Haunted Age - mixed and mastered by Stickman
#1
Hey Guys,

wow, hard song to mix. I had a lot of trouble with the guitars to get a suitable sound for that kind of music.

So here is my mix.

Let me know what you think.

Cheers, Eric

Not easy to mix this kind of music for sure. On the guitars: they are very bright at the moment and that makes it very hard to make the mastermix work. I tried to fix it on the mastermix, but by making the guitars sound better, it affects the rest of the mix as well.

On the guitars, as a starting point, EQ out a big bell at around 700hz at -5db, and EQ out another bell at around 3k at -2, so basically you're getting rid of a lot of mid and (a little less) high mid.

Hey whoosh,

thanks for your feedback. I was playing around with the eq on the guitars as you suggested.

I would say it sound a bit more cleaner than the first one.

Cheers, Eric

I like the changes. Sounds great on my headphones! I'll try and have a listen in the car when driving home.
