ok, in attempt to fix the bass.......(same link in the very first post is the updated clip) i notched out a narrow Q in the kick drum (800hz) and added in some (800hz) of that to the bass guitar. I also added in a small amount of 400hz, and rolled of 40hz and below on the bass guitar. it...

noted........but this is the "home recording" forum? Am i not here to learn how to do it myself? sure, it sounds like a killer idea to learn from a pro in his/her studio......but for those who would like to learn on their own, in their own home, on their own equipment.... tis' the reason i...

ok, mix revision is up! (same link above) i took everyones suggestions, and re did some SUBTLE changes. ........and i mean subtle..... guitars should have less 2.5k and more 8k (clarity), drum buss has less verb, and bass should be less muddy ("should" is the key word here).... is it going...

i DI'd the bass.....and used a bass modeler (ampeg IK Mulitmedia). i set it up so the direct/amp sim is about 30/70. I did use alot of 2k in the EQ to bring in the bass "snap", and alot of 50hz for low end rumble.....and compression galore on it too! maybe thats too much rumble i used.....LOL...

the BASS!!!!! OMG the bass!!!!! ive been struggling with this!! its seems way too "LOW" and not enough body! Ill have to go in and start experimenting again.....

i also agree the rhythm guitars are a bit "middy' sounding. They are tuned to drop-C. Those are the ones i fussed most with, mixing and re-mixing again....i guess i'll have to get rid of some of those mids after all. the drums shouldn't sound that 'mechanic". I was using EZdrummer which has...

ok my lil' critiques....i mixed, and listened, and checked it in my car, checked in mono, checked it on my home stereo.... i think i may be close on this one.....but still not sure. I need extra ears to listen and tell me what it still needs...

well....the blanket came in, and i was shocked how heavy this thing is! and the material is a very tight weave/threads, with decent amount of layers/padding inside. I threw it over my amp, and gave it a whirl..... .......It helps ALOT. I use an Attenuator for my half stack amp, and with the...

interesting enough...ive always heard the -18FS = 0db (analog) rule.......but it never seems to happen that way for me. what i do is.... (please correct me if im doing it wrong)... i use an analog mix board/console for inputs and preamps, and run that into my presonus Firebox (for additional...

ok, now that im A/B'ing them versus other pop tracks...... do you guys think this mix sounds a bit too bright? maybe a bit on the thin side?

the first mix was rather dry....... i re-mixed it, should sound a bit "livelier" now.... same link above. thanks for all the complements guys!!!!:)

that was a step sequencer synth.....its does sound way a bit panned left/right. But i liked to sound so much, i kept it in there. It really throws you off and like "hey....what the hell is that im hearing!?". thanks for the responses guys!! does anyone thing the guitar (lead) sounds a bit...

you guys always gave me good advice when it comes to my crappy mixes.... does this one sound ok? am i getting better at mixing? http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=465137&songID=7223438

Title= "for home made diffuser...." so what are we talking about here? diffusion? or absorption? and what the heck is the difference (if any)?

really? why? the lock out studio (for jamm rooms) i go to in Burbank, CA has them hung on the interior walls. i asked the guy what is was (cause it looked like eggcrate foam mattress pads).... and sure enough.....he confessed it was. cheap bastard.....

try a foam mattress pad. they make those eggcrate foam mattress pads, looks identical to expensive diffusers..... much cheaper, although im sure the material is not the same.... but close... http://www.nextag.com/egg-crate-foam-mattress-pad/search-html

of course...the mic(s) will be under the blanket....... im close mic'ing the amp. So ill be throwing the blanket over the cab and the mics......

Im sure you all have seen people use heavy Moving blankets and sound proofing materials. Do they work? I just got one that is all cotton and about 8 lbs thick called the "producers choice" http://moverssupplies.com/MOVING-BLANKET/ does anyone know anything about this one? does it help at all...

thanks for the responses guys..... im really thinking about grabbing the API plug now. Can you purchases just the stand alone plug buy itself? or do i have to buy the whole bundle? i really dont feel like getting the whole bundle, cause the SSL channel plug i have i use extensivly, and would...

is there something else you would strongly recommend?
