My latest mix, Prog.

[chopchop]

Hey guys!
So this is my latest mix.. not sure if its 100% done, but its sure getting there!
Would love to hear comments..
I think that my guitars have a lack of brightness in the mix, how can I bring their brightness up?

The whole mix lacks abit of brightness.
You need to eq some of the mud out of the instruments.

Is it a couple of songs mixed together?

Well.. first of all no, its one song.. why do u think its couple? (I guess its the distortion changes? it doesnt really fit ha?)
and 2, do u mean i need to hi/lo pass the instruments for that cause? or that there is another way?

It starts off with the synths and then at the end guitars come in, and maybe because it lasts 10 mins, thats all.

Yeh if you hp the guitars to let the bass guitar have the bass.
You can hp the snare to let the kick come through. Just keep going like that with the instruments.

Instruments also carry mud like the bass guitar which can be in the 200 - 700Hz region reducing in this area can help clarity for the bass guitar.

well all guitars are hp/lp. I'll work on what you said when we'll see the outcome.
thanks!
Also, about the song itself... that's just my writing, weird as it is..
Also its a real lame amp being recorded her so hence the not very good sound..
