Mixing Practice, DI's Included

[Chrisclc123]

Im new to this forum, but I have been lurking here for awile. Im working on a metalcore recording, the DI's arent great and overheads suck. This is real drums which need replacing with Drumagog or something. Heres a quick mix. The second is RAR containing DI tracks for mixing if possible.

Well Mixed Brother , Those Guitar tones sound Fantastic the average listener wouldnt pick anything not right on this track especially once you added vocals mate
Like has been mentioned most of the work on Any track lays within recording and processing the vocals

Thanks, its le456 on guitars. If anyone wants to reamp these guitars for me that would be awesome

The guitars sound awesome lol A couple things that I would change is eq just a little bit of the kick drum's click out, seems a bit too present but that's just me. Also, the snare has an amazing body to it, but i think it needs just a little bit more high end to it. Overall, great mix man

 

[Chrisclc123]

Im willing to give anything you want to know about this mix out if anyone takes a shot at it. I need the reference .

 

[Chrisclc123]

I gave it a quick try. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/19917325/ShutDown.mp3 did it using a pair of 50$ headphones, so not sure how it sounds on monitors?

 

[Chrisclc123]

Sounds good man, thanks, anymore?

@Chrisclc123: Check your private messages!

Quick rough mix, no leads, but drums/rhythm guitars/bass edited: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/794136/Chrisclc123-edited preview.mp3

There were a couple of bad punch-ins btw, I fixed them though.

@badbadbad: It sounds like you have no cabinet on the guitars (or just the right one)?

 

[badbadbad]

@006 : omg man, I tried made a djenty tone. I heard again this morning, you right. The right guitar had no cabinet, i choose wrong impulse loader @@

Your second one is better

@badbadbad:

Mono overheads?

 

[badbadbad]

Have you download his DI?
I did not mix OH, It's original in my mix
I have not experiences for mixing real drum, I've never tracking with a drum player. In my country, almost drumers don't like metal, haha

 

[majso]

Ok, Finally i download it. And Yes, mono overheads. Weird.

Never Mind, here is my try.
