Hey Sylvain,

It's weird, everytime you post a new mix of this band I feel like "Oh, I thought the previous one was better"... I didn't compare them (don't even think I still have them anyway), but maybe, if you didn't do it already, you should check your pre-mixes... Dunno, maybe this is a completely wrong idea since, as I said, I can't compare them
Oh and by the way, high-quality encoded mp3s are enough to judge, don't bother with such big wav files

Got it now... mp3 next time, please

*listening*

Apparently we don't share the same sound preferences. I have a big problem with the guitars. They sound... dull. And since they're so loud, they make the rest sound the same... Sorry. IM(not so humble perhaps)O.

Thanks guys.

The band guitars sound like that, and the guitarist wanted that kind of sound. It lacks air, and I think I'm going to add some.
In the previous premixes, I tried to cut a lots of mids from the guitars, and then they became duller.
It's not a Sneapish mix, and I don't want to sound like Andy (if someday I can mix like him lol). Everyone tends to mix like him these days. I think that when a guy is going to listen to that mix, he'll hate it or like it, because it sounds a little strange.
I'll get some mids out of the kick for sure.
I think some of you have problems with the snare drum, don't you ? The drummer hits the drums like a woman, and I had to trigger the snare a lot. I kind of like that kind of snare sound, but I'll try to get more of a sneapy touch to it.
And mp3 next time
