Rate These - Black Dahlia Type Metal - 5150 / Catharsis / Slate / Podfarm

[guitarguru777]

So I just completed mixing on this Monday night and wanted to give it a few days to settle before giving another listen. I am looking for some critical opinions on this mix.

Guitars are 5150 direct into the interface via Direct Out running Catharsis DI's very little EQ. Just a TS in front with a 71 Les Paul with Duncan JB's

Bass is POD Farm 2 tracks
1 track SubBass amp with the Cali 8x10 Cab Model
1 track Cali Bass amp with Rat Distorion and Cali 8x10 Cab Model

Drums were recorded live (yes I know I fucked up the OH micing ..lol) then sample replaced with Slate Panty Kick, Panty Snare and Maple Toms. Cymbals and hats are all live.

Vocals were recorded with a Sennheiser e835 (only decent vocal mic other then a 57 I own)

Master bus is Waves SSL Stereo Comp, Izotope Ozone Loudness Max with a hint of Mastering Reverb

I think this is probably the best mic I have done yet.

Guitars sound meaty but kind of flubby. The mix sounds great, but I guess you fucked up the OHs pretty bad. The only thing that doesn't sound mono is the hat.

Yup, first time with REAL drums ... hahhaaha

One other thing I forgot to mention only 1 Crash Cymbal ... really odd setup.

Hats on left, China on left, Crash on right, Icebell on right, and thats it.

Snare to loud? On my shitty Pc speakers here at work it really sticks out on the mix.

The flub is more his playing technique as he doesnt really Palm mute, he does more of a damping thing. Its the sound he wants out of it.

Snare sits fine. Kick's a tad loud for my tastes, though.

Really, hmmmm I thought if anything stuck out it was the snare ...lol
