A new deathcore song mix

[Nikolas Quemtri]

This is my mix of the song, composed and recorded by aix and rapucore here on UM.

I've also added few production things. Guitars are reamped through KPA (Mesa profile), the bass is totally artificial.

Any feedback is appreciated.

SOunds good, but the kick and the snare is not "in your face"

 

[Nikolas Quemtri]

Thank you for the feedback!
Actually, this is the aspect I'm currently working against: to make the mix sound more balanced in terms of a rhythm section (drums, bass and guitars). There was a problem of a "drum solo" in my earlier mixes.

=) no worries dude, is a really good mix,

 

[Lupus1984]

Sounds sick!!!

 

[Nuno Filipe]

sounds good and the snare can come up a bit

 

[Nikolas Quemtri]

Thanks guys, I appreciate it!

The mix is already pretty good compared to most of the stuff I usually comment on, but making the snare louder (and also the bass come to think of it) will bring the mix to the next level.

I just don't like the EQ on the vocals. Everything else is perfect. For the vocals I'd use heavy bass rider and some sort of exciter with moderate settings and a tad of more reverb and that's it.

This is a pretty solid mix, although I do feel the low end is kind of missing at the expense of heavy compression and/or limiting.

 

[Nikolas Quemtri]

Thank you, guys!
I've listened to the mix with the fresh ears and realized that I agree regarding the snare should be louder by its direct mic.
indecizo, the vox are pretty constantly sibilant in the original. Maybe, I should work on that aspect more as well.
DanLights, do you mean the dynamics in the low end?

No, I mean like how unless highpassed in the detection section, the first thing to trigger compression is the low end if it's overpowering the mix, so it's inevitable that with compression comes a loss of low end. It's just an assumption of mine cause the mix does sound pretty squashed, and that's quite common.
