Epic late reply...



Guitars are from a Line 6 POD (Blech!)

This was mixed with Reaper as I am waiting for Pro Tools 10 to arrive in the mail. In my time messing with the new Reaper for the first time, I realized that their I/O is crazy easy. This provided an opportunity for me to use parallel drum compression for the first time.

Almost all the effects used are from the built in Reaper effects.

I initially started mixing this as a challenge where I could only use my Beyerdynamic DT770 headphones and 2 hours worth of time to work on it. I completed the mix that you hear now utilizing my Logitec THX 5.1 entertainment system and checking the recording in my Chevy HHR with the upgraded sound system and subwoofer.

Hopefully I can upgrade to some ADAM a8x in the near future so I can mix properly in the future.

Feel free to leave any comments or suggestions. I would love to hear your thoughts on how I can improve. Thank you!
