Hi guys,

I would appreciate some feedback on this mix job.

Just realized that I had the routing set to have the pan run into a mono compressor for the toms and OH's... use this one instead:

A couple comments, we were only able to obtain some cheap mics for rentals a shur PG mic set for the drums and some behringer pencils for the overheads. I am ordering an Audix dp7 set for future jobs. The The kick is half triggered and there is a homemade subkick in there as well. I noticed that it is a little loud in the mix so I have since turned it down a bit. The left speaker is a Bugera head with a maxon od 808 mic'd with an sm57 on a cheap marshal 4x12. The right speaker, due to no longer having access to the tube head, is my podxt live driven with a tubescreamer on the Criminal amp sim and a ss marshall head. The band seems happy with the mix but I am looking for an objective opinion from you guys.

Any thoughts?

Drums are very prominent - guitars sound good, but overpowered by the drums.

 

[Jon Warren]

Thanks. Do you think its any particular drum or all of them that are too loud?

 

[Jon Warren]

here it is with the drums turned down a bit and a bit of extra onions.

Anyone else?

I'd say the drums are too thin and clicky, if you corrected that it'd sound much better. Also guitars and bass are a bit too low (vocals are nice for the drums).
