Big rock cover from "Evacuate the dancefloor" (Slate Virtual Tape Machine content)

[pifos_2]

Hey guys,

Here is a cover I produced with the band Rouge United (http://www.facebook.com/RougeUnited) from Holland.
We made a funny video for it that also shows off my serious dancing skills.

I hope you like it!

The technical audio nerd details :
Was mixed completely in the box in Pro Tools 10 with Slate VTM and McDSP AC1 on all tracks. Drums are SD2.0 with extra kick/snare samples.
Vocals are an ADK Vienna into my UA LA610.
Guitars are the Axe-FX going line in into the LA610.
Bass is just a DI and the sansamp plugin but is also doubled with a synth saw bass to give that dance edge to it.
Conversion/interface is a RME Fireface UC.
Reverbs are the UAD EMTs.
EQ used are the UAD pultec and McDSP filterbank.
Compressors are mostly UAD 1176s and LA2As.

Filterbank sounds amazing for "just a digital EQ". The mix missed a lot of high end until the very end. I just pulled a high shelf (3.5db!) with the E606 on the master et voila! Incredible. Sounds super smooth.

The master was funny : UAD SSL comp->UAD pultec->McDSP FB->Slate VTM->Tracks Classic Clipper->Sonnox Inflator->Sonnox Limiter

Never had some much inserts on the master

With the "renewed" forum rules, shouldn't this be in Rate my mix?

Anyway, sounds nice on headphones. Doesn't seem to lack any high-end. Missing some lows, but that could be my headphones.

it's not a rate my mix, because it's already released. i just want to share it.
it's more a "check this thing i did".

well i thought so.
