    Help needed! Nightwish Century Child Snare sample

    Jarenare, thank you very much! I knew that I can trust this forum. Here´s very small sample using that snare sample blended with original. Maybe I got it close enough Nightwish snare sound. https://www.dropbox.com/s/dp4hapmn6bxxyap/Nightwish%20snare.mp3?dl=0

    Help needed! Nightwish Century Child Snare sample

    Hi, I´m mixing a band who said they wanted Nightwish Century Style style snare sound. Drums are already programmed so one hit sample would enough to recreate the sound. If you know any sample near that sound in the deep jungles of internet, please let me know! And thank you for your time! I...

    Massive Mixing Practice - Architects "Naysayer" - Multitracks For You!

    First time to hear clean and separated Zombass and FTS Edge Bass, and wow! Those definitely sound like a real bass, but played by hyper fast and accurate robot. Is there somekind of humanizer knob available on them, like there is on drum programs

    Systematic Mixing Series #0: Introduction & Glossary

    Are you going to put this on Apple´s appstore or itunes? I´m not familiar with paypal, and I´m reading all my pdf books with Ipad, so it would be nice if I could buy your book in ipad with Itunes account.

    Mix feedback for Pantera/Metallica stylish band that I´m mixing

    Thanks for your comments! I´m going to do those tweaks on toms and snare. The band gave me DI and miked amp tracks. I don´t know what amp they were using, there´s a distortion pedal on it surely. Miked probably with 57. I need to ask those. Amp track is mixed with lowcut 200hz and highcut 6khz...

    Jens Bogren guitar tone

    Some things that come to mind from jens´s guitar sound: airy, thin, middle focused, open, big, trebbly but not harsh. Lot of 1k, not so much 3k, and lot of top end 6k-> Soilwork´s The Panic Broadcast has got amazing guitar sound, but it´s surprising that how thin it actually is. Still sounding...

    Can someone please give critics to my mix and maybe some advices???

    Nothing to criticize. Very good mix. Guitars are cool and vocals clear. Maybe drums could have more dimension? More reverb or room to them. Solo guitar is a bit too middle heavy. Too much that honky freq, 800hz maybe. And not enough hi end, 7 khz. Hope that those help. This is very finished mix...

    Mix advice

    Bass is lacking. I cant hear what it is playing, not even in that section where drums and bass play alone. Guitars are nice and natural. Drums are too dry and cymbals are too low. More room mics to drums or some reverb. Drum sounds are still good and clear. No need for more eq. Mastering could...

    Critique my mix! Revision, Revised

    First drum fill sounds too boxy and unnatural. Too much 400hz. Are those real drums with triggers or just programmed ones? The whole mix needs more that "diamond" hi. Boost above 8k maybe. Vocals sound very good. For mastering I would just compress and limit this more. This kind of music needs...

    Feedback for a newbie

    Burma? Same as Myanmar? Wow. Very international website. I think the Rhythm guitars loud aproach is cool and makes guitars sound huge. Guitars have too much hi end. -2db with hi self from 4k maybe? Drums sound too distant. Maybe too much reverb, or too dull sounds compared to guitars. Snare is...

    Mix feedback for Pantera/Metallica stylish band that I´m mixing

    Hi, I´d like to get feedback for my recent mix. Band has said Metallica´s Black Album for reference sound. I have taken a bit more modern view, but not ultra modern! Band has recorded tracks by themselfs, so tracks were not so good to start with, but they know that and are not expecting...
