Rate this! Symphonic metal, female vox, lots of layers.

My band's recent song called "Dance Of Doom"

[new version below]

it's not limited or anything, so you'll have to crank it.

Any criticism welcome. What can be done to improve this?
Thanks for listening!

Overall balance is there. Your mix needs much more copression to sound pro. Espacially snare needs much more impact. Same for kick and toms. Drums are to paper sounding. Don´t be afraid to compress the shit out of that vox. Think the whole mix is lacking some depth too. But as said, eqing seems to sit right.

My two cents

What drums are you using?

Thanks!
Your post seem to match my thoughts, but i didnt realize that i need more compression. To me, it already sounded pretty squashed
and i dont like low mids here...
depth... thats the most difficult part.

drums are samples taken from this forum, mixed with my own ones.

cheers!

Too bad that I'm on laptop speakers, so I can't comment on the actual mix, but those vocals BLEW ME AWAY. Nicely done!

Vocals are too upfront!
She sings so well but she can be backed off a bit lol

wow, thank you! I Didn't even realize that this could help that much. 2dB down makes HUGE difference. The whole thing is now clearer and more pleasant to ears.

IDK if it is the MP3 compression or if the whole mix really sounds too monophonic for my tastes.

Would be much nicer if it were wider.

+1 On the vocal a bit too loud.


Otherwise... Dobra robota

sound great !
but I would lay back on those basses. I feel the bass is over powering me, espacially from guitars and bass. I would also bring the symphonic instruments more foward. but overall this is my taste, and this sound really good. nice job
