    Yeah I don't hear anything either.

    my Punk Song mixing

    The kick has more slap now nice one on that. Snare sounds nice. Bass needs more work, try compressing it more with an attack around 40ms release maybe 50ms. Listen to the bass note at 46secs and you will hear it is too loud compared to the other notes, you may use compression on its own or maybe...

    Bad mixing day?

    I don't get bad mixing days, I must be one of the lucky ones as I am consistent in my work from day to day. I can get tired as everyone does so I suggest taking regular short breaks every few hours to give your ears a rest.

    Static-X Cover - Push It - No Vocals (yet)

    To mask the cymbals sounding like they have been stuck in over the drums try bringing the volume of them down a little and add some reverb to them.

    Static-X Cover - Push It - No Vocals (yet)

    Sounds good. Guitars are annoying me a little with the tone, sounds a bit manufactured in the grizzle of them but still nice all the same. Drums are less computerised in the 2nd version, I'd try and add in some tom rolls as this is what the drums seem to be lacking. If you can get nice tom rolls...

    Instrumental + Vocal Mixing ?'s (Basic)

    Try a compressor if your vocals are getting hidden at times, maybe volume automation might be needed as well if your vocal performance is not tight in the dynamics. EQ adjustments in the low/ low mids can help give your instrumental more space to shine so you can then boost the vocal (or as Rami...

    What magic button do I push to get this vocal sound?

    Not just vocal doubling, but their unique voices add to the overall sound as well.

    Challenge: Write a song/instrumental everyday - Day 1

    I think it is a good idea, save all your songs then after say a month or 2 listen back to all 60 songs and see if you can hear yourself getting better as a song writer. No vocals yet? boo :)

    my Punk Song mixing

    Drums sound a bit more upfront now. Id suggest boosting the kick more, boost the high mids and cut the low mids on the kick for more punch so it cuts through the mix more. Guitars sound better more meat in them! It's getting there, once the bass has been recorded could make all the difference...

    New original "Spell Over You"

    Yes I think the new guitars did change the way the low mids sound.

    Mixing down for mastering.

    I would suggest bouncing the mix to a stereo file then save it. You can then import this into your DAW and work on mastering it, but I don't suggest mastering your own mixes unless all you are doing is adding some compression and limiting if wanted/needed. G

    my Punk Song mixing

    After reading some reviews on it, it seems like a good buy for the very low price. I wouldn't say it would be as good as an sm57 or sm58, it sounds a little sharp in the highs to me, which could cause problems when recording guitars. G G

    my Punk Song mixing

    I wouldn't suggest getting that mic for recording anything really. If you are looking for a budget mic then go for an sm57. G

    A little guitar instrumental 4U.. How's the mix?

    Well done on the guitars then! lol I'd maybe drop the shaker from the mix or re-record with a better sounding shaker. Look forward to hearing a new Mix. G

    EQ'ing entire mix (low freq build-up and light on high freqs)

    Didn't get a chance to listen to the first link as it is a dead link now. Ok the low end is too much, it needs tightened up, sounds very unbalanced as a whole in the EQ. A good remix will produce great results as I can hear the recordings are good enough. G

    my Punk Song mixing

    Guitars are a bit too grizzly and a tad thin although I know punk style goes for thin guitars. Why use amp sims when you have your amp? The drums should come up especially the kick, maybe bring down the Ohs a little. Not a bad mix. G
