MERRY XMAS: Mixing time (groovemetal multitracks inside)

[ahjteam]

So, if you guys want to practice mixing, I made multitracks from one of my songs. Here is the reference mix:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1338211/DesertMines/referencemix.mp3

Some notes:
- Tempo is 135 bpm, 4/4 time signature
- miditrack has 3 tracks; drums, midi synth and midi bass.
- The one that is 2 octaves in lower pitch is the synth bass. I accidentally named them wrong in the zip file
- Drums are general midi/Native Instruments Kore Player mapping. If you hate to work with midi, the audio version is also below there
- I just noticed that the rhythm guitar tracks are clipping, but I was drunk when I recorded them, so try to work with them.

Package with midi drums and synths: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1338211/DesertMines/ahjteam_DesertMines_multitracks_tempo135.zip (~142mb)
midi stuff in audio: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1338211/DesertMines/ahjteam_DesertMines_multitracks_extras.zip (~90mb)

edit: fixed midis
drums: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1338211/DesertMines/midi_drums.midi
bass: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1338211/DesertMines/midi_bass.midi

atleast I was honest but I mean, if you use a tubescreamer, you get about as much distortion to the signal, so it's really not that big of a deal.

MIDI is all fucked up... one track... everything's globbed in together.

I tried and it gave me two tracks. But yeah, I'll re-export them and link them in the first post, shouldn't take more than a few minutes.

edit: added to first post.

I think it was Jarkko who also said something similar on other track I posted and it only happens on the bass track, so I would say that it's the IBANEZ GIO 5 string bass that I used, which sucked ass and had either faulty electronics or a bad jack. I also tried a 4 string version and it had other problems, so my conclusion is: Don't buy one. But anyway, I lowpassed my bass at pretty low on my mix, so it didn't bother me that much especially because I couldn't hear it thru the guitars, but yeah; The crackling is there and the worst shit is around 5khz. I will try to re-track the bass when I get back home in like 2 weeks or so.
