Great guitar recordings.
This one turned out to be loud, I hope it is pretty nice as well

Let me know what you think

Edit (v1 R02) - 11.02.2024
- cutting a bit of resonance on the bass bus ( thanks Mikej for your feedback )
- a bit of EQ on the second tom

Cheers
Hello!
I think the mix is excellent! Balance, punch, guitar tone.... it's all great. The only think I can say is the vocal is sometimes out of tune. I know this genre doesn't ask for a heavy tuning in vocals but I think tuning some notes here and there would take the mix to a higher level.

Cheers!
Hey Charile,

Thanks for listening and your feedback. I'm glad you like it!
Yeah, you're right, I felt that too, but in the end I thought I could ruin the "vibe" ( I really don't know )

For sure I'll give this a try in a new revision

Cheers
Hi,

Yeah, nice mix!

Not sure if the compression is just a touch too much for the intro section where the mix is quite a bit busier, probably just me! I really do like the cohesiveness it brings to the rest of the mix otherwsie though. I found the same issue with limiting with the start and end of the mix.

I find the bass is a little bit boomy perhaps? I think there might be bit of resonance/build up in the low end of this mix around 148Hz or so. If I make a very narrow cut here, for me it tightens up the low end and cleans up the mix a lot. Stops the bass kind of 'blooming' and clouding the mix.

Cheers!
Hi Mikej,

Thanks for your feedback.

Yeah, I think a little automation would benefit the mix.

I think the bump you're talking about might be around 200hz, and you're right, there's a setting in my EQ for a slight bump around that.
I can't remember why I've done that move...

Cheers
I dont think it's the boost exactly - I think there's a bit of resonance around 130-150 in one (or peharps both, I bussed them together) of the bass tracks.

Cheers!
Thanks Mikej,

You're right, it's about the resonance in the bass bus ( I bussed them together too )
Everything is a bit clearer now

Yes - mix 1 R02 is much better.

Cheers!
