Hi,

Great mix so far, way way better than befor !!!

The vocals could need some more bass (150-250Hz), they are a bit too bright and in some parts they stick out too much. The snare should stick out more front ,same with the kick(sometimes get burried).

Nice work !!!

Hi,

The vocals are way to overprocessed(compression???) , they sound like a "computervoice" (exaggerated). The overallmix is kinda dull cause there is too much going on at the bass and low mids. The kick could be turned down a bit. Guitars are good , drums are good ...

Good mix except the few points !

Gave this a listen on my way out the door this morning so I may have missed something. The reverb sounds a little too heavy and there is a top end click that sounds like tapping a pen on a countertop. It's seems to be in timing with the bass drum. Other than that it sounded good.

How about Monday the 14th for the deadline?

Sounds like a plan to me.

It is a great learning experience and keep in mind what I'm saying is how it sounds on my system. It's hard to be critical on these too, give it a try and critique a few mixes, see what I mean.
Anyhow, the drums have a good sound, crisp and punchy, the bass could use a little more definition and the second guitar sounds thin and phasy. The verb on the vocals is a bit strong and the harmony is buried. It's lookin like we have till next Monday to tweak these, enjoy!

Not to take away from this thread but I figured it would be appropriate to post this here.

I have some tracks that NL5 helped me upload if anyone wants to mix them for practice and fun.

The hardest thing is to get a mix to work on different systems. . .
