I did a quick hard rockish demo for a synth performance competition and could use some feedback on the mix and the tones (whole song kicks in at 0:31). I was kind of aiming for a sound similar to this: Any ideas on how to get a little closer to that sound with amp simulation? I...

I feel like the vocals could come up a tiny bit, but that's about it. Sounds good and I really like that bass tone.

So I guess today is Waves Plugin Day. Kind of reminds me of "Love Day" in that it's some made up corporate holiday used to sell stuff. Luckily, they do have some pretty decent deals going on: http://www.waves.com/specials They are also having a giveaway for a chance to win a Waves...

Thanks for posting the multitracks to your awesome song! Definitely had a lot of fun mixing it.

Normally $250 for the non-bundled version of this plug-in. I've been wanting this plug-in for a while, as I have demoed it in the past and really liked it, so I thought I'd let other people know about this great deal! Linear Phase Multiband Compressor...

Hahaha no problem guys! By the way this plug-in is only free until July 22nd, 2015, so make sure you get it while you still can! Also, here are some sound examples of what it sounds like, for anyone that's curious...

This was a fun song to work on! Thanks for sharing it with us!

Song has a cool vibe. The cymbals and hats sound very mono, try panning them, as it will help to open up both the drums and the mix. Cymbals and hats could also benefit from a little more top end. The guitars sound a little boxy. Try removing some of the low mids to see if that cleans them...

I also got this issue resolved. Clean uninstall of Pro Tools 10 (drivers, preferences, databases, etc.), avid instruments, ilok software, and profire 2626 drivers. Shut down both the computer and the interface and then disconnect the interface. Re-installed the ilok software, Pro Tools 10...

Yep. The 64-bit version. Have you tried a system restore? I'd try it myself, but I don't have any restore points that are set earlier than yesterday, due to all the uninstalling and reinstalling of software.

This sounds like the exact same issue that I'm having. Profire 2626 worked fine until Saturday, then all of the sudden Pro Tools 10 doesn't have it listed as a playback engine. Still works fine in both Ableton Live and Pro Tools 11, so I know it's not the interface or the firewire connection...

I thought this sounded familiar! Didn't even realize you guys had a new EP out yet. Going to have to pick that up. By the way: loved Reshape Reason!

Nicely done! Thanks for sharing those details. Also, what's the name of this band?

The song needs a little low end loving. A stronger and more present bass will help fill out the low end and help give the song some of the energy that it seems to be lacking. The strings sound very thin, dry, and too compressed, so when they kick in they sound a little out of place. Also the...
