Gr$$nbacks. electronic/metal/tech/groove. metal foundry, line6

[Cyanide_Anima]

sup sup! finished a new song, kinda different from the usual stuffs i write. it was fun tho! i think its my best mix evar! (so far!). guitars are line6 big bottom and v30 cab sim. drums are the metal foundry, but i replaced the snare and most of the processing is done in logic. any comments critiques on the song/mix welcome!

DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE! This is definitely your best mix - sounds really good. Snare is a bit squished though, although I am sick at the moment and can't hear for shit! SO... that may be me. But, musically, this is the shit man!

Dude -I never heard the big bottom model sound that good. Really good job man! What is your chain on the rythym guitars?

 

[Dylan S]

Sounds good man.

In those really heavy parts, it sounds like you might want to open the snare a tad.

Maybe also make the bass a little less boomy, or lower it slightly. Either way, just an idea...

Sounds good. Good composition too.

how do u get such a huge bass sound?
u posted a meshuggah type track a while ago and the bass was ridiculously huge?
mind sharing your signal chain, anything on how u tracked it and maybe some setting tips for a similar sound?

thanks emdprodukt! cool song! they both have that fear factory/mnemic vibe don't they? rofl.

thanks a lot ChrisP! the chain is my hellraiser 7 > podx3live > onyx 400f > macbook > logic. i used some light eq, usual cropping at 60hz and 10k. wide shallow dip around 4.5k, about -1.5db. and ozone's exiter exiting the midrange and highs on the tape setting just .3 boost.

thanks dylans! i agree with you, i still don't quite have the snare down. and the bass is kinda boomy, but i kinda like it for now, that'll probably change though soon haha.

thanks mang! the bass is pretty simple, just a crappy gio ibby 4 string i borrowed from a friend and tuned down to Bb, rofl. its DI into the Onyx, and then i use logic's bass sim, the warm setting with plenty of lows and little mids or highs. comp'd to hell and back, and then eq'd slightly.
