rough mix (haunted s/t influenced metal)

[avrinder]

I'm in the midst of recording my buddy's metal band. Swedish metal riffs, and pretty sick deep vocals.

Drums are all natural, and real amps for guitar (bass was Guitar Rig 4)

Please give criticism, or suggestions. I'm not finished mixing yet, just done some rough stuff so far.

thanks a ton.

note: updated with lower vocals, and mp3 version

Drop the vocals a couple DB. This song is fucking awesome, BTW.

Guitars are a little on the bloated side. Snare's almost inaudible in some cases. I'd say bring up some high end on it. OHs could use a high end boost as well (10k+).


Sorry, I would've replied sooner had I seen the update sooner.

rad, thanks for the suggestions. I'm trying my best to not trigger the drums, so any advice to make them stick out more is a lot of help! thanks.

Not a problem.
