the above post requires a user to mentally replace the word love with the word hate in order to discover the true meaning behind the post.

guitars are little loud in the mix, they seem to overpower the drums. The tone is cool. not as in your face sounding as your other tracks.

God, I hate tracking those damn At the Gates style riffs like you have in the beginning. I'm much better at the staccato type stuff where there's a better defined slower beat. I'm just a shitty guitarist though....lol!

Anywho, slow down the track just a few BPMs. The little fill riffs at :05, :08, :11, etc. sound a bit forced and rushed so that the rest of the riff will fall in time.

i need to recodr music 24/7 again to know how i mix. anyway im getting up that arch enemy patch up tomorrow morning

 

[Mendel]

doesnt sound the mix a little bit like.. tiny or something ? jezus when i listen to as i lay dying's shadows... or Aborted..l it sounds so full. i'm really doing something wrong with mixing.

 

[cobhc]

I' missing some highs over here dude, obvious timing issues.

 

[Mendel]

[billcraftmetal15]

Dunno exactly what you refer to, but I tried some multiband stereowidening (stereo expansion), and it did indeed help. Here's what I did:

--\ 50 Hz: 80% (20% more "mono")
/-\ 50 - 8K: 120%
/-- 8K: 110%

as for the ascii-art:
'--\': low shelf
'/-\': bell
'/--': high shelf

hope this helps,

Nice riffage!!

Cool mix as well Mendelovitchz... personally, im lovin the kick a lot... the guitar sounds really nice and crunchy when you palm mute them.. very cool!

 

[Rekisum]

[BuriedInSmoke]
