Song 3 - “Crazy” by Gnarls Barkley

First, well done @groaner - sounds great
Second - agree with you they are different, not just his voice, bass too.
One is boomier than the other, which suggests some sort of EQ difference.
Gain is different on each too.

Gain is easy to explain if there is a default in Resolve.
The question would be - Which rendering mode did you select to output from Resolve?
I always pick the YouTube one, which seems to be fine.
Davinci recently added some new renderings up front and moved YouTube over a bit, perhaps you picked one of these or picked different ones each time?

Thanks John. I’ll check that. I’m not proficient or versed in the settings at all so I just chose “Deliver” and changed the format to MP4 and default Audio

I’ll try out the Youtube option!

Ah. I have never used that audio panel. Just use the video panel and pick YouTube. Whatever you picked is causing it.

But it’s happening even before I export it.
I need to reset defaults or something. I’m going to post this to the BlackMagic subreddit.

Found the issue. I have 2 Audio Tracks!

Mute one, sounds great. I’m not sure how 2 got in there. I must have dragged the source in twice by mistake or because i was mucking around and when i deleted the video I left the audio behind.

ARGH. I’ll redo the export and upload it.

Sorry for all the noise above while I sorted out my audio. Here’s the final version with the fixed audio. Forum moderators, If you want to clean up the comments above, go for it and I can edit this post to be my official.

At least you found a reason!

Here’s my take, I tried to imitate the higher overtones as well. Playing fingerstyle on flatwounds, I tried to bring them out in post processing, the result is not the most consistent but to me it sounds better than just deep bass so here it is:

Nice job @jakub.r.salata
You certainly got the overtones.
I could swear you are using a pick, lol.

Good timing throughout, well done!

Well they overlap with the original audio overtones (too specific and narrow range to easily filter out) but I think the difference between mine and original can be heard. Thanks for the kind words.

Good job Jakub! I still play this occasionally.

Here’s my submission for song 3. Per suggestions from others, this time just using bass-less backing tracks and myself. Slightly off at parts, but overall I’m satisfied to move on to song 4 (I’m determined to make it through all of them, even songs I dislike, in order :slight_smile:).

Enjoy, and as always feedback welcome.

Great job @brik1970
Sounds and feels good to me!!!

Please also post in the Post your Covers thread, not everyone comes over here and this way it gets counted in the annual totals.

Thanks folks, appreciate the feedback.

Just to be clear, all 50 song challenge posts should go both in the appropriate thread in this sub-forum as well as the Post your Covers thread?

I’m not sure what you mean by the “annual totals”?

Correct.

Terb tallies and lists each years covers but only monitors the Post Your Covers Thread.

Thank you for the clarification, should I post the first 3 of the 50 song challenge that I’ve done to the Post your Covers thread?
