If I can't record the vox with my girl tomorrow to have all 3 versions I'll mix a version from Joe & one from Johnny and upload them!
So tomorrow evening there should be at least 2 versions available here

Here's a Joe & a Johnny version!
Overall Joe's version works a bit better imo, mostly because it seems he took a bit more time for it than you Johnny, which is perfectly understandable because you were nice enough to chime in on the vocals because we couldnt reach Joe!
Also Joe's chain was a bit easier to work with. Non the less I think that bouth version durned out awesome, and tomorrow I'll work on an EPIC version with bouth of you in there
Gonna see if I can finally make one with my girl too^^

Bear in mind that I havent slept much theses days (got a lot of DI editing to do for my bands album, various artworks going on too) so volumes are all over the place maybe, but you get the idea of the sound itself.
Also not much automation going on yet (vocals will need it).
Also not sure about Rev, guess it will be a bit loud still.
Pseudomastered it (dunno if someone will master it in the end, or is it up to me too?) so its loud
Great Job guys! Allready tried to blend some shit together, it sounds HUGE haha

The vocals could use a bit of delay imho and the keys are a bit quiet in the mix, on the verses they are good. Otherwise sounds pretty promising.

I've got a reverbed delay going on, gonna turn it up and/or try another kind of delay too.
and yeah, volumewise I still gotta sort things out when I'll sleep more that just 3-4 hours..
wow, sounds great already, Marco!
Yeah, what's the guitar chain, they sound so huge.....
Thanks guys
TS and preamp are Amplitube 3: TSOverdrive -> British Tube Lead 1 (JCM 800 sim) -> LeCab with s-preshigh & Edge Straight -20...
Impulsewise I mix catharsis and guitarhack impulses basicly all the time...
little be of saturation, Eq, a bit comp, reverb.
First time I used a Marshall sim in a mix actually....thought I give it a shot

WO "fuckin" HOOO :Spin:
Got tracking & editing for the female vocals done today, here's a quick mix.
I havent gone too deep into mixing (as with the other vocalists) we still have to figure out how to combine the vocals and so on, no automation, tired ears blabla...
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3961577/Mixes/HolyDiver_ChiriVocals_MagoMix1.mp3
My headphones are really fucked (random alternating cracking and muting on bouth sides), I got used to it but my GF freaked out during tracking (me too the last time I tried) so we went with the monitors...didn't turn out too bad to me surprise 
Does anyone have suggestions for who should do which part?
I tried some stuff and I can tell you: unmuting ALL Backingtracks sounds fucking EPIC
Using all 3 Leadvocals (male ones L and R) on the chorus sounds bitchin' too
I guess we just have to think about who does which verse/which part of the verse and how to arrange the ending, It should be possible to edit/tune the rest to fit together nicely
DISCUSS!!

Nice job to your girl.
In my opinion (and no disrespect to Joey because he did a great job) I would just go with her vocals to give a different vibe from all the other songs featuring male singers. Makes no difference to me though, just a thought from looking at the big picture.

I think we could try to make a mixed version anyway...can pick a single version anyhow in the end^^
