[VOLiTiAN]

Hello all,

This is a different track but has the same mix, just wondered if anyone would fancy a listen and giving some feedback for how it’s all sounding and anything they think stands out as not working

And thanks to everyone who listened to my last track you got me to No.15 in the most popular heavy metal tracks can’t thank you guys and gals enough that was so cool 🙂

So here’s the link for the track feel free to lob ideas on the mix or composition at me 🙂

That Kick Drum is deep … the type where you can feel it in your chest.
Nice job.

Cheers Scott, that was the aim of the game to just amp things up a bit, was it too deep for the fast passages? Hopefully goes to show that heavy kick’s can be found in 2.0

Aside from that you still hearing the guitars a being a bit bassy? Out of interest what nearfields are you using?

Cheers again for the ol’ input always much appreciated!

Take it easy

Well first, it seems like there’s some weird degrading compression on the hi-hats. Not sure what that is, but I downloaded the 128kbps mp3 and still heard it. Sounds like broken glass.

In general, the overheads seem to be missing some presence. The snare has a lot of verb and the OH mics don’t sound like they’re in the same room.

The guitar tone you have is very muted. Why not bring it out? You’re obviously playing some cool rhythms, but it’s not very noticable.

Hi buddy, yeah you’re totally right, it’s superior with MF, plus a layered snare sound using one of the allaire snares so it’s a bit of a mix and match, thanks for the compliments, i’ve done another mix on another thread if ya fancy having a listen 🙂

Hey man, thanks for the feedback you totally resounded thoughts i already had, the prob was the source tone of the guitars was spiking a bit around 2-2.5k so i was trying to dip that but lost most of the top end in the process and so it was trying to get a balance on various systems but overall i felt the whole mix wasn’t coming together and god knows what was happening with the hats they just went really “lo-fi” and i couldn’t work out where from, either way i’ve put together a new mix, totally stripped it back and started again “sigh”, thanks for the input points were definitely taken onboard, in fact i’ve done a new mix if ya fancy taking a quick look at the new thread i created i’d be interested in your feedback, just out of interest were you using a freq analyzer when listening to the tracks and what nearfields were you listening through, sounds like you’re getting a good heads up on the dimensions of the sounds…
