    Do you think this mix is decent enough for my upcoming album?

    Sounds good. I like the triggered drums. The vocals could do with more compression as they stick out a bit much at times. Maybe a multi comp on the highs of the vocals if more compression doesn't tame these high mids. Nice stuff. G

    How is everything sitting in this mix?

    Yes I would try compressing with a faster attack maybe 4ms (ish) and a higher ratio to tame that attack. I really like the snare sound but as people have mentioned a bit softer sounding snare would suit this style better. G

    How is everything sitting in this mix?

    You can still hear the pitch shift in the backing vocals, the change from 1 note to the next is to precise and fast, you want a more gradual change from note to note to get a more natural sound. I would cut some out of the low mids of the bass, and add some high mids to the bass also. At 2:13...

    How is everything sitting in this mix?

    The vocals straight away are too Sss, you should use a de-esser on these to catch the Sss that stand out too much. Nice Mix overall. Maybe cut the highs on the vocal reverb. Nice weedgie voice! a few parts of the vocals are out of tune, but most of it is really well sung. Some of the vocals get...

    new Boss GT-100... the newest fake amp modeler

    Sounds nice, but its quite distorted overall. I can hear a hiss over the Mix also. The solo guitar is bit much, maybe bring it down a tiny bit and a little less high mids, also it is crackling at points. Nice work though, G

    Captive Audience (original)

    Sounds harsh to me. I like the guitar sound, although I would lay off the high mids on the whole Mix. The cymbals are pretty harsh also, try calming the high end on them. G

    First real try at mixing

    I can hear noise in the Mix. There are also pops in the Mix also. Sounds ok, but there are recording issues for sure. Try and clear up the noise and pops, the guitar rhythm guitar is harsh and you can hear too much clicky pick sound. The vocals sound ok although they are out of tune at times. I...

    Critique my mix

    I already gave my critique on this song ages ago. It might have been on Gearslutz. Good stuff. Overall a bit flat sounding Mix. Not much depth going on. Nice vocals. Is that double tracked or a doubler FX? G

    bandpass

    Sounds like there is distortion on the vocal, and a high pass and low pass, so its more just the mids coming through. You can try boosting the mid range also to add distortion but this can be risky as you can end up with a harsh sound rather than a smooth distortion. Oh yeah and also a delay on...

    Low Cut on Mic or Pre?

    I would say low cut on one of them, it doesn't matter which one as long as the low cuts are both at the same frequency. Or maybe no low cut, you might not need it? G

    Big Drum Sound

    I would use a big reverb. You could use an impulse of a big room as your reverb using a plug-in like SIR.

    Punk Rock Track for you consideration

    Pinched harmonics = so fun to play.

    Punk Rock Track for you consideration

    Wow when it kicks in at the start dude! That was loud. I didn't expect it to be so loud compared to the intro. So I would bring the intro up in volume or the rest of the mix down in relation. The fade in from intro to the song could be better. Maybe a slightly longer fade in and smoother. The...

    Is my mastering anywhere near decent?

    ? This is not a professional mixed or mastered track. The Mix does not sound good in the first place which makes it very hard to master. The mix is really muddy and unclear, which you have tried to fix at mastering but this has made the end product sound scooped in the low mids, and the high...

    Recording Electric Bass

    Use a number of mics on the cabinet speaker and DI. G

    Joey's version of Marillion's "Kayleigh"

    Sounds good. Nice capture of that early sound. Hats are overpowering a little, when they are being hit open. I'd use volume automation to tame them a little. And the EQ is a bit much in the high end for the hats also. At 3:50 the low tom is a bit too meaty in the low end, I would tame that...

    What does this vocal need?

    The double tracked parts at the start of the song are not great. Your vocal performances just aren't tight enough timing wise, projection and tuning wise. As the song goes on your vocal performances get better though. As for the EQ it sounds ok to me. I would personally add more highs. I would...

    Hardware compressors?

    Thanks all I'll look into this. I had the art tube pre-amp which was like £30, not exactly great but worked as a DI box as well so not bad lol. I think I am looking for a compressor that colours the input rather than transparent. Cheers, G
