wow my personnal opignion it's your sound kick ass man!! what's your configuration for the guitar recording please? thanx

 

[wiiii]

Something sounds a bit off about the guitars. I'm liking where it's headed tone-wise but something sounds weird about it. Maybe a bit muddy? I would like to see what other people think.

Other than the guitars (and I could just be hearing things) I think it sounds really good.

I would use more high end on the guitars.

yes, I think the problem is that i'm using 3 tracks and the center one is way too loud, so it's getting a little muddy, it could also use more high end

did you record cymbals?

well, actually, I didn't record the drums, and they suck, we had to overdub A LOT of cymbals, but unfortunately, I can't do it in the whole album.
It's also missing automation so it's still a long way to the final product

thanks for the comments guys, they are VERY useful

Hey cool mix dude!!!!

 

[dcb]

if your going for a polished/produced sound, i thikn you should try to scoop everything a little more (esp. snare) and also try to use some rev on the snare to give the mix dimension. as it is it sounds very papery and 2dimensional, so try to get more depth into your mix. also you could use more high end.

i like the guitar tone !

maybe if your going for a little more old school / raw sounding album,
you could probably get away with how it is now ;-)

hope that helps!

I Agree with Danny, the music definitely would work better with a polished/produced kind of production.
