If I'm not mistaken the Axe-Fx has a SAG control that can make the sound less tight and more "tubey" or "spongy". I might be thinking of the Axe-Fx II but give it a look on the wiki or the manual. :-)

Basically do you keep the same mastering chain for the whole album or is each song catered to differently? I just wanted too know if each song on an album has a different sound or they all stay pretty consistent in terms of feel and sound. If possible can someone point me to an album where...

No problem, who's the band? I'm guessing they are UK based?

Sick song man. One thing I can complain about is I feel this disconnect from the guitars mainly the left channel tone sounds weird to me. I was listening to this earlier today maybe it can help comparing your mixes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iu_lpvuczRQ&feature=fvwrel and even...

Hahah no just popped in my head while I was listening to your track. If you don't mind me asking what did you use for the guitar tone?

Sounds good man. I pictured this in my head when I was listening.hahah.CYBERDJENT lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcfbrRsgYcs&feature=related

Do Periphery's mixes sound like the shizz as well. What was wrong with them?

HOLY CRAP!!!! Sounds so pissed off. Hahaha. 0:00-0:24- In my opinion the guitars could have more bite to them like just a bit more treble 1:52- I hear this riff and think of huge hair windmills and I wish it repeated twice again for a smoother transition into the "two step part" 1:58- That...

@hurdy Thanks man for clarifying So that also works for reamping i assume

So I have to get my head wrapped around this, DI tracks can and should be recorded at any level as long as the peaks are not going into the red? Anything using a mic whether it be vocals drums or a guitar cab follows -18db recording as well as vst synths, drums and amps?

I know hardcore isn't keen on clean mixes, but I hear some clipping going on with the guitars like crackles and pops, very low in volume but still there. As for the monotone thing going on on guess to why you did this would be to make his vocals more intelligible but in order to do that he needs...

Yeah the music is great but I can't believe people try to pass off mixes like this at around 25-28 seconds there's this huge pop and more pops and crackles throughout the song.

I'm listening to different artists and listening to their mixes to hear what I like and don't like and I've been following these guys for a while and I just feel bad. what do you guys think?

You got any multiband compression going on? Any ways I recently started watching ahjteam's videos and this may help you I know it helped me understand how to tame those frequency's. As he says you listen with your ears not your eyes. Find the sweet spot for each instrument. Oh and I forgot to...

Digging the tune and I don't who I can really compare this to. Maybe whoever recorded Sworn In's ep specifically "The Deviant" http://www.facebook.com/swornin/app_178091127385 I think it was this guy http://www.facebook.com/jtwrecording/app_178091127385. Thing is you have a lot of frequencies...
