I don't know how familiar you are with mixing down but being pretty new to it myself i've had a bunch of problems dealing with muddiness. A good guideline to go by for making your mix less muddy: MOST ELEMENTS CAN STAND TO HAVE A NOTCH TAKEN OUT OF THE MIDRANGE FREQUENCIES. Usually stuff gets muddy around here. Sorry if I didn't tell you anything you already know. Tell us a little more about the steps you take to do a mixdown and maybe i (or someone else here) can be of more assistance! :) ~Andy -----Original Message----- From: James Stratford [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2003 2:09 PM To: Drum & Bass Arena Discussion List Subject: [dnb-prod] Production Hello there forum!!!! I have a question if anyone would be decent enough to answer. Production wise I use fruityloops and vst plugins to create the sounds I am after but the sound from the overall mix I find is quite muddy and not so crisp sounding. Is there any one thing that I should be paying particular attention to in so far as the mixdown goes or do you feel it is a problem inherent with fruityloops? Any comments would be most appreciated. stratty --- Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
