Guitars are all JSX crunch channel, drums are SD2.0, and bass (believe it or not!) is pitch shifted guitar through TSS and Bass Preamp by ronaldpassion.

Pardon the bits of slop here and there, I'm retracking the guitars today.

50 views and no posts? Is it seriously that bad?

Sorry, its cool but i think its kind of pointless to put up something so rough that your going to change soon anyway. Why not put up the finished/ semi finished product that at least have your final tracking of the instrument in them? Thats just my take on it. I would recommend trying some other drum sounds too and working with SD2's samples to get a punchier sound because right now they sound stock and even without you saying you were using SD2, anyone could have spotted it a mile off. Post the new stuff though when you've finished tracking though, I would like to hear a polished mix of a peavey thats not the 5150 or 6505.

I totally agree with you. However, this is my best mix with the JSX so far. I've only had the amp a few months now and I've been working on trying to get it to sit in a mix comfortably without being too blankety sounding.

Updated, re-tracked all guitars, tinkered with SD2 some, and retracked bass.

Nice guitar tones man,but the drums need work.Which library are you using?

And why is the guitar volume varying?

Cheers!

Library = Avatar.

Guitar volume is varying because of the compression on the master bus.


Will update the mix again in a few, I need to bring the rhythm guitars up a bit and I'm going to work on the drums some. Thinking I'll blend the snare with something else.

Updated again. Here's a version (albeit with a bit of clipping) that is only guitars. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8290798/chug! guitars only.mp3

You might wanna retrack the bass with an actual bass. I don't hear any of the bass line on my monitors

Thanks. I updated the mix again, brought the kick and bass up a bit.

Think you are hitting something too hard. It's all crispy and crackly. The guitar volume going up and down is still a little weird.

The guitar only mix is clipping. The full mix is not. Which did you listen to?
