Bump!

Hello, i was asked to master a Full-Length CD, and even though i have pseudo-mastered several times stuff from my band, it is the first time i decided to do some more drastic changes during the mastering process. I do not consider myself a Mastering Engineer, and i do it for free, but hopefully...

+3,14 I love this band (they are commercial but i don't give a f*ck), BUT: Lately, they repeat themselves (some parts are awesome but i get the feeling i have listened to some of the tracks before), and the mix is REALLY tiring. A more natural mix would be more than welcome, polished...

Thank you guys, finally some critisicm, bored of the "RAISE THE KIKZ" that the average drummer will probably tell you! ;) Hope someone else will comment too. (Ps. maybe i will post the other track we recorded when i finish editing/mixing it.)

I already improved my mix based on your critisicm, thank you so much. Managed to get some extra time to send the final mix, please anyone else tell me what you think, cheers

Bump, gotta send this track as soon as possible so any changes will be made today.

Considering your equipment it sounds decent! I wouldn't say the guitars sound thin, did you quad track them? Cheers!

Hello world! This is my first attempt as an "audio engineer" (i just started that's why i put in brackets) So, i upload this metalcore mix for you to hopefully give some feedback. Some info: Quad tracked guitars and programmed drums due to lack of a real kit. Snare and kick are replaced...

First demo ever recorded, imminent FAILS: *) Spent 1,5 days to find the best mic placement, amp settings and position of the pillows round the cab (used them because room acoustics/treatment was really bad, and they really helped us to improve and manipulate the sound) After 2 days of guitar...

So, just to make sure, you suggest to use Reaper? :lol: As i am not familiar with this specific DAW, so i will give it a test drive. Thank you :hotjump:

Hello! For the next few months i will be obliged to work with my old PC, an old Pentium 4 with either 256 or 512 (not quite sure yet, totally forgot) MB of RAM. What DAW/software should i choose? Would it be better to buy a used Sonar 4 on Ebay, or maybe a newer up-to-date version would run...

Hello! The ancient Greeks had a recipe for long, happy life: "Pan Metron Ariston" roughly translated as: "all good things in moderation." I wish i was reading about audio engineering as much as you do, but try to close your PC for 1-2 days! Cheers!

You mean in order to sing like him, or in order to have a cool and unique last name? :P Thank you for your kind words, we are planning to have our first full-length CD mixed by a pro, (preferrably from this forum!), so our debut album will surely have the best production possible! Cheers!

Hello metalheads round the globe! We are Revolted Masses, from Greece, and we just released our second Demo/EP, called "Seeds Of Revolt" We recorded/produced/mixed and mastered the whole thing, all done 100% DIY, and willing to give it to you for free, so any comments would be more than...
