Hi!!!
OMG, I listened to this on my cellphone the other day, and I said to myself, “I really have to listen on my monitors when I get home,” but it slipped my mind, and I am so glad you bumped the thread!!
This is really awesome as a track. Combining her vocal, and your beats worked out well. If she is interested, you might consider a long term collab with her, cause your music fits with her.
As for what you are asking!! Yes! This mix is totally bass heavy. As you know, I never would have noticed on my cell phone, as those speakers do not tell you anything. The bass is overtaking the entire track, its not mixed well. If you tell me how you mixed this bass… ( Is there compression, is there eq, is there a little delay ) I could have more input.
I think the bass in this mix should be brought way down… and compressed, or compressed differently, and I think you need to send everything through eq… like a lp filter, with the cutoff @ 500 htz er something like that standard…
After that, I actually think you should bring the vocals up a bit… but I can’t say for sure, cause I do not know what the mix would sound like, if the bass was a little better.
Finally… “entry monitors.”
I am using Alesis MK 2… But I think they have been taken off the market, and replaced by a new product. Alesis is very good, imho!! But Adams has a new entry level too!! I believe they are called the F5. I would shy away from anything Event, or Mackie!!
Now… These ( equators ) have a 30 day Money back guarantee! ( Read the website, last time I read the site, I saw the guarantee, but I hope you confirm if you get interested in these. )

I have heard ZERO feedback about these equator audios, but I keep telling myself, “next time I am in the market, I am going to try em.”
What I can tell you about the equator’s is you are purchasing factory direct!! Sometimes, when you buy factory direct, you really score. If you are a sport, and you purchase the equators, could you please post your experience in the General Forums Recent Monitor Thread…
Thanks
