Guitars need a bit more presence. Bass isn't too shabby. Drums could use a bit of work EQ wise. Snare sounds supa weird. Overall, potential. Pod Farm on guitars? Sounds like it. Try a cut at 3k with a small q to get rid of that fuzz. Made my tones significantly better!

Thanks for replying! I'll have a mess around with it today and use your ideas. I think the lack of presence on guitars comes from the old strings. I neglected to change them as i was only borrowing it off a friend.

I need to find out how to route instruments out of kontakt because i hate the inbuilt eq's and stuff. I need to read up on drum compression also as i dont have a clue what i'm doing there.
