POD XT re-tweaked (+addictive drums)... what am I missing?

[Rex Rocker]

I'm sorry if this a re-post, but I updated my latest clip and would like some input... I raised the guitars a tad in the mix and I'm thinking they sound just a tad too dark... what do you think I'm missing? treble or presence?

thank you for listening!

I agree that the tones are dark but I don't know what to change for that. I am curious though, is that tone 100% POD XT? That distortion is awesome! The drums don't sound right to me. Maybe the ambience on them? IDK. Good tune though.

thanks man! yeah, POD xt and you wouldn't believe what guitar was used for that lol... talk about entry-level stuff... anyway, thanks for the opinion, man!

this is the updated one, back when I recorded that, the treble was around 70% instead of 75%

as you can hear, I like my snare a bit ringy and raw, mainly because I'm looking to emulate my actual drummer's tone, hope this helps ya!
