My first time mixing something recorded at another studio

[brianhood]

I didn't track any of this, so there are definitely some things i would have done differently(especially with guitar/vocal tracking and drum editing).

let me know your thoughts though. I have 6 songs to mix, and it takes sooo long just to set each session up Even using a template

Sounds nice man, only thing that REALLY sticks out to me is that the snare is a bit too reverb-y for my tastes, and the clean vocals are VERY dry sounding/possibly a tad too loud. Just my opinion though!

clean vocals are way to loud and so is piano. and whats up with the mono harmonic. pan dat shit broski. and the vocals in general need more verb

Awesome drum sound!

lmao dude yeah i need to pan it one way or the other. The thing is that the harmonics aren't on the DI track. They are from the original guitar tone,and there is just 1 harmonic...not two. So forget having stereo harmonics

what tom samples are those? I assume Slate, but which ones?

those are the Maple toms (not the new maple toms)

 

[Josh Burgess]

I like the maple toms. I wish they had a 4th tom sample for those. I end up using the qik toms instead because of that.

I really hate mixing things i did not track. Its usually a mess and takes a day or two just to clean everything up and get organized. Anyways great mix and Vox volume is the only thing that needs some fixing. Piano volume don't bug me volume wise, just the clean singing and some chants could go down a hair. The group in the piano part is fine though.

duplicate it move the other file a bit behind then pan it hard left and hard right and maybe slap a stereo widener over it

Sounds good
I agree the clean vocals are loud and a bit dry. I think the guitar could be louder.
