Bump.

Mix sounds pretty good. I would work more on the kick sound but that is perhaps subjective territory. The whole mix sounds a little too "dark" in my opinion. Otherwise good job!

Thanks a lot for sharing! Great learning experience. First time mixing vocals. My take: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dfbjvt87s1xs0jc/SIC%20%28GhostshipRecordings%20Cover%29%20mix.mp3?dl=0

Lacks a little bottom end? The drums definitely need work in terms or performance. If you want them to sound like a really tight drummer, look into velocities and slightly bumping the hits out of place (a tiny bit) in fast parts to give it a more human feel. In cubase there is a function for...

Sounds pretty good! I like the guitar tone and especially the lead tone. It sounds distant and slightly ambient. Reminds me of Fallujah a little bit. I think the snare and toms might need a bit more work but that's probably a subjective matter. ;)

There is an older thread which I created for this song, but now I will be doing everything myself including mastering. I've improved on it quite a bit since then. My composition. Recorded everything myself. Drums are SD2 with metal machine expansion. Crunchlab pickup on an RGD2127 and ENGL...

So, I went through my mix and worked on the points you suggested. I definitely see an improvement. I worked a lot on the bass to give it more definition and less "boomyness". I also removed some high frequencies from the guitars and cymbals...

Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment. I appreciate your input. In terms of peaking, you are right. On my MIX group channel I used a limiter and I guess its not favorable for the studio I will send it to as they won't have any headroom. For the bass, I have two tracks going...

Dear UMF users, This is my first post although I have been lurking on this site for a while now. I have learned a great deal from this forum and now I finally have something to show for it. This is a song I have written/recorded. I will eventually send it to a studio where vocals will be...
