finished mix (5150+Recto)

[Behind]

I'd like to comment something that maybe is intended: there's some strange panning to the right in the vox between min 2:26 and 2:36. It feels too much weight in the right at that point.

I'm not a professional and maybe I'm wrong but it just sounded weird to me. The mix sounds very balanced anyway. I dig the drums specially, guitar tone is also

 

[J.DavisNJ]

I love it man. Your tones are perfect right now in my opinion. Drums sound really nice too.

thanks dudes!


yup, that panning was intended and is a reoccuring thing on the CD

 

[Emdprodukt]

love the guitarsound lasse! great work!

 

[Nebulous]

Please tell me that those guitars are not another one of your "HP/LP and that's it" jobs......

Very nice mix dude.

Lasse, I don't know whether to hate you or like you. (joking)

 

[Lasse Lammert]

nah, it's the v30 that pretty much record themselves (in combination with a 57)

 

[Jaymz]

Damn I gotta get myself one of those Mesa cabs! Great tones, really like the beefy kick too! Good job

 

[Erkan]

Yea, it's all about tossing the mic from a distance and hit record. As long as the mic lands and still stands up, the sound is automatically great! Haha... yeaaa..

On a more serious note, it sounds great, I like the production. Not too "super polished modern ultra production" but still enough so that it is in the "upper league".

I know you don't want us commenting any member of the band but I hate the singer's voice :S Just had to say it man, sorry That part with the "IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII, thought I was the leader... IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII bla bla bla bla, IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII", those IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIs could really need a scream or some shit, it just sounds retarded alone

Edit: And yes, I'm aware it's too late to change now. Still fun to whine/rant!

 

[Lasse Lammert]

haha, np....you can have your opinion

thanks for the compliment, it was exactly what I was going for.. modern yet organic.

 

[xturbox]

damn, your vox reminded me Frexon Zoo from Raleigh, NC, but a bit more clear sound over all.

 

[lolzgreg]

Can you take a picture or two of the room you track drums in?

-Greg

 

[GuitarHack]

Great sound as usual.

A pic of your general mic placement would be nice? Thanks.

 

[Lasse Lammert]

this is my drumbooth.

it's not totally dead but has a very short but very even RT60
I don't have good pictures of the live room, but it's got a wood floor and lots of angles etc.
for metal I'm usually using the booth only but I am taking the samples in the live room, that way I sometimes combine the real drums with samples of the room.

I'll try to make some pics of the mic placement, but I think it'll be difficult to see much because I still have the grill-cloth on the cab (have tried it before)

 

[poidaobi]

nah, it's the v30 that pretty much record themselves (in combination with a 57)

I find that with both the 5150 and Recto too. I just gotta work on playing better now.

 

[JMarz]

+1, but i also hate the vox (the singer himself, not the production)
