Hey Neonacity,
Thanks a lot for the feedback, it's very appreciated
Now that I am listening to the mix a couple of days later, it sounds so bright!
Yeah I agree for the bass, it was a struggle because I feel like the signal was to low, either not enough gain when recording and / or the bassist could have hit the notes harder, so I used a guitar overdrive pedal to get a more aggressive sound. I did not want to change too much the original intention of the song but I think some EQ will to smooth out the bass would be cool. I was thinking also of duplicating the bass to have a very saturated one for the attack and another with more low end or a bass synth to get the bottom end. I had Death From Above 1979's first album in my mind while mixing the bass as the verses are drums + bass + vocals only.
Thanks a lot again!
Quentin
