Also, for anyone interested check out "Reflux" who was a band out of NoVA/DC area. Ash (founder of Sumerian Records) and Tosin was the vocalist and the guitarist, respectively. on a sidenote, Evan Brewer was also their bassist before joining Animosity. Sorry, couldn't help but Reminisce the...

try hard-panning the di track to either left or right. I came across the same issue myself a while back and that seemed to work for me...

Very similar to Vale of Pnath from Colorado... Awesome mix btw.. I personally dig the fat-low snare myself...

Should I keep a lookout for a collaboration or a split from these 2 guys next year?

Generally speaking, how do you guys distinguish between "fizz"es from "sizzle"s from various amps? I know there are a lot of factors ranging from cabinets, to room, to mic placements. And to a certain point, it might even be relative to the engineer's ears, but is there some sort of an outline...

check out Veil of Maya (Sumerian records), and Reflux (now broken up, whos vocalist founded the aforementioned label and the bass player plays for Animosity?)... anyways, I've seen both of their guitarists and boy, do they do a great job implementing stereo setups and phrase samplers on stage...

How does Devin Townsend do it in Strapping Young Lad? It seems like he side chains a compressor of some sort for the subdrops with the rest of the mix... so that everything squashes out when the subdrop hits ? :erk:

wow... I broke my first DAW laptop (sony vaio) when it fell off my desk onto an "oriental" rug that I bought from IKEA... so I sold the rug on ebay to offset the cost of my new laptop... and as a matter of fact, I too have a 15.4" targus laptop bag with lots o' padding! :)

WooooooHoooo I finally get to contribute something to this community... lol Its recommended for any processor-exhausting multimedia applications to run the program application from the primary hdd, and read/write data from/onto a secondary hdd. If the secondary hdd is housed internally...
