Yes, I replaced the link. However, as I switch to them side by side in my DAW I can cleary hear the difference and this sounds much better. However, I noticed that when I upload my mixed track to the DAW (Reaper) it instantly sounds darker (without any effects) and not that clear as before mixing. Is that normal?
I am already planning to get rid of this bass... As far as I understand bass clarity was the biggest problem in my 2 first mixes.
With panning I quite often notice that I don't even like commercial music panning on phones, everything seems separated too much. So I was trying to find something that works both on phones and speakers to me (so image may seem narrow to someone).
Guitar recording setup (everything I can recall):
LEAD
Fender American Deluxe Tele HH FMT - bridge pickup in parallel/big sound
Marshall JCM 400 combo - I believe O2 channel
Rode M3 microphone - not eq'ed on mic. As I have little room treated, the amp was close miced (maybe 10cm ahead), a little to the side from the middle of the speaker. I only have
Shure SM57 and this and thought that need somewhat brighter and airier sound for lead, so picked the Rode.
RHYTHM
Squire (I think) telecaster (middle pickup maybe?)
Roland 15x cube
Shure SM57. I think the amp was miced in similar fashion as the lead guitar.
No pedals were used
EMU 0404 recording interface
Two people holding microphones, as I didn't have mic stands then

)))
Could my problems be due to cheap mic cables?
