Mixing. Need Help!!!

[jhrv]

Hi guys, i need help mixing this song. Tried everything without any good results. Maybe you can mix it and help me get a good sound of it. It's not the whole song, only a few seconds.

The RAR file contains (Raw Tracks):

Kick
Snare
OH L
OH R
Guitar L
Guitar R
Bass
Keybs

Here is my go, no sample replacement (although I wanted to because there was alot of bleed in the snare). Shit you wanted the whole thing mixed, I thought the keyboards/guitars etc were submixes. All well.

Sound good. My main problem with the mix is that i don't know how to mix the guitar, bass and keybs without masking any of those instruments.

 

[Loren Littlejohn]

Oh well lemme have another go then I for some reason thought you were only having problems with the drums.

 

[jhrv]

Here is my mix, i think it sucks, but maybe you can tell me what i'm doing wrong.

Wow you didn't need any help on the drums did you . My suggestion is to compress the fuck out of those high synths as thats what seems to be masked the hardest in your mix.

 

[Loren Littlejohn]

Sucky redo (I had to do this in headphones cause it's late here ):

Your drums sound better than mine the verb is nice on that snare, I think although this is metal that the kick can come town a tad. In this mix I compressedthe two higher synths and panned them both L and R 30 (cubase).

That's a good idea. I'll try that.

More Compression.

Here's my go at it. Didn't focus on the drums at all, just tossed it together.

I think deaf ear has it. Everything seems to cut well.

jhrv I like the first mix you posted a lot. The second one was ok, but the syth is totally lost, and the guitars are too nasal. You last mix seemed kind of weak, it lost all its energy and punch.

Deaf Ear's was really good, but maybe a little muddy (just a little).

heres my go at this even though its kinda late. I really liked Cj's kick and snare. you know, more people should upload stuff like this. I can't track in this small space, but I can do a mix down!

Please let me know what you think!

[dreamcatcher]

Does the bass guitar seem not too tight tempo wise, or am I crazy?


at any rate, my stab is coming....

EDIT HERE

lol, I really don't listen to guits and keys together in much of anything...
