Description
Haunted by doubts about his own skills, a samurai embarks on a journey to the Far Reaches, seeking wisdom and strength to reclaim his confidence.
To be honest, I had some troubles coming up with ideas for this, so once again I tried to keep it simple. I still struggle with mixing and mastering orchestral pieces.
Plugins used:
- BBC Symphony Orchestra (Horns, Spiccato Violas/Violin, Flute)
- DSK AsianDreamZ (Flute).
- Taiko Drum by Sample Science
- Sakura by FL Studio
- Strings Section by FL Studio

The mixing kind of gets really muddy once all the instruments kick in, it becomes hard to hear through how intense the lows and mid-lows are.
The instrument choice is nice, although I'm hearing a lot of people used Taiko drum. Certainly far from bad, it's a good track, I just think there could have been a lot more texture and melodic work here.
True, I tried a few things for that part in 1:00, EQ, Compression and more. But it ended too thin or too loud. Now that you mentioned, I though it was the middle frequencies, but it is actually the low ones. I will try a few changes.
Thanks for the feedback!
I think what would really help is if you rolled up your EQ. Check around the 30-40hz range, make some minor tweaks there and it should be really solid with some panning, dial everything down and add a split doubler (Here's a free one - https://www.kvraudio.com/product/thesplit-by-thezhe ) and sort of dial it up real slow in the mix till it sounds wider and louder without clipping or needing to saturate.
