Hi guys
What an epic track to mix!
I found the snare to be a bit tricky in this one, but I think I nailed it.
I love the guitars and probably over did them a little!
They had to have distortion, for me the originals was just too clean.
I tried my best to build the track as it progresses. It MUST end with a screeching bang!!!
Let me know what you guys think!
Thanks!!!
Nice big big sounding mix pretty well balanced !
The vocal Effects are a personal choice and I like it ,the vocal and guitar distortion sounds a touch too heavy especially on the ns10 s and Auratones !
The toms seem to pop out and may require a little bottom end eq or a touch softer
!
Great job
Cheers
Don

WOW!!!
You have a pair of ns10's AND Auratones!?
How I envy you!!!
I feel honored that you listened to the track over those babies!
I do agree with you about the distortion. A part of me wants it like that and a part of me wants it to be even more distorted!
Since Auratones don't lie, I'll bring it down a notch!
I was undecided about the toms.
Couldn't decide whether they we're too loud or maybe lacking the bottom end you mentioned.
I'll give them another listen and try to improve on them.
Once again. Thanks for the feedback!!!
I HIGHLY appreciate your input!
Very nice. The kick and snare sound great. One trick I like to use on toms is some tube saturation ... might help.

Thank you very much!!!
Probably spent most of the time on the kick and snare. Going back and forth as I mixed the other instruments together. The biggest challenge for me was to get rid of the "boxy" sound the snare had.
Thanks for the advice regarding the Toms.
I'll give it a try.
