I'm not hearing a prevalence of difficult riffs or melodies nor am I hearing overly intricate time sig or tempo changes in your music. What part is it that a simpleton like me wouldn't be able to wrap his head around? ... and I thought us metal heads were bad.

I meant to ask this earlier... Can you tell me what set up you're using for cab/amp/eq on your bass? It has a wicked tone. Also, what bass are you using in this mix?

"The Djent is strong in this one" -said in the best Darth Vader voice I can muster. I'm loving the ambient part after the Djent riff. It's like you took something of the same kind of style as Dream Theater but made it a little more melodic and not so wanky/virtuostic (not that I'm calling it...

I can answer this one. 95% of people who listen to music (or whatever percentage it actually is) are simpletons who don't understand lyrics that are deeper than something like "I just met you, call me maybe" or "my anaconda don't" It's just the way it is now. Aside from musicians, there is a...

I'm getting a sick Rage Against the Machine vibe from this song. I like it, bro. I don't know what else to say.

I found a decent VST and threw in my own drums if anyone wants to listen. (I haven't heard back yet and I need a back up plan just in case) I won't have vocals for quite a while so this is as close to being done as I can get right now. I think I'm going to need to look up more videos on drums...

Naw, that's perfect bro! I'm so new to this that even something that should seem obvious as that wasn't to me. I knew that adding drums will probably change how the volume, panning or EQ will work for the other instruments but wasn't sure how that would work in a vacuum. Not wise ass'd at...

I'm really new to mixing so maybe I can't offer the best advice. I think the guitar sounds good. Chunky but still real nice high end. If you want it to sound a little brighter or metal you could maybe bump the gain on your high shelf. I honestly don't think the guitar is lifeless in any way...

126 views and only 5 comments? Come on guys, tear this thing apart. I refuse to believe I magically made a great sounding mix on my first try. Give me the business!

Hey thanks, Bruthish. Unfortunately, a real mic'd set up just isn't in the cards for me right now so I will need to use DI. It really sucks too because I have a nice Marshall at home,I think 650W, and a Hughes and Kettner Mk3 Triamp head :( My VSTs are using what I assume to be a knock off of...

Thanks very much for listening you two! I'm afraid I don't know what DI means though. Could you please elaborate so I can better attack the solution in the mix? I think the flat notes sounds are coming from the solo in the bends, it's entirely possible I wasn't bending quite enough. I will...

Hey, all! I've been recording crappy songs for a few years now but finally decided to try using a real program to mix a song with. I downloaded the 60 day trial of Reaper and I am definitely going to buy it. I wanted to post up the rough mix of my a song I'm working on. I've been playing...

I'm a horrible vocalist myself but definitely get your daughter some lessons to sharpen up, she has some serious talent for sure and could be molded into something very marketable. Could just be my ears but she sounds just a little thin, maybe doubling the tracks would help with this but one...
