Hey no problem. Not sure if you're aware but Slate Trigger 2 has the ability to like run your live drums through the plugin and it records it as MIDI data, which is great for situations like you describe where you need to do heavy edits but it' sounding fake. Then you can use the samples in...

also just fyi you can upload stuff to Soundcloud and share it that way

listening on crappy headphones at the moment but I like the guitar sound. It has some balls to it and doesn't have scratchy high end that I can hear. I agree the drums sound a bit lifeless, can't tell if it's samples or like the other dude said how there's just hardly any cymbals or toms. The...

I'm pretty damn happy with this mix right now, but I wanted to see what you guys think of it, any constructive criticism is always welcome! Thanks guys!

Btw, are you saying to low cut the main guitars at 4-6K? That seems SUPER low. Most people I know do it around 8 k, which I did in this updated mix

Updated Mix: Let me know your thoughts. incorporated the opinions from this thread

Thanks, I'm opening the mix now with my good headphones on and I'm gonna take another crack at it with these notes in mind!

Well damn. No monitors right now. I have audio technica MTH-150s, don't use em often cause they're uncomfortable to me. I'm remixing it tonight and I'll take all these opinions into account. Can you give me any kind of helpful info, like what exactly you don't like? Certain frequency ranges that...

also, do you mean just the guitars, or the drums and everything else also?

Thanks! I'll redo the guitars on this. I'm glad it's the guitars and not the drum and bass that are the problem, because those are usually what I have trouble with lol.

Thanks for the feedback man! Yeah I was watching some tutorials and trying to take the bass out of the guitars and have the actual bass take up that frequency range, but yeah I feel the same way, the guitars are too thin and trebly.

Any constructive criticism definitely appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks! The last mix I posted on here everyone said was too muddy and bass heavy, so I guess I went too far in the other direction. Aside from that how does it sound? I'll up the kick and bass

Updated mix: The last one I did was way too bass heavy which was making everything muddy. Now I feel like the guitar is a bit too treble-y, and maybe I need to reduce the mids more on the sim also? And bring the bass up maybe? Anytime I try to bring the bass up it seems to overtake the...

Lol yeah I'm still learning. The drums are from a guitar pro file so they are very robotic sounding obviously. But I would like to learn how to craft a better snare sound. I used a different snare in the mix I just posted above.
