Whitechapel Deathcore-ish band. NorCal \m/

[PeterPaul760]

Just wrapped up this mix a good week or two ago. Recorded and mixed by me, Mastered by Taylor Gormley. Haven't done straight deathcore type stuff in a while. This was pretty cool, hope you dig!

Yeah man, snare is a blend of the recorded snare and my wolf snare. Pitched the wolf snare to match tuning and kept the blend a good 60/40. Could have used the natural snare alone but I wanted more bottom snare and I didn't run a snare bottom while tracking. Tons of cymbals and lots of toms but thank you man!

Drums were live snare (blended), and live overheads. Tom samples were native to the kit and the kick as well. I might toss these up for cheap if people want them. Kit was a tama starclassic birch kit, it was sooooo sick. Power stroke 3 on the kick, ec2's on all the toms, live snare had an Evans HD dry, love them.

Bass was a Schecter bass into UAD Nigel. Blended a few Nigel tones til I liked it. Not much done here, filtering, limiting, some scooping from the low mids, and rbass (used sparingly). Them a second aux filtered up to 2-3k and filtered off at 8k to blend in for some extra clank and clarity to the tone.

Guitars were Schecter c7 and I think a Damien 7, reamped with a 6505 into a Mesa traditional slant cab, sm57 on the cone. 6505 was basically set sneap style, nothing special. Didn't have an overdrive pedal so I used tse808 before sending it out to the amp. Worked nicely! Processing was just some filtering, cuts at 2-300hz and a slight boost at 3k-ish. Some L1 to limit and of course some vcc across the mix to add a little glue.

Just spent a little time finding tones that mesh with the drums straight away so I don't have to journey across middle earth to mix this thing.

I'm down, just gotta make time to format them.

 

[PeterPaul760]

Went ahead and formatted these for kontakt, gonna post these for $1 per tom for the hell of it. In case you dig them and don't want to break the bank on samples. Here are some raw clips of the toms before they hit the mix.

Who did those vocals??? truly amazing man..
I love that drums and guitars.. 10/10 from my side... amazing production...

 

[PeterPaul760]

The vocalist for the band, he's sick! Super easy to work with too, had lots of breath while somehow being pretty loud and powerful. Definitely a good one. Vox were tracked with a Sterling Audio ST51 LDC. Nothing fancy at all, just direct into a L6 UX8.
