[Sora01]

Hey guys, just finished up a first mix of my bands new song,

was really hoping for some input, hopefully to improve this mix and ones in future!

Im using a 5150 II
Using one of padabois engl impulses.
DFH with drumagog
Pitch shifted guitar for bass
Schecter c-7 atx for guitar



Thanks in advance for any feedback!!!

Guitar is a little to trebley for my taste, it adds a lot of static to the mix I feel. I would try and pan a little better to especially when the lead comes in.

Drums are pretty good, I would lower the overheads a little bit and resample the snare maybe? sounds a little flat to me. Need a little more of boom for this style (which is great by the way)

thanks man, ive dropped a bit off the overheads and added a bit more body to the snare, does sound better i think

taken a tad off the treble too

When you say pan better? how do you mean?
Ive got both rythm guitars hard left and right, lead is a single track centered

When I mix, I usually have the 2 guitar tacks panned so it's one in one side, and one in the other, but each bleed a little on each side so it doesn't seem completly one sided. And the lead should be centered yeah, but i'd pan it a little to the right? I don't know. I'd love to mix it if you'd like me to show you any ideas i have.

would you like me to export the raw WAV files for everything then upload them somewhere so you can have a go? Im not sure how to export the drums all sepratley, do you want it all sepratley or just the whole set. for the drums.

 

[ADRSean]

That'd be awesome. And, yeah each drum file so I can oversample/re level. OR, if you have the midi file for the drums, i'll just load into my EZdrummer/export it there and then resample if needed. And are your guitars mic'd or DI? Either way doesn't matter. If you can just export 'em all, zip 'em up and like upload it to mediafire or something. I'll have a go and show you what I mean. If you'd like of course!

 

[Sora01]

They are DI'd, itll take me a while to upload , because of my slow connection, and i have band practice in an hour. ill get it uploaded asap then post back here tonight
