A lot of big guitar sounds these days are also achieved using splitters to run two, or three amps at the same time, then double or triple tracked, and blended later in the mix. I had a chance to meet Mike Fraser (Aerosmith/AC/DC) yesterday at the Warehouse (Brian Adam's studio), and his latest...

Thanks guys. All opinions are appreciated. Any other suggestions on the kick as far as eq goes?

This is the first mix, and just the demo. Please comment if you feel so inclined: http://www.myspace.com/heidivincent

Thanks for the replies guys. I'm going to try a few of these options. As far as Saw Studio goes, I really like it so far - I'm using it at a studio here in town. I still have a bit of a learning curve to go though ... :D

By the way, I'm using Saw Studio. www.sawstudio.com

Just doing a quick mix with a rock tune that has a lot of guitars going on. Any suggestions other than double tracking, to give the vocal track a bigger, wider sound? I have lots of plug ins, Waves bundle, etc ...

Thanks for the suggestion Don. We'll give that a try.

We've hit #4 ...

I think I just pissed my pants I'm laughing so hard!!!!!!!!!!! I'd have to say that this is one of the most entertaining threads I've seen so far on these boards!!!!! I think I'll go take a listen now ...

We've hit #9 ... :-)

By the way, "Oblivious" is now at #12 on the soundclick.com country-pop charts (for whatever that's worth). Thanks for listening. :-)

I agree that the kick could come up a hair - I think the same goes for the bass track also. This version is unmastered - I'd like to hear what a little overall compression does to the balance of the mix. Anyway, thanks for the input.

Here's my take - overall good job Fangar. I like the drum sounds - the dirty guitars could have a little more meat for this type of song IMO. This has nothing to do with the mix, but I would shorten the tune a little also. Just my opinion though, for whatever it's worth. :-)

Thanks Chris, Amy does have a really good voice. Any other critiques? By the way, this was our first stab at Country pop. (Except the singer of course). :-)

Let us know what you think of the mix on track #1 "Oblivious": http://www.soundclick.com/bands/4/amyisnormusic.htm
