Just spend 14 hours mixing, what do you think?

Sounds pretty good, and a great guitar tone dude, especially if you are recording through a Mic in I used to get such shit tones doing it that way, but you are getting tones like this \m/

 

[Humidfume]

open mix.

reset mixer.

save as.

close.

come back tomm morning and work a couple hours on it.

walk away and do something every hour or so for a 'break' ( i like smoking, you pick yer own poision, haha).

don't stay up late obsessing. fuck it.

listen to a record you LOVE when going to sleep on a nice pair of headphones or something similar that you're very familiar with.

start again the next day!

and let me know how it works out, hahaha.

Yeah man, sounds like a good idea.. it's one of those things you think... gah I've put so much time into this I don't wanna start over.. but I guess it makes sense.

One track that really gets me going atm is Periphery's - Icarus Lives, that track is so feckin beefy.. here's a link:

But I've no idea how to get that type of sound at all. It sounds really scooped to me?

Plus the kicks in this sound awesome :


just seems like when I use any other kick from what I have it doesn't "fit".. maybe that's just my brain fighting the familiarity?

The snare sounds like a tea bag hitting thin air to me

Hahaha well.. I'm British and as such I happen to really enjoy Tea

Hahahaha does that mean you like the snare? Bahaaha I've no idea how to mix it.. I always ending up having not enough or too much under snare in there.

It's either a pop or a pop followed by the ruffles.. I don't know where to cut it off.

 

[Jaymz]

Im British & like tea, but not a fan of the snare. Try an expander if you want to kill some of the "ruffles".....or if your compressing it a slower attack perhaps?

 

[Felix Neumann]

Nice riffing! Agree on the snare, I do not like! Guitars sounds very cool imo..

I know HOW to get rid of it etc, I just can't decide WHERE to cut it.. seems like the snare can either pop and have no ruffle or pop and keep it.. if I cut it with a long roll off (release on the gate / comp) half way through it sounds wierd.

Thanks man! Looks like I need to sort this snare out then.

 

[Humidfume]

New mix uploaded to Dropbox, generally another improvement in clarity and power etc.. I just really can't sort this snare (it's a completely new sample now though).

See the first post for details.

That snare definitely needs to change. You looking to try out other samples? I've got some to offer if you need.

Go for it man, I just feel a little pissed that I paid $5 for something I won't use

Dude, I bought the Joey snare yesterday and tried to blend it in with a sample im working on and it just didn't work. However im sure it will come in handy for a different style one day. You can't argue with 3 quid!

Hahaha you can if you don't use it hahaha

New mix sounds good except the snare is sooooo loud. I think if you brought it down a few dBs it would actually work quite well.
