So much critique with no mix posted. Hope you're making an income from telling clients what's not possible, then producing no mix.

Signposting for anyone else who comes along... I downloaded and checked out the zip file... Please don't bother with this one, it's not a multitrack... (ie: individual tracks with the same start time and no processing) Instead, it's all the audio files from a completed mix, maybe the...

Hey this is a great track! Thanks for posting the multitrack... having to figure out the drumkit mics and instruments wasn't too hard This was a fun one to mix, plenty of dynamics to wrestle with and some opportunity to create space between the instruments I felt that the tenor sax stuck out...

It's still very very subtle Could you drop the compressor threshold lower by 6dB and post the result? What ratio and attack / release times have you got set up? Sounds to me like your attack time's okay, but the release is too short so it's not lasting any longer than the second 16th of each...

Hi Wayne, to my ear the hats still sound as even as they do in your track. You can afford to be heavy handed with the effect if you want to make the pumping audible. To demonstrate, I've done a high pass of the Civ hat test 2.mp3 just to isolate the hats a bit (which creates a whole bunch of...

Oh yeah... cooking with gas now! I'm listening on HR824 v2's The vocal is still getting lost in the mix competing with the cymbals and guitars for high end presence... the level's right, just the freq content isn't quite there. It sounds like you've pushed up the mid range of the vox to help...

First off, it's damn good for mixing only on headphones... that's a feat in itself. My attempts have always ended badly. The thing that belies you is the stereo image, which is really really hard to nail if the image is not outside and in front of you. I wanted to hear more of the bass guit and...

No worries happy to provide opinions - I have many ;) Can't say if it sounds better until I hear a revised version... or have you hidden it somewhere I'm not looking? I've programmed 4 bars of the same pattern and applied the effect to every other bar of this example. I've included the hat...

Not to pile it on, but I thought a similar thing re: the effect that the distortion / compression has on the dynamic range. Vivaldi is Vivaldi because it's got those dynamics that were lost, and the parts play off each other, handing the melodic interest around. Although I can hear that...

Nice mix so far though you could go much harder on the sidechain ducking that you've got being triggered by the kit for this style I couldn't tell if it's ducking more than just the pads. I personally think you could high pass the aux vocal (lower pitch one) a bit higher, it's got more bottom...

May I suggest you post the multitrack in the mix-this forum? I for one would like to have a crack at mixing this track... I've never done metalcore before, but you might find others who can do it better than I Best, br3ttski

Balance is very good, only comment from me isn't on the arrangement, just the freq content of the instruments in the top end... You've got a lot competing for the high end, which is okay so long as they take front of stage when there's something of interest in their part and make way for the...

One Time Weekend OK I'll go again... maybe this can just be a thread of my exploits :0P Another one that I enjoyed, great band. Hit me up for the FLP if you want ===================== Art: One Time Weekend Trk: One Time Weekend (whoa oh oh ohh yeah) Mixed: br3ttski on Yammy AG03 and Mackie...

This was a FUN track to mix. Thanks for posting Headline! Mostly clean vocals on most of the mixes above. I went for a more pop vocal thing. Interested to hear why others kept their vox dry. My wet vocal chain after pitch correction, EQ and compression is: A flanger into a bandpass ping pong...

Better all round than the first attempt: That's all I got. May not seem like much
