first mix (charlez song)

[woeisbeppe]

Here's my first mix...Hope to get some feedback and tips 'coz I've been in production for just 1-2 months...

In particulary, I need to fix the guitars, cause I really don't like them, but I don't know how to fix them!

Drums are temporary, I have not touched the bass yet.

For guitars, I used TSE 808-Lecto-LeCab

Sounds like you double tracked the guitars but put some weird stereo plugin on them which makes them go mono panned center with a lot of phasing. Just make sure they are panned L and R and it would sound a lot better!

I think you should ease a bit on the master bus compression, it is pumping the mix quite a lot, esp. the snare. Try compressing the individual elements more separately instead.

I have a problem with panning in FL studio, cause the more I pan to the right, the more the volume goes down. It's just weird, it happens only in this track, so I had to center the 2 guitars.

fixed, try to listen it now the link is the same.

what can make guitars sound cleaner?

Much better!

I would just focus on the drums and bass now, you can barely hear the bass.

Drums are a bit robotic, try humanizing them by varying the velocities. Add more room mic as well, they are a bit too bright in my opinion.
