Changes since last time: Messed around with the drums. Tried to make them a little more standout / powerful. Did some work with the kick / snare especially.
Messed around with the bass EQ. Made a cut around the high lows to remove some of the muddiness / boom.
No opinions on the riff / songwriting / playing needed. Opinions and feedback on the mix / sounds / tones desired.
If you want to be ESPECIALLY helpful compare this tone to bands such as: Unearth, Killswitch Engage, and As I Lay Dying because that's the sound I'm going for in a nutshell.
Thank you!

I like it a lot. Unfortunately I have like the Jaedong of headaches right now so I can't give my full in-depth opinion. (headache has nothing to do with your music)

are you the dude who reached a sublime status merely by posting a yawn smiley after everything anyone wrote?

I think you hit the sound your going for very nicely. It sounds very nice. It reminds me of those bands you listed in fact... (imo that's a bad thing, whahahahahahhaahhahaah)
seriously though, good work for post 666

No that was Mydnyte CrownRoyal.
Haha thanks Motiva, this isn't my song . It's a tune from my old old band's album that never came to pass, but will now come to pass :D

good job though man

Very nice, sounds great. Loved Genie in a Bottle as well! :-D

I really like the way the bass kicks sound now. They sound a lot fuller and less clicky. However, the mix overall sounds very bass heavy. The guitars seem kind of pushed into the background.
I do like how you can actually differentiate the bass from the guitars very easily, though.
I think the snare is a bit too loud as well.
Otherwise, it sounds good.
Keep 'em coming! (:

specifics appreciated.

Might just turn the guitars up. That will address all the problems you've pointed out I think PH haha. Hopefully it's that simple, will update with a new mix soon!
|
Ok turned the guitars up a fraction and cut some more low end from the guitars so I didn't turn up the "boominess" along with the "attack". Turned the snare top mic down a hair also.

Also thanks for all the feedback guys! You've all been very helpful (even the "it sounds awesome" comments are helpful to keep me going :D)
|
Yeah, that sounds a lot better. It sounds a lot more balanced, now. In particular, I think turning down the snare really made a big difference.
God, I really need to finish working on my paper...-_-
|
haha thanks for taking time off your paper to critique my mixes thanks for the feedback.

ph was right, 3rd definitely sounds better than 2nd. The beginning with the.. one guitar being more in the background (is there a better way to call that?) really sounds pretty KSEish. One thing that's certainly different is the easily distuingishable bass which is a good thing imo. Other than that it doesn't sound quite as "rich" and "fat" like those bands but I can't imagine that's possible without a professional studio. (never listened to unearth though) If it is I'm not gonna pretend to know how ^^
good job as always

Ha same thing here... whenever I record something I just press the record button, maybe add some effects and thats it ^^ I really need to play me e-guitar more often instead of my acoustic, I think it feels neglected

it sounds awfully similar to the warriors "aggra-vader" did you base it off that? btw links dont work anymore, only heard the first one when u just posted it
