sounds awesome like allot the toms ! and the vocals are cool also

 

[aramism]

how did u mic the guitars?




sounds very good. maybe some more low end? the melodic vocals more in the mix, more upfront. all in all very impressive.

Sounds good, I wouldnt touch the low end... and I LOVE low end in mixes...

the sibilance isnt that in the end... if it doesnt bug you too much, leave it... it didnt bug me...

SOUNDS FUCKING GOOD!

 

[Canaan]

I'm envious. I wish my shit sounded that good. Nice work.

 

[nuclearass]

Excellent. Your stuff just keeps sounding better and better! Nice clear mix.

 

[JeffTD]

Fucking hell, that sounds so perfect.

What'd you do to the clean vox? I actually dig his voice a bit, but the room sound/huuuuuge fucking epic reverb or whatever behind it is just godly.

regular waves compressor
nuendo de-esser
a little bit of delay, and some waves rverb

i usually use presets and dont tweak a lot unless im looking for something specific

thanks!

 

[Loren Littlejohn]

Sounds good to me.

 

[KeithRT99]

the mix sounds good to me, but i think there's too much mastering compression, or rather it's too obvious.

my only gripe is that the snare could sound more natural.

i think its just the 100hz - 250 hz area pumping

i took care of it, but havent updated the mix yet

it really isnt being compressed that much, the mix isnt even brick walled the whole time like most of my stuff... there's not a whole lot i can do at this point

 

[Onset to putrefaction]

awesome mix , sounds incredible.
