Chris Brown Djent Remix (Youtube)

[foundations]

this was a bitch to mix.. the quality on the youtube version isnt the best so it does sound a little glitchy in some parts.. which i think was down to the video editor.. if that gets on your nerves then there is a download link to an mp3 version in the video description

i am asking for opinions on the mix not the playing.. i do understand that my left hand is prety much redundant for this cover, im sure the youtube community will remind me of this endlessely but hopefuly you guys are different!

 

[foundations]

any1 have any real worth while opinions on the mix or is this all the useful information that this site is about to give out?

 

[Customisbetter]

Cool tone and decent vid production.

Yeah that's pretty much all your gonna get, if at all. It's sad honestly. Unless these guys love sucking your dick then you can't expect nothing but a shit load of views and very few comments. If you want REAL advice when it comes to mixing head over to Home Recording Forum's "bash this" section. Plenty of top engineers willing to critique your mixes. And everyone is really respectful and knowledgeable. Plus the guy that runs it, Brandon Drury, is nothing short of a genius considering he wrote the Killer Home Recording series.

Not sure if this helps but you could probably dig up some tones that may be useable on the line6 customtone link...

And here's a bass tone I pulled a ways back from Dandelium's thread/song. Haven't used it so I can't remember right off how it sounds:

[foundations]

will try out that bass tone now. would be cool if someone made a tutrial or something .. iv done one for my guitar tone

 

[foundations]

for bass does anyone think the bass expansion for pod farm woul dbe worth me getting?

 

[Beneath_the_Bliss]

try out the 'rock classic' bass amp in Pod Farm, with a Bass Overdrive before it. not sure if it's in a expansion pack, i've only got the metal one

In another thread from you, foundations, I posted a little blurb about grindy bass tones. For a modern, grindy tone, you don't need a whole lot to get there, but the key is to get a good tone out of your bass before you start doing anything to it. An example of a recent bass tone I made only pod farm and the metal shop expansion is here: http://bit.ly/yP2Ky4 not even close to the best bass tone on earth, but maybe something like this is what you're looking for.

cheers for the help man.. i cant realy hear a lot of bass in that song you linked though.... im so lost trying to sort out my bass tone :/

 

[oroinvictus]

Would a solo'd tone/some pictures of my setup help at all? I'm not trying to say I have an end-all bass tone setup but if you're lost it could give you some ideas.

 

[foundations]

please ^_^ haha

 

[oroinvictus]

EDIT: here's some info on my bass tone, as requested.

Here's my whole tone from the previous mix I posted: http://bit.ly/AdpiCM Now, this is made up of 3 separate tracks - the DI itself (http://bit.ly/xCuUpP), a track running a sansamp pedal (http://bit.ly/AsBJTk) (http://i.imgur.com/pUzf6.jpg), for low-end punch and a track running a 5150 (http://bit.ly/wKzAQk), (http://i.imgur.com/FiOVy.jpg) for mids and high-end. The DI is a good example of what a good bass DI should sound like, nice and clanky, at least for the clanky sort of bass tone.

 

[foundations]

thanks a lot!

 

[oroinvictus]

No problem, hope you can get something useful out of that.

Nope, it's real Cognitive Atrophy. The raw tracks are from PremierProductions as s/he recorded them.
