This is my first audio I actually mixed and recorded. Its not done yet, its just guitar and drum tracks but I did it with my motherboard soundcard(I have a soundblaster live but its seems to have alot of delay so I cant use it) and I dont have real monitors so I have worked with what I have. I know the quality is kinda weak and the levels a little bit sloppy but not actually sure whats wrong.( I can also tell the timing is a little off...but I can fix that later)So please dont hold back and tell me what I can do to fix it. Don't worry I wont be offended so say anything you think is wrong or I can do to fix it so far. Thanks.

It's way too quiet.

Nah. Just not at the -0.2db everyone's used to. This works well.

You might back the marching snare down a bit. The guitar on the right can use some gain. And, the part starting around 2:00 is overcompressed (unless that's what you're going for). Keep up the strong work.
 
Awsome thanks.I can fix that stuff, I'm sure there is more wrong if anyone can think of anything.

If someone doesn't read the thread, it's not worth explaining.

Yep.

I just listened to the song. I can't offer any more hints than was already given. Nice tune, though. Keep up the good work!

He was?

Yeah that snare's annoying. The crash is too. Try bringing them down a bit. WHOA! Got really sloppy at 2:40 something. Try to tightin it up some. :D


Sounds familar. Can't put my finger on it. Not really that bad for your first.

bringing the volumes of the crashes and the snare down? or should i change them somehow
 
Again, I would bring them down a little. I find the patterns fresh sounding, and not "annoying." As always, personal tastes.
 
Ok. Thanks guys I apreciate all the help so far, It all helps(hehe even saying i suck at this which fortunately for me no one has :D .)
