New mix to slate

[cobhc]

After some help from Black Neon Bob (thanks a lot man) for getting some more dynamics in my mixes, I decided to fuck about with a backing track for the grand conjuration by opeth. No guitars as my amp is fubar at the mo lol, This is the result

Can anyone give me some tips on how to get some more dynamics into it, i already know about working the velocities in dfhs.

Thanks in advance.

Well since noone replied to this, maybe this will make people talk more, managed to throw some guitars down on the mix, guitar sound could be heavier, it's currently only got 2 tracks on it, will do 2 more tomorrow or something. Here ya go :-

i listened to the last one.. seem ok guitars fit in well anyway.. what do you cut/boost on guitars and what do you use?

btw, the cymbals give the drummachine away hehe..

Listened to both files... compared to the original, you have more ambience on drums, the kick is too loud (especially obvious in some parts) and you need to work on that hihat pattern some more. Basically, these more complex hihat parts played with finesse are the hardest to program to sound realistic. Play with the velocities some more (listent to where the accents are in the original and leave only those hits at full velocity; the rest of them should be softer (some much softer))...
