This is a Death Metal song I mixed and mastered myself. You can check out my mix and download it here: http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?fid=10435

I am looking for someone to mix/master the song and I am willing to pay so I am not asking for any free work. I don't know what the going rate is but if a few different people would be interested and then post there work so I can check it out that would be great. Jsut post like a minute sample of your mix so you know I am not trying to get it for free.

The tracks are here: http://bloodsoaked.us/song.zip

About 350MB zip file. So you all know before you download all the drum tracks are on one track, I hope you can work with this. If not and someone is willing to re-do the drums and program some killer drums I am willing to pay for that as well.

I am really looking for someone to program drums, mix and master about 8-10 songs during the course of the next year. I like recording but the mixing and tweaking this and that kills me and make is less enjoyable.

I hope some people are interested and if you have any questions please ask.

Thank you,
Peter
 
Hey dude, I'm going to download this stuff and take a look as soon as I have some spare time. It might be a couple weeks because I've got alot going on right now, but I'll be in touch.

Cool, download it and then let me know when you want to work on it. I would be interested in you doing like 9-10 songs for a whole CD.

Hey dude, another good thing to consider would be tracking some DI guitar as well so that I, or whoever works on your stuff could reamp the guitar or at least do some layering.
If you need a rundown on what to do, there are some good threads about re-amping and how to prepare for it, or I could walk you through it.

I have been reading some of the re-amping threads and continuing to read them as I am a little confused but I will continue reading. Let me know when you ahve the time to work on things together and we will get something worked out.

Thank you very much!

He would need a DI box to do this, right? If he doesn't have one, could he even just plug his gtr into his interface for a DI and play/record the tracks as a clean DI? Or doesn't it work that way? Also he should have a descent DI box and not a Behringer or the sound quality will suck, right?
 
Actually you don't have to spend much at all to get a decent sounding DI box.
Sure, you can just plug into your interface, but if you have a DI box, most will have a through output so that you can still plug into an amp or in his case the V-Amp, for monitoring purposes. It can be pretty hard to do a good death metal performance while monitoring a clean DI signal. :p

I do have a good DI box that I use for playing live and it works perfect. Metalhead, once you have time to get going/working on things we can talk on the phone if you like and work out how you want me to record so we can get the best end product. We can work out one thing at a time and then get one song done and go from there....sound cool?

Thanks to everyone....

Sounds like a plan. I'll send you a message with a number.

:lol: I wouldn't want to do it but if I had to...I could use my imagination. :erk:

It would be funny though...in an annoying kind of way.

Plus I've been wondering if it could be done that way so thanks for the info. :)

well, i've tried it :goggly: very quick effort.. under an hour.

First off all...thank you for taking the time to mix my song.

Dude, what did you do to the vocals? I love them, a bit low in the mix for my taste but damn the vocals sound so full and thick.

I think the drums are to loud, guitar s sound good but as well.

Please let me know what you did to the vocals dude, I love them.

thanks man! im glad that you like my mix.

I just did some EQing and reverb on them, pretty hard compression too.

I revided a few things:

Wow! That sounds great! You did all the processing on the master buss or each track separately?
I was having fun with reverb on the vocals also. I really love the huge reverb but it probably wouldn't be practical for the whole song.
 
Hehe, sry but it was late and i had to sleep ;)



I've used samplitude build in plugins, and classic compressor (free vst).
 
I'd really like to give it a try, but to be honest I just think it will probably not be worth the effort when all drums are on one track :(

Separate drums and DI would be awesome, I'd give it a try in a heartbeat then
