The Well Tweaked To Death Version

[andrew0v]

Ya if i broke out my bias fx and ez drummer plugins i could have it sounding a lot better without all the bad nuances but i wanted to keep this natural sounding like the band recorded it

9 chances out of ten the band wanted the drums sample replaced, judging by how the stock drums sound, also this is by no means natural. If you handed this to the band they wouldn't be too happy with the results here, it seems "natural" is just a code word for doesn't really sound great. If you want a natural sounding recording listen to Zeppelin, if you want to make a modern metal track,be prepared to sample replace bad sounding drums, and reamp bad sounding guitars. My critique still stands, don't be lazy, fix your mix, don't all it "Tweaked to death" if it's not and then try to pass it off as "natural", mark it down as a fail and try again.

Cheers,
Doug

well considering the actual song has the actual drum track on it im not sure what you mean the band wouldn't be happy
