Almost finished with song, that do you think of the mix?

yea your on about the snare needs some work. I wish i could help you more but I'm still trying to get my snare up to par also :cry:
 
Sounds good man...the snare is probably more of a personal taste thing than a mix thing. Sounds alright to me.

My old friend had a metal snare that sounded similar, he switched to a birch snare and that "ploink" you mention was gone. So I guess, maybe try to mix this snare with a different type, but this snare still sounds pretty good.
