Hi guys,
Just recently found "Devil's Words" by Actions. Awesome song to listen to.
Biggest challenge (probably like everyone else) was making the drums a ton more prominent. I kept the original snare track, but set it as a bottom-end filler (boosted 250 HZ range) then added a second as a trigger for the pop on the high end. Both toms are replaced (trigger didn't work right, some notes may be missing or are not as audible as others), as well as the kick, of course.
My other challenge was figuring out a right compression and EQ for the lead vocal, as well as it's double track.
I also played around with the second to last chorus that acts as a break. I tried a technique to sweep the high cut on a lot of the tracks for a nice transition into the last chorus. Let me know what you think of it.
Don't hesitate to critique, this is my first mix that I've posted. I'd love the feedback!
