Thanks everyone for the comments. I think after your and my reviews i need most to augment the drum performance then add vocals. Then, after i have completed the writing and mixing correctly, i think ill make this a mix contest. And as the founder of such things on this forum i will once again...

@Muzz i just threw a load of plug ins at a doubled di 7 string. Theyre all the stock throw ins from Digital Performer. When i get a moment ill show the chain and the newer drum mix as well.

get more humanizing from the snare...yeah totally. its so flippin straight its like me and the robot on stage in this mix. Ill tweak it, thanks Greg

Well right on! Thanks D

No vox yet....to me it seems just a tad subby, and maybe the verb in the clean sections is a tad much..what do u think? http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?id=26326

I personally think its important to mix with the idea that you're going to be leaving around 3-6 db of headroom. That being said i also like a suble amount of compression on the 2 bus to glue things together a bit, but even post compression i still keep the 3-6 headroom.

I just a/b'd the two and the new one is an improvement! Good job man.

ok ok..for real... bus your your drums into an aux stereo track and compress them a bit..they pop out sometimes in a bad way...also take some time to eq some low into your guitars..they're crispy thin....bass is non-descript define or turn it up more.....vox are good really...they are the...

lmfao!!!!! This might be the funniest song in the world..its perfect dont touch a thing!

Yes yes Chibi is correct. Start the process now i say.

I guess he does not want to go to the clinic with us :( oh well...i could still use a beverage ! :drunk:

I believe its time to take this whole thread to the mp3 mix clinic.

Oh i see. So whats next then? Tell me about the plug ins you are using on the vocal...what order...whats the vocal sound like? Thats the next thing to tackle.

That is true in the tracking phase yes.
