How's this mix / master? (Metalcore, breakdowns)

[tripslipfall]

I know a lot of you are going to hate the style / song, so just listen to the mix, and the production instead. Tell me if anything stands out that should be fixed, or if it sounds good! Thank you

Digging the guitar tone but the drums sound poorly programmed. What are using for guitars?

 

[tripslipfall]

Drums will change soon.

Guitar chain:
TSS > TSE x30 > Catharsis 1on-preshigh (impulse) > EQ (Hi pass @ 90hz, 4db boost at 5000hz)

something isnt sitting right in the mix. maybe its just me?

 

[tripslipfall]

Find out what it is!

 

[AeternusEternus]

damn. you just gonna take that, sicroker?

 

[XxSicRokerxX]

lol? plain and simple, something isnt sitting right, either the guitars are too loud, or the drums have a much different texture (unnatural) compared to the guitar thats causing it to sound a bit awkward. Maybe try lowering the guitars down 1.5 DB or use some type of COMP to glue the guitars+drums. But like i said it might just be me.

 

[tripslipfall]

Okay! I'll experiment. Thank you.

The guitars sounds pretty nice but the drums need some work, try to low the overheads on the drums and ´make more bass at the kick and less punch, make the high freq lower...
Hope it helps

Jesus christ this is brutal. lol, i dig it man keep it up!

 

[Monsterbash333]

the song it cool man.

my thoughts on the drums

-Everything has to much attack and no low end following it ( so lower the over heads a tad, and boost the low end on the snare and kick a little)

the snare is what needs more of the low end i think it just sound like a little tic.

and
I understand that you want that metal , cicky kick but when you add a tad more low end to the kick drum it will really stand out in the double bass parts.

over all <\m/
