Death/Core Mix AD and Battery Content

brutus and the pontiacs

Yup, good job. That's them.

that preset link works when i "right click" and save as a target, but it crashes my AD when i load it up. can you re-upload it to somewhere else? megaupload perhaps?

The preset is gone, so don't try. Sorry. All it is, is the ludwig set slightly modified. Blended with snare and kick samples.

Sounds pretty fucking sick! I think the kick could use a little more low-mids though. It wouldn't hurt to ease off of the highs on that splash or hat--whatever it is, it's kinda hissy. When it goes fast, it sounds sequenced. I think you need some more variation in velocity for those parts. The drums sound a little over-compressed in general, I can hear those little surges when a lot is going on. There's not enough body to the drums, everything else seems to overpower them to some extent. The kick is especially hurting here. Maybe it just needs to be turned up a little, but it sounds like it doesn't have enough bottom and transient. I think I'm just being picky though.

That guitar tone is crazy though, it's fucking brutal. I envy that sound so much. I love that you actually use a good amount of mids, it doesn't sound scooped at all to me. Scooped sounds are overrated and overused anyway. The mids get the guitar close enough to your face to rip it off while the highs melt your eyeballs and the lows rattle your brain out! Without the mids bringing the guitar close to your face, the bass and the highs can't do that stuff and the guitar remain distant in the mix... but maybe I'm getting carried away a bit

It's a pretty good mix overall. I think the drums just need a little work. Everything else is really good. This track makes me wanna work on my mixes.

Thanks man, Im flattered. Your Hospice work is nothing to sneeze at either! I got hit up by the drummer of I Wrestled a Bear Once "he lives in oklahoma" to do their tracking for their debut cd on century media, however I doubt that will happen. Once I told him how I do my drums.. hahaha.. just signed artest want the "full studio" experience. It would be killer to work with them though.

Armstrong is great, however I don't think he is in the "metal scene" as we are, which give us an edge on this type of music. I'm hitting 32 and been in different death metal bands for half that long. It goes to say, dont put me doing country because I royally fuck that up

Anyway keep up the good work we need a good recording / production scene around here!
