newbie metalcore mix :)

[cybereye]

Hey there, i'm new here. I'm doing some preprod form my band. I'm a total noob so please don't fool me immediately if something sounds like shit

What do you think? I still have to polish bass track and spend some time over hats and overheads...
Ok, what do you think?

For being a self-proclaimed "total-noob" your recording quality and mix is pretty damn good. I've been working on this stuff for almost a year and I still have a lot to learn.

The OH's could come down a bit. The guitars are very boxy-sounding, try scooping out some 700-750Hz.

man you sound great...can u tell us more about the equipment used ?

 

[cybereye]

thanks everyone, any advice is very useful.

every bass and guitar is Guitar Port with pod farm. cymbals and toms are SD 2.0, snare is Sturgis basic, kick is kick 10 SSD. Ozone 4 on master bus with very generic settings.
DAW is Cubase 6 with m-audio pro fire 610 on Mac.

I really would like to know about mastering with ozone ... i mean, should i master drums or other instruments first, and then master again all together, or just the master bus.

Here it is with scooped guitars, parallel compression on kick, lowered OH, and -3db on 800HZ on master eq.
