About a year ago, I mixed this band's 3 song demo and it was one of the first paying gigs I got. It's kind of cool to hear their progression as a band as well as my progression as a mixer.

I didn't track/produce any of this, strictly mixed and mastered. All tracked through a Mackie Onyx board w/it's on-board pre's.
The whole thing was actually quite a challenge. I kept second guessing myself on everything and may have tried *too* many new ideas/concepts instead of sticking to my usual methods. Needless to say, I lost my objectivity mid-way through.
Either way, I got through and I'm mildly pleased with the result.
Guitars are just two tracks reamped through my rig: OD820 - ENGL FB - Marshall Cab with GT's and V30's in an X-Pattern. The DI's sounded like they weren't actually recorded through a real DI, as if the guitar was plugged into a line in or something. Not sure about that, either way it made re-amping quite the challenge.
I actually got the V30's midway through me mixing and experimented for hours and hours trying to get a tone I liked. Nothing matched the aggresiveness that the GT's had for this stuff, so... that's what you're hearing.
Guess I need to give the V30's more time
Let me know what you dudes think!
