I think it has a great tone...should be cool to hear where it progresses to. :cool:
 
sounds great so far!!! im a sucker for that kind of snare sound :)
 
I think it all sounds really great...the snare seems far back...but it didn't seem like the hook had come around so...maybe the snare comes up with the hook??
 
thanks guys for taking a listen.

jamesduysen, I have a tendency to position Snares back some. I like a big snare sound and I probably push a bit too much. If I had vox to balance the mix it would probably come down and forward some.

today, I just received the SVX Bass plugin. man this is one comprehensive plugin. til now, I've mainly used a Sans Amps Bass Driver DI, but I can see the BDDI taking a back seat...

Wow - Rockin' mix - loud too :D Great drum sound - that snare sounds really hot. Guitars sound good, bass too. I'd say this is a clean/pristine mix.... Cool!

:) :) :) :)
 
Eeesh! I'm lovin' this sound! It's way too easy to get a muddled sound just with 3 instruments playing heavier (usually the overdrive kills); you've avoided that completely. Reminds me of the 'Pantera' sound which most bands can only dream of achieving.

Did you double the guitar? That's a thick sound!

Very, very nice!
 
out of interest, what did you do to achieve that snare sound exactly?

the snare is my Pearl 5" maple with the floating system. this is a great snare. very loud and a great pop.

mic'd with an i5 on top. then some EQ to bring out the pop and body, a bit of compression and some reverb.

IMO there's nothing better than a good snare and kick with really thick guitars.

thanks again.
 
Man that is a seriously kickin snare sound. Love that little pop at the start of the fill
 
Sounds awsome and Heavy. Some of the tones you guys come up with make me want to lock you in my closet so I can bribe you with half a day old tuna sandwich when I need your help getting a sound.......... Not ahh that i'd,,,, do anything like that :rolleyes:

Great job Sonixx.

Only nit' I could possibly say is that maybe a hair more presence in the guitar might sound nice. As is I love it. Just thinking of if vocals kick in and stuff.
All depends on what else happens in the song.


F.S.
 
guys, thanks for listening...
