[Erik Monsonis]

Hey guys!

Here's a new song i've been working on for some weeks, I'm going to need some advice as I'm not 100% happy with this mix.

Here's a 320kb/s Mp3:

Drums are S2.0 TMF + custom kick sample + Snare15/Snare18 combo.
Bass is my Harley Benton HBB500 with year old+ strings .
Guitars are Ibanez SA160QM with EMG85, year old+ elixir 0.12-0.68 strings, Drop A tuning. Processed with TSE 808 > Lecto > Lecab2 > greg's free impulse > LP-HP
Keys are Symphobia.

Cheers!

I really enjoyed the guitar tone. thanks for sharing!

 

[superdgs]

guitars are awesome, drums maybe need more punch?
i cant hear the bass btw

 

[storming heaven]

Snare needs more reverb imo. Other than that it sounds cool.

 

[Triscore]

I like the bass+guitar combination Eric!! similar to in flames

I don´t like the drums overall, but is only my taste, Looks very well!! good work man

Tris.

Cool song and guitars as usual, but the snare is REALLY treble heavy, makes it artificial sounding. A lot of treble, also compared to your other mixes...reminds me of the SSD sample of the Black Snare
When I read "full song" I hoped it would be allready with Javi :/

 

[texisthebest]

It´s sounds really Epic!
Nice guitar tone

 

[jipchen]

Love the song and the guitars, but the snare bugs the shit out of me. Sounds like you hit an empty pudding package
Kick is awesome. The riff at 0:26 makes me go

 

[diafebus]

I think it sound so gay erik…
I'm sorry jajajaja

It sounds great but for my taste there is to much treblish abuse there, lot's of ultra high frequencies. It stress me a little bit.

 

[JayB]

I agree , it sounds like In Flames. Great Mix !

 

[crillemannen]

Great guitars, Snare sounds a bit strange, i dont like it at all. It could really use more body. But great work overall

 

[Plankis]

Cool song, quite punchy. I'm digging that bleedish riff.

jajajaja

What does this mean? I'm reading it as yesyesyesyes.

 

[zvish]

no idea how to get guitars with no fizz at all like you sounds amazing, snare needs 120-200hz for me

 

[lolzgreg]

Digging the guitars. I'd do a tiny boost at around 400hz for a little more width.

Bass is sitting nicely.

Change the snare, get one of the close room mics in foundry, turn all the drum bleed off, leaving only the cymbals, and crank that sucker up to get some more body in those cymbals.

It's going to be great, cause it's already very good.

 

[Erik Monsonis]

Thanks for the awesome advice guys!!
I will definitely work on the snare drum now

 

[Backe]

that guitar tone is fucking tight and yet not undergained, creds!

 

[lolzgreg]

Cool song, quite punchy. I'm digging that bleedish riff.


What does this mean? I'm reading it as yesyesyesyes.

jajajajaja is basically "Hispanic laughter", since "j" is pronounced like an "h" in the context of the joke

 

[Pedro Teixeira]

Awesome tune! Guitars sound monstruous!! I think the snare feels a bit odd as well, but overall... GREAT work!!

 

[FIXXXER]

i think the complete mix needs some more bass,
can't really hear the bass and the bassdrum is too clicky.
guitars sound awesome, fucking tight playing also, WOW!

i am used to hear much more melodic stuff from you,
kinda miss this here, however it's a good track!

cheers

Incredible sounding and songwriting as usual The guitar tone is awesome dude.

If you don't mind, ¿How many guitar tracks are recorded(¿quad/double track?) and how are they panned? Sounds so fat.

Congratulations
