Recording Metal Band

[GearMan2point0]

I am recording this metal band from upper New York (US). We haven't tracked vocals yet, it's all just instrumentals. I have gotten to the limit of my skills. I can't hear what my mix needs after this. Please mind the sloppy playing at some points, they will be fixed on a later date. Please tell me what you think.

Mkay good mix, but some things I noticed
Guitars seem a little out of tune
An the drums are kinda over-panned in my opinion. Also the perspective throws me off a little, especially once the ride comes in on the left side. Drums are a little robotic, but that kinda happens when you use slate. Tones are great though

"Guitars seem a little out of tune." - They are in drop C, but the bassist had strings that were for standard.
"An(d) the drums are kind over-panned in my opinion." - Yeah I am using Superior drummer, not slate except for the kick. I was using the Avatar Kit and they didn't have a good enough rider/bell on the right side. Sounds funky I know.

"Drums are a little robotic." - I noticed, I need to change velocities. I also just noticed that it needs more brightness.
