Hey all,
I just posted a rough mix of a song off a demo I’m working on for a friend. I was hoping for some constructive criticisms, feedback, and advice. I’m new to recording and I know there is a wealth of knowledge here so any feedback is much appreciated.
The drums were only recorded with 4 mics, 57’s on the snare and 2 toms, and a beta 52a on the kick. At the time I couldn’t do overheads, that has since changed.
The bass was recorded using a beta 52a against the grill of an ampeg 8x10, a hartke 3500 head and a shitty ibanez bass.
Clean guitars were recorded with a line 6 hd147 head. Dirty guitars were recorded with a sovtek head both, through a vht cab, micd with a 57 and a rode nt1.
I’m not really into the distorted guitar tone, but my friend really wanted that type of tone for some reason.
All of this was done on a tascam 2488MKII
It is the first song on the player on this mypsace

Thanks for reading and for any feedback!
