This is my first song to complete. It's called Through the eye of the needle by Blood Red Disciple. There is another song called The Posession but it was aborted before finished. I recorded this in my shed in my back yard. There are Two rhythm Guitar tracks and a small lead part for the transition recorded with a sm57 mic'd half stack. There are quite a few tracks of vocals, mainly behind the speaking part when the guitars come in. The talking is being doubled by screaming in the background and panned to either side for each line. The bass was recorded with a beta52. Drums- Snare double mic'd with sm57's, Beta52 on kick, Cad 1200's( I think) on O.H.'s, sm57 and Cad 412's(I think) on toms. I used a firepod for preamps and Tracked and Mixed in Adobe Audition on a $300 Emachines computer. Listen to the one that says mix2 http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pageartist.cfm?bandID=600859

Trailing Behind Again
The vocals are buried so far down that I can't understand any of it. There are only occasional points where they come out over the instruments, and even then I am not sure what they are saying. You nailed the instrument mix, you just need to dial it down and bring out the vocals.
