Sweet tone dude!! Do you recognize any differences between using the originals (1176 and so on) instead of the plugins?

I hear nearly 0 low end from any instrument!

^ I can hear the bass well. The mix is very bright, a bit ear fatiguing, also the vox seems to have distortion, a bit too much.

I agree that it could use a little more low end, there is not much bass guiding the guitars. I think the kickdrum might be good, but i guess the mix is missing something around 70-100hz?
