Nice solid and balanced mix sounds nice and full on headphones ,the drums sound punchy in the centre which is great,Thinking a touch more balance with the guitars and drum kit in the stereo field as missing some room ambience of the whole drumkit and a lot of low frequencies if the guitars in the side channels.
Just some thoughts while listening on headphones and could be wrong again
Well Done
Thanks Don, I used the stereo room track on the drums pretty heavily along with some plate verb on the snare and toms. The guitars are highpassed with an SSL style HPF which was pretty gentle (I could get away with a 120 Hz roll off and still have the guitars sound dense
), backing that off may help a bit. I really wanted the bass to act more as the low end of my guitars and be the anchor for the mix, a chorus may help that out.Thanks for the suggestions,
Doug
Mixing is way more art and soul than science. We don’t really know what we’re doing. We do it because we love music! It’s the love of music first. Eddie Kramer
