    Melodic metal mix for my band MindMirror

    Hi guys! I did the recording and mixing for the new EP of my band MindMirror. The goal was to get that nice "commercial" sound but to keep it still heavy enough for this music style. Also wanted to stay away from a scooped overall sound. We lowered our guitar and bass tunings by a whole step...

    Opinions needed for a rock/metal mix

    Hi guys! I just recorded and mixed some Finnish rock/metal together with mr. Mika Autio. We tried to create something that is pretty hard to describe but let´s just say that we were going for a modern metal sound combined with some (not-so-clean) vintage rock vibes. Something kinda clean but...

    Great Hardcore Band, not quite happy with the mix (real drums, 5150, Orange)

    This is great! Really angry shit with a fat sound. I actually liked the first version best. It was somehow more aggressive than the second and third mixes. Could also be that I´m only able to listen with headphones for now... I´d try some mid-channel EQ (I use DMG Equality) for the guitars...

    AnotherMetalmix... Need help with mastering!

    I´m not specialised in mastering but here´s something I would try: -Sweep for resonating frequencies with narrow Q. I think in this mix there are some resonances in the lower mids and. I bet cutting at the right frequencies will give the final master some power and air. -Use a couple instances...

    Melodic metal mix: (MindMirror - Fifteen Years). Any opinions?

    Thanks for really good pointers, Josh! I´ve been some having problems with vocal reverb for our singer...I´ve tried dozens of different verbs but none of them seem to fit with voice well enough. After endless tries I´ve ended up using mostly delays and just a tiny bit of reverb for his voice...

    Melodic metal mix: (MindMirror - Fifteen Years). Any opinions?

    Nice to hear that you like it, Geo. Sadly, the guitar player sold that Nuno...he plays a custom Mayones guitar now :D But also any criticism/suggestions about the mix would be greatly appreciated :)

    Melodic metal mix: (MindMirror - Fifteen Years). Any opinions?

    Hey guys! Here´s my latest production for my own band MindMirror. I´m curious to hear any opinions about this mix. I recorded this in a semi-pro studio and mixed it home. Mastering was left for mr. Svante Forsbäck (Chartmakers Mastering). I´m quite statisfied with the overall sound of the...
