Metal/Beatdown DKFH/SoloC/TSS

[ruonitb]

Hi!

So I thought I would post snippets of my latest mix;

Drums are DKFH with replaced snare and kick.

There are 4 guitar tracks; used TSS and Solo C with impulses (+the famous "Andy Sneap setting" if I remember correctly).

Bass is just a downpitched guitar.

I won't change anything on this certain mix but I use almost the same settings for all the songs for this project and so any advice would be helpful.

And yeah...the kick is too loud I guess...but that's the sound the guy I'm doing this with wants.

Yeah the kick is loud as fuck
But in general...it sounds really tight
I like

That's 'kin brutal man. Me rikey! Kick is super loud. Might be over powering in my car with subs but on my little harman/kardon PC speakers there was plenty of snap to it. Would like to hear more.

man, you are a great vocalist! I loved that last breakdown! the only think i didn't like in it was whatever cymbol was on there. It sounded too... floppy? for a breakdown/beatdown? I dunno, beatdowns are usually nice and choppy. So you should keep everything about them choppy, IMO.

Thanks for the comments!

I'm not the vocalist...actually I'm doing everything else besides the vocals.

Here is the full song: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/602401/Slam Coke - FUCK YOUR SCENE, FUCK YOUR CREW, FUCK YOU.mp3

And that's our myspace: http://www.myspace.com/slamcoke (there are 3 songs in the player).

So I guess I will bring the bassdrum down next time.


@HDWR: If you ever listen to it in your car - tell me how it sounds.

Got a master bus compressor on there? Turn that shit down dude!
Or maybe a drum bus comp? This shit is pumping like fuck.
But the thing is, it sounds like a sick mix that's just been made to pump like fuck, so ease up on the comp.
