Ok thanks for the help man, should probably get myself some good monitors aswell might allow me to hear the problems better haha. I'll track something new soon and see if it sorts out my problems (Y)

Yeah thats the real problem, everything i record sounds like a pre-pro demo, its gettin kinda frustrating but nevermind. I'll have a go when i've restrung my guitar and bass and see if that improves anything. Thanks for the tips

Oh right thanks, so you think that maybe a new set of strings would do me good? I'm not sure when they were last changed but its a floyd rose-esque bridge making it a bitch to change em but i'll give it a go. What about the rest of the mix as a whole? regarding the drums and overall levels...

Just recorded a new song for some mixing practise but it just doesnt sound like... like any of you guys on this forum? haha I just cant get it sounding proffesional enough but im not sure where im going wrong. There are no vocals as of yet...

Just mixed my bands new song just wondered what people thought of the production as a whole - where i've gone wrong, what needs changing etc. Bash all you want im just looking to see what i need to improve on and what i need to listen out for in future mixes...

Yeah i will definitely try and get hold of the stems when i can get the project up, but im wondering if anyone at all can pinpoint the problem i'm facing with the mix as a whole. Cos no one i've asked can seem to put their finger on whats wrong with the mix; it's quite frustrating really haha...

Vocals were done with an SM58, obviously not ideal but it's all i have at the minute. If i remember rightly i compressed the vocals with a quite a high ratio 5:1-8:1, eq'd them and added some reverb. The kick lays dead in the centre with the bass guitar, with overheads hard left and right...

I've been using PodFarm for the guitars and bass and addictive drums but i just cant seem to get a song as high quality as 90% of this forums users do. Im a little bit stumped to be honest, although i do think the snare and kick drum sound a bit weak. Can anyone enlighten me to why i'm so...
