Nevermind the parts with too loud vox, it's late and I'm just desperately trying to learn to mix anything
What do you guys think? Is it worth anything?

Cool stuff man, god i love this song!

Few things i noticed.. vocals sound out of the mix a bit, they lack bite the the mix does have.
Last thing, the mix seems to pump a bit too much here and there when i listen to it with headphones, it does seem you have done really cool stuff like better panning and volume with the guitar, am i right?

About vocals yeah I noticed that, I did little experiment here though and hard panned lead vocal track and it's overdub while keeping other vocal tracks more to the middle. Because of that(and because I was too lazy to get volume automation for some parts done heh) vocals get too loud when all vox tracks are playing at once(which may be the cause of pumping). The pumping may be also effect of me playing with volumes dreastically while not changing compressor settings appropriately on master bus. I also squashed it a bit at making it loud(i don't like it, it was just a test here).
Panning thingie was like this: 100/100 rhytm few db louder than 80/80, lead panned 90/90(cause it suplements rhytm here very often) and also few db louder than 80/80 if that's what you mean.
How about drums? I'm most worried about them(i couldn't mess up the guitars too much because they were recorded great haha).
Tomorrow I'll hopefully come up with a fix to those problems(don't want to wake up neighbours now).
What would you suggest to do about vocals? I was thinking about some diffrent eq and maybe distorting them abit, also aren't overheads too weird? I totally suck at those.

Damn. I wanna try to mix that song too but, the link of the tracks doesn't work anymore.

Can somebody upload them again?!

Greetings!

That sounds much better Limak!

I still think the kick pumps too much in the mix, most noticable on the parts with double kicks in them, vocals are better now, more bite and more presence.

Thanx a lot Limak!!

And your mix sounds killer!
