hows this sound? (podx3, dfh, djent)

[Cyanide_Anima]

been working on this mix for a while. two minute clip of a song im currently working on. im thinkin this is a good start for a template for an EP. kinda your basic Djent, meshuggah, tesseract, bulb, elements, kind of thing. with a little bit of "strings" and other crap too! lol. comments on how i can improve this are greatly appreciated!!

edit: i"ve "mastered" it as well (eep). too much squishy? lol

no good?
sorry. but also, i am looking for someone to do some vox for me! either over the net, or if you live in the seattle/everett (WA) area shoot me a msg!

Actually, I really like it! Personally, I'd like to hear the keys come up instead of being just barely audible. But everything sounds good to me.

I'd love to listen and help out but the link doesn't work for me. It opens WinAmp and tries to open html tags in the playlist... it looks crazy.

It did that with me too. Then I opened the link in a new tab and it worked.

How's the bass sound? This is only the third time I've had a real bass to record with. And I'm (still...) using those twenty-dollar Sony mdr's for everything. Tone tweaking, tracking, mixing, mastering (Lol!) etc.

What were your X3 settings for the guitar tone, did you do much to the guitars post production? I like them, and need help getting strated with my own tone on the X3

 

[Cyanide_Anima]

big bottom model with the TS for a boost and the v30 cab, 421 mic. i killed the lows below 62hz and rolled a little off the top too. emg 707 pickups. those really make the tone.
i updated the mix too. i got better headphones! Audio Technica ath m-40fs. pretty nice sounding.

 

[Horvat]

Really cool sound man, I like.
How the fuck did you get the sound quality on the guitars that nice? Is that all the Pod X3? I've been thinking about getting one of those for a while.

 

[hostin]

I really Like your guitar tone.
can you share it with us ?

Can you do some screens of your mixing ?

It's fackin good ! I really like the Kick drum

 

[Cyanide_Anima]

sure. Nuendo screenie:



my typical guitar sound is my schecter hellraiser c7 into my podx3 live. that runs off the usb sound card crapola. into nuendo. i do the typical sneap-like c4 setting, and the typical "cropping" of unwanted frequencies.

kick drum is ezdrummer DFH. i did some processing to the kick. eq'd out a little room for the bass (around 80hz, depeding on how you are tuned) and boost 50hz a little and thats it.

edit:

i forgot about that magneto. i toss that on the master buss. the only thing on the master buss, to simulate a little tape saturation (cheesy and gay, i know....)

 

[anestic]

God sound you have.. I realy like it... Can you tell more about the settings on the pod.. ex bass middle and that stuff ??
Do you have any eq on the master output ?
What stuff you use on the bass guitar.

 

[PostMortem1666]

I like the guitar sound but the drums don't do it for me. I can't stand EZDrummer sounding drums but that is just my opinion.
