Thanks guys, I find I get more honest feedback here, which isn’t necessarily good for my ego but allows me to improve! yes I agree it needs some resolution...maybe I could reintroduce the ambient part from the start? The schizoid, wondering approach was kind of intentional, though I can accept...

Bump?

Thanks trichter...probably around 50 or 60 lol, something ridiculous. Though I hear on some orchestral mixes there can be up to 100 tracks.

Thanks!

Nice funk and jazz fusion elements on display here - everything sounds real clear and separated in the mix as well. i guess my only criticism would be that the entire track more or less stays at one pace....which come to think of it isn't such a bad thing considering the short duration. Good job!

Nice, I always enjoy your stuff

Weird mish mash of ambient, psychedelia, electro, prog, rock, metal, and even a few bars of funk! Let me know what you guys think.

Heh..I tried replicating that by boosting around 1-2khz, and using the bridge PU samples in my rickenbacker Kontakt library. I might try reamping through a muff pedal tomorrow; I think a rams head could work with the treble cranked.

OK, this is my attempt to record and mix Bomber...

Is anybody able to offer an analysis on how the early motorhead records were mixed? With Lemmy’s bass taking up a lot of midrange how is space carved out for the guitars and vocals? The following is a typical example of their early sound. EDIT: My own recording/mix :

Yes there are spot mics for all the individual drum elements ... genre is rock. it's a relatively fast track so i guess i'll make more use of the closer room mics, maybe bringing the ambient mics in just for the slightly more laid back section in the middle. I normally compress the kick, snare...

Hey guys, I’m doing a mix challenge for a rock track containing stems for the drum mics, of which there are many .... Ambience, OH, Front Center, Front L+R, Rear Wide, Rear High and Wide etc. As someone used to EZ Drummer, this is a little overwhelming to me lol. How should I approach mixing...

Thank molena, it was the spring reverb that was adding a tonne of highs, so I simply shelved the high end from the wet reverb insert and lowered the ‘drive’ function. Plus I cut out a very narrow band from the dry guitar sound - I rarely do surgical cuts but in this case it was necessary

Good to know, I appreciate the feedback

@CMolena @DM60 I created a music video with a slightly remixed version - does this sound a little less harsh in the high end to you? The original is in the opening post.

Lol, I was in the middle of typing my feedback until I realised I commented last month. Really evocative track. How do you create that funk guitar tone? Is it just single coils and tonnes of compression? Also are you double tracking that solo, or just using echo?

Boost around 900hz to 1k on the bass and notch it out of the guitars a bit. i usually high pass guitars up to 170-200hz to make space for the bass.

I feel like I just smoked some dodgy weed. Not my thing musically but that is expert level production on the low end.

Thanks lazer! No I used Ezdrummer for the drums (Vintage Rock).

I agree re the highs...I should have included more low strings in the backing chords to balance things out a bit as well. But then listening to vintage surf tracks, they too seem quite trebly.
