This was a fun project and I think it is done now. I did all the backup tracks and my buddy did the vocals remotely and sent a stem back, then I put the lead guitar on. I have messed with stems before, but this is the first time a stem has gone into a final mix, pretty cool, I think. He had already put his own FX on the vocals (didn't send a dry track), so all I did there was try to tame a couple of his S's and peaks, then sent it lightly into the project's reverb bus.
There are a few guitar tracks, one obviously inspired by the Edge sound, hard-panned guitars are supposed to be late 80s LA sound and early 90s Seattle sound, the leads are my version of what Slash might sound like playing the Baba leads.... and then there is the pick scrape... best pick scrape of my life
The main rhythm guitar is boring, but I kinda feel like it needs to be there.
Any thoughts about the overall balance? Vocal level? Lead guit level? Part of me says the leads are too loud and then part of me says it only seems that way because the tone cuts hard and stands out.
