    Yes, very close, 2 year ago, I've done several collabs with you here, mostly Classic Rock, Genesis, etc. I'm sure we will collab again.

    Frank, Ross, Shawn, I want to hear your comments. I've spend couple of hours working on the mix, I think it is almost ready, but let me know what you think, we've all worked on this together and my ear are getting old, so I welcome your feedback. For me this cover sounds AMAZING!!, the best of all that I started.

    I think it's a rather good-sounding mix. I ran it through the mastering cycle on Bandlab and it added some punch to it, brightened up the highs and beefed up the lows. I've posted it there if you want to hear it. It's not night and day, but definitely different: https://www.bandlab.com/post/f....eb35d1c-70a3-ed11-99

    Shawn, It really sound much better!! and It didn't lose any of my subtle attempt of stereo distribution. Definitely, that audio could be used on the Video release for YouTube :) If I'm not mistaken, you are pretty good with Video Productions, right? I think I've seen couple of your BandHub videos editions several years back.

    @Megasis : Yes, I've done a number of videos of collabs. Lately though I've had very little time for entertainment video creation. I could basically put a quick one together just using the existing BH video, and using the mastered track and send it to you to post on your YT channel. Would that work for you?

    No that's fine, let me take a shot at that. I've already downloaded all the Video tracks, and I save your Master Mix (Bandlab). audio. By the way, I've been using Cakewalk DAW even before Bandlab bought it from Roland? or , for more that 25 years. I tried to use Bandlab but I rather using the DAW in my PC. Never the less, I would like to take a look at the Mastering Cycle.

    @Megasis : Yes, I only use Bandlab for the mastering ability (though that's possibly questionable as it's probably not a one-size-fits-all sort of thing). My home DAW is Adobe Audition. The DAW on BH is very difficult work with, what with having to press the PLAY and STOP buttons rather than it being connected with the SPACE bar. And zooming in to the track, in an attempt to slide shorter tracks into place is a real nightmare. Anyway, best wishes on the video creation. I'm glad that so many people have started creating videos on their own. It's fun seeing the different styles :)
