The 'drum only' track only had drums in it if thats the one youre listening to. I've messed with the guitars to but I'm not doing anything until I hear these pieces of shit through another stereo.

They must be lying to me because I swear it sounds decent! All I've done in that instance is boosted: 6db @ 62 4db @ 2.5k 6db @ 4k As well as cut some frequencies between 200 to 500, as well as totally cut out 30-50. This is frustrating. I might try mixing through another stereo. Other than...

Hey guys I've been fuckin with the kick drum alot. I've attached a sample of the drums all mixed. Let me know what you think. I havent compressed the snare or kick so if youve got any compression/eq tips lemme know. I did limit the track a bit and bring the volume up a bit...

Thats a cool song by the way. Impressive stuff. I can definately hear the difference of 4 guitars.

Ill go back to square one and let you guys give me some advice later. I didnt mean to sound disrespectful when asking about the idea that you could have a huge and fast sound - it was meant as a question. Shitloads of bands replace the kick. Shitloads of death metal bands replace it with a...

Fuck ey, with all that positive feedback I might consider being a professional sound engineer. Its why I'm here though. I just had a bit of a listen at my work computer and it seems I'm hearing things very differently on my speakers at home (3-way 25w speakers part of a sony minisystem - not a...

Fuck ey I copy-pasted my post, which obviously changed the address from killacelebrity/track to kill....y/track1 Cheers.

Alright taking a listen to 'Vengence' now. Kit seems to be mixed well. Snare might be a little too low in the mix. Kick drum could be a bit thicker - it fails to cut through the mix at times, doesnt have enough bottom end. I really like the mixing you did on cymbals and toms. Even bring the...

Aaah! Metalcore + gore/death vocals? The vocalist clearly has some cool range there mate but he's overdoing some bits. To match the music i reckon you need to bring the guitars up, make em fuckin huge. Maybe overlay some more guitar tracks. REALLY bring the snare up. The toms sound too bouncy -...

Wow fucking brutal man. Nice guitar tones, good vocals (little too much reverb/echo). The snare doesnt sound too bad sample wise. The kick drum could do with a bit more balls (through its fine for the genre, im a grind man who likes a big meaty fuckin bass drum). Ugh I agree - KILL THAT CYMBAL...

Sorry if this has been covered but; Thats why it doesnt sound any good. Record it with a mic if you can. I've never had anything good come of direct inputs into computers when it comes to analog guitar signals + pedals. It just kills distortion. Also putting heaps of distortion isnt always a...

Hey guys got a new mix for you to listen to. As always I appreciate any feedback or advice any of you can give me. In this mix I tried very hard to tackle two things: a) a fucking BIG wall-o-guitar sound b) kick + snare actually cutting through the mix. The guitars went... okay. Still not...

Well mate I'm not an expert on mixing, but I do know my metal! I was talking about the rhythm guitar, your lead actually sounds pretty sweet. The rhythm, i dunno it just sounds like a stock standard 8-bit metal distortion... how are you recording it? The drum library youre using it a bit weak...

Kick Drum Cut-Through + Wall of Guitars Sorry, double post/thread. Delete me or ignore me.

Just my opinion guys; I dont think its heavy at all. Bass could be a bit thicker. The guitar distortion is pretty bad... just a bleh texture. I'm not sure what the norm is in this genre, I'm a grind & hardcore man myself and I just cant hear the balls to it. I'd recommend fixing up the rhythm...

Thanks champ I'll head that way now.

And they wrote some fucking terrible ones. Until '90, they were untouchable.

Metallica were masters of dynamics and composition if nothing else. Grindcore bands however... a different beast. I can understand what youre saying though. I meant that I cant really use PRE MIXING techniques (instead of post recording which was just retarded). What I intended to do was record...

I've found one decent article; http://www.recordingeq.com/EQ/req0600/stereogt.htm It talks about recording guitar tracks with a dynamic mic and a condensor mic, and making sure theyre 'in phase'. I tried doing this with recording - spent bloody HOURS trying to get them in phase. I failed. I'm...
