Okay, I gathered up the courage to post a rough mix after listening to a certain one on here, I figured I couldn't be much worse. Now before you state the obvious... I'll do it for you.
Overall: This was done very quickly, all parts done by me, this was more or less something just thrown together quickly. Everything is kinda a bit boomy, that was a result of being rushed.
Drums: I have a Shure PG48 for an overhead (hence the no real panning except the first hi hat hit I did in Cool Edit), the snare and bass have crappy RadioShack mics, and the snare wasn't very close to the snare, so you can guess how it sounds. So it's not the greatest to say the least. I EQ'ed the drums on my mixer (so sue me, with what I have, it sounds better!)
Guitar: Mic'ed with the PG48, crappy amp.
Bass: Direct, crappy Squier.
Vocals: PG4 also, but I cut the vox out, because I hate my voice.
I could could on and on, if you want to know more, I'll post but I'm expecting someone so I'm getting through this. This is a 30-odd second cover of Steppenwolf's Magic Carpet Ride (with distortion guitar for the hell of it included).
Just opinions are fine. I've done MUCH worse mixes last year, so I'm getting there. Please don't be to hard
