Hi guys, second mix to post on this site.
https://files.getdropbox.com/u/1261919/Song06 TestB.mp3
NEW version of band's approval (no kick samples this time): https://files.getdropbox.com/u/1261919/06 - Track 06.mp3
I just recently recorded this band on Sunday and have been mixing off and on all week (about 9 songs, roughly 20-25 mins of material).
Their style is predominantly grindcore with a lot of hardcore punk and death metal influences, even some technical moments.
Anyone care to share their opinions on this mix of one of the songs?
It's unmastered, but I mixed through Waves RChannel Compressor and some Linear EQ. Had the L1 + Ultramaximizer turned on briefly to show them how it would sound at the finished level of loudness, but of course I bounced this mix with the L1 bypassed.
Guitars are double mic'd with two 57's and double tracked, so four tracks of guitar. 100L/70L and 100 R/70R. Not sure what guitar he played, but it was through a Mesa Triple Rec head and a Sonic cab (not sure about the model).
Bass is one d.i. and one mic'd with ATM25 playing through a Behringer 180W combo.
Drums are all natural except there's two instances of Drumagog blended into the kick. One sample about 20% and the other sample is the Suffocation kick blended 50%.
Vocals tracked with SM58 and AT4060. One take was recorded with both, but two tracks of AT4060 going hard left/right for a room vocal sound. He also did an overdub/second take of vocals with just the SM58. Four tracks of vocals total.
