Deathcore Song, what do you think of the mix?

[Sam Bottner]

This song was written by El Boyo from the UG forums in guitar pro, I'm just recording it for him because it's awesome. Here's a link to his profile: http://profile.ultimate-guitar.com/El+Boyo/, it's called Beneath the Ocean if you want to hear the original.

I recorded guitars and bass and the drums are addictive drums (which were given to me by http://profile.ultimate-guitar.com/logan91/ <--that guy )
Guitars are Revalver and some EQ, hp at 150hz, lp at 8khz, and some minor cuts and boosts as needed, and also some light compression to even it out. Bass was also Revalver, compressed a ton.

Anyway, here it is. Tell me what you think.

BTW the bass may be too loud in the mix, my ipod hasn't been working so I can't check the mix anywhere else. PLEASE let me know if the bass is overpowering.

Thanks.

Overheads are gross, snare is too loud or too quiet most of the time.
Use automation.

for the kick; less click, more 'fleshy'.

You interested in posting DI's and Midi?

 

[Seth Munson]

not gunna lie, I would be down for some DIs and Midi

 

[premx]

upload it now

 

[Sam Bottner]

Drums weren't me. I agree for the most part about the snare and kick, but I like the overheads. I'll try to upload the DI's, although last time I tried, it didn't work, but we'll see.

 

[Seth Munson]

If you upload DIs you should also include a blank midi track so we know where the tempo changes are and what the tempo is

 

[Sam Bottner]

tempo is 120 the whole time

Do you have a midi file for the drums? Try to get one if you can. haha.

Greatly appreciated

If I can figure out how... I kind of figured other people knew how to do it hahaha I'll try

 

[Seth Munson]

I dont have guitar pro and I dont really feel like buying a program just to export midi from it

 

[Sam Bottner]
