Yeah its got some seriously catchy melodies in it and the production is ace.

Hey, I've been listening to this track for like a month now and its really damn good. The track is simply called guitar test.mp3 and I've completely forgotten where I got it. I know I downloaded it while reading through a forum for guitar tone suggestions and I'm pretty sure it was this one. If...

Dude this mix is class, that's really similar to the guitar tone that I try to get with my amp sim's. I think I'd like to hear a bit more bass guitar in the mix it seems a little bit tame to me. The drums sound great that's a whopper kick and snare.

Yeah you're definitely compressing the whole mix too much. It makes the guitar sound like its being sucked by a hoover. I'd pan your guitars more extremely as well maybe 66% left and 66% right, that's if you even double tracked which I can't tell if you did or not. The guitar tone is actually...

What mic are you using? and what way is it placed? Cause it sounds like you're placing it a bit too much of axis, hence all the bass and presence but no mid crunch. edit:maybe even a picture would give more information than you could in words

Hey all, Since this is my first thread on the site I suppose I'd better introduce myself. I'm a 20 year old sound engineering student from Ireland and I love writing my own short songs to practice any new mixing techniques I'm trying out. I play drums in a band called Distributor(check my...

thats why god created ctrl+f @VeneMorte Yeah there are loads and loads of things that make a mix sound professional. Mixing other peoples tracks is usually a great way to teach your ear what is actually good and whats not. My problem a lot of the time is knowing when a raw input track...

I mix pretty much everything in protools, I use Cubase sx to track any midi instruments cause Protools midi editing is absolutely terrible. I'm intrigued as to how good logic is for mixing, I've never even touched it as all the machines I use for mixing/editing/tracking are windows based. Are...

I pretty much do the same thing except I've never run a separate overdrive channel, I usually just drive the ext-Kick channel and then compress it. One thing I like to do with real bass drum tracks if you are limited to just one microphone is duplicate the bass drum track and stick a low...

This thread is gold!

Hi Passini, I'm just downloading your tracks now, I'm gonna stick the midi into Superior Drummer 2 so that should be grand. I'll probably have a mix done for you by tomorrow night. Powell
