Guitar demo, what do you think of this mix?

[cmorris975]

So, I tried a new 'trick' on this one. I used a freeware "TP Basslane" plug-in that sums bass frequencies to mono (in this case I summed everything below 157hz). I think the mix turned out alright, but being a noob to mixing in general I know I have a lot to learn.

There are some issues with this mix to me, but I want to hear you guys think.

Thank you.

nice chops that man,your fingering is kewl as .. guess those are 8`s with a helish low action to play relaxed like that ...

Thanks man, they are 10s and the action is probably just a little bit higher than an average well set up guitar.

Thanks, I used 9s for a very long time but switched to 10s and thicker recently because they sound a little better to me and stay fresh longer. Plus when I want to down tune the strings don't get all floppy . Only took a couple weeks to get used to them.

Sounds good man. Nice riffs and tone. Ezd2 looks and sounds great.

Thanks for your feedback. EZdrummer 2 is quite nice to work with, easier than the drums that came with Ableton Live Suite. Those drums are good too, just not so "mix ready".
