Hi all! I'm Simone from Italy, and I'm the guitarist of the italian thrash/prog metal band empYrios (www.empyrios.it). We're recording our first full lenght album and I'm doing engeneering, production etc etc.... It would be great if you could take a listen to this mp3 sample.... it's a portion of the drum track of one of our songs... All of you in the forum were so helpful to develope my recording experience... Andy & guys, tell me if this drum sound it's ok, otherwise give me some advices! thank you, thank you very much! And sorry for my bad english! Simone
Sounds OK so far, hard to tell without the music with it. It could be a little better i suppose, it sounds slightly flat to me... but definatly not bad at all.
I'll reserve judgement til i can hear it with the rest of the tracks.
yep, first of all thank you... I have all the tracks already recorded and soon I will do the final mix, and then I'll post the entire song ok? anyway, the drums were less "flat" before, but it seemed to me that were too muddy with the rest of the tracks... thank you! Simone
I think you could just do a little extra EQ work and make it punch a little more, but... as I keep saying I'll tell you what I really think when its done.
I think the hihat sounds a bit thin, try adding some "body" to it. The entire overhead could use some more lower frequencies actually. Other than that it sounds ok. But like Hopkins i'll tell you more when i hear the whole thing
thank you guys, you're great... I'm listening to these tracks since a lot of time and I think I'm a little bit "bored"... these days I'll record vocals and then I will post the entire song! Simo
