Hey fellas. I'm working on a very dense mix and I'm trying to really push it hard. Harder than anything I've done to this point. This new material is different than what I'm used too. Down tuned with a lot of stuff going on.
Anyway, I'm having some trouble getting the gruff vocals to be audible but not over powering. There's a big "hole" in the center of the mix for them to sit in but they still compete with the gtrs... and lose! Looking for some ideas to help the vox survive this modern metal mix. Is there kind of a "Go to" frequency you cut to add some clarity in the presence range? How much high pass is typically used for gruff vocals?
Thanks for any help!
