this is an album im working on id really appreciate any feedback even if its just "that was good" or some shit.

although if anybody has any in depth critique i would like that as well.
i know the mastering and mixing is a little wonky, audition crashes every 2 seconds and i have no other good way of recording so thats my excuse for that!!

oh and if anyone wants the lyrics then IM me because theres too many to post here!!

"History vol 1" -around 2:12 I like the music's beat it reminds me of old-school sidescrollers. "The Land of the free" is my 2nd fav although I feel just an all music track of that one would be great. "Never" had a good low gritty beat that I would like to use in something but I dont know what, and Infinity was enjoyable as well. :]

yes

although the groundwork for most of the tracks was done some months ago

most of the work was done in the last 3 days

that is, the songwriting and production

i really liked the melodies and lyrics of these songs a lot. i kinda wish you had used different instruments other than the midi-sounds tho.
i enjoyed the acoustic sound a lot more but thats just me

Wow, you're really talented! I like all of these tracks (thought I sometimes can't hear the vocals in a couple of them).

You probably put a shit ton of effects on each instrument plus the vocals. I'm guessing you do all the mixing and stuff in the multitrack session? If you want to limit the amount of crashing it does just go to the FX section for some of the tracks and click the big, green "FX Power" button to disable the FX for a particular track. Audition actually stopped crashing and went a lot smoother when I started doing that for enormous mixing projects.

Also, are you using Audition's defaults?

yeah i do it all through the effects mixer, and ill take your advice on that next time i load up a session. also yeah i mostly use auditions default effects. the only vsts i use are autotune and ozone for compression when i dont like the defaults.

but yeah thanks! i appreciate the help and feedback!

I would look into getting Waves plug-ins... like the Mercury or Diamond bundle. I think you'll like it.

this song is called "enjoy the magic (sweet milk)" and is actually not even farther snake related and is part of a different project called beforetoise (before tortoise, pun on farther snake) in which i play guitar!
its semi-parody of pop punk songs and fuck you
