Hey guys, I realise that this song is early in production, i've basically done hardly anything to it except record. I am looking for a large, in-your-face sort of sound. I'm covering Hand of Blood by Bullet For My Valentine (feel free to check it out to compare mine to the original), and I would like some advice on how to mix it better. I'm completely new to mixing, and unfortunately am not using great monitors to do it. When I listen to what I've done so far, I feel that my guitars sound a bit muddy and not bright enough even though they're meant to be heavy and chugging. I would also like some help on drum levels and in particular the cymbals and hi-hats - have no idea how i should be placing these within a mix. My drums are drumkit from hell samples through battery and the guitars and bass are me. I suppose I'd just like some opinions and pointers about how to settle everything into the mix better.
You can find my very unmixed version so far at: Hand Of Blood (Un-mixed)
Thanks!
Tom
