What do you guys think of this?

Does anyone think it is a little dark or is it just me? I think it sounds fine actually but in my car and room it sounds dark but with headphones it's fine. Also don't comment on the solo, I know it's too loud haha.

I think it doesn't sound dark. And it's more djent than deathcore

 

[kylendm]

You really think so? I think it's pretty much deathcore.

You guys sure? Anyone else?

the guitar tone resembles a "djent" tone. The guitars sound a little thin to me...other than that, sounds cool!

 

[kylendm]

Yeah I guess the tone is a little djenty. What could I do to beef up the guitars? Any ideas I think they sound pretty good but I'm willing to try any advice.

Please share bass chains

Well to be honest, it's all about what u want it to sound like. I'm not saying it sounds bad, just saying it sounds like a DJent tone. What are u using for guitars? What amp and what impulses? Try a different impulse or impulse(s)

Please share bass chains

Bass chain is Trilian and Catharsis's Zombass 1 tones mixed together and going intro three seperate bass buses: DI, Grit, Distortion. DI just gets an impulse, big mid range cut and a little compression. Grit has a lot of lows cut and uses TSE BOD and an impulse. Distortion get a lot of lows cut as well but also has a lo-pass around 4k followed by another impulse. All those buses get send to one big bass compression bus that has very minimal eq cuts, compression, and a limiter.

Yeah I'm kinda digging the guitar tone to be honest, maybe it's just me. The guitars are TSE 808, TSEX30, and an impulse I made.

 

[Flow Of Time]

Very cool song!
Imo guitars could be a tad brighter, I'd also lower the snare a bit

 

[oroinvictus]

Drums lack definition and sound very stock. Guitars sound impulse-driven and unnatural, somehow.

 

[kylendm]

Any advice on the drums? I think that's where I'm lacking the most in all my mixes. The cymbals are Superior while the snare is SSD and kick is Deathkick samples with SSD kicks. I think I might make a thread in more detail on how I do my drums and how I should be doing them haha.
