hello
sounds good to me except I hear clipping distortion here and there... you should keep an eye on that limiter.

I think this sound is so mild and compressed.
Why the sound are small, but dynamics are small too...? My advise is "you should remove the bus compressor/limiter". It maybe OK that sound will be small cause of removing the limiter. Dynamics are important. (30-05-2016, 06:46 PM)Jimdolorian Wrote: Thanks for your input !

This is Death Metal, the idea is to have a "Wall of Sound" and be as loud possible. Your solution would be to back the limiter off until it isn't actually limiting and pulling gain reduction until it reaches and extreme peak. Dynamics are important yes, but they have to be present in the individual performances to begin with, we cannot add that in post. We have here a track consisting of Sample Drums, Bass, Saturated Electric guitar and Unclean Vocals, all of which have not alot of dynamic range to begin with, the way to tackle this would be to roll with the limited dynamic range of the track and start using distortion and saturation to shape the sound of the mix, use soft clippers on the drums to make them more aggressive sounding and dirty, limit the bass and guitars so that they're consistent and clear in the mix, and use distortion on the vocals to exaggerate their guttural sound. This is the mistake people make all the time when mixing these sorts of metal tracks, they only look at dynamic range and when they find that the tracks don't have very much they get frustrated and give up. They don't look for the other aspects like using the limited dynamic range in a different way, see this as an opportunity to make a raw sounding and dirty mix, a Big, Noisy wall of chaos rather than a Jazz or standard Rock mix.

What DCP said This is Death Metal. It's not supposed to be dynamic. No one would bang his head or jump into the moshpit if this sounds like jazz
Btw: Nice mix, Jim. Love it.
