My main issue is that the vocal is pretty hot and harsh and makes it hard to focus on the rest of the band. I have to turn the volume down and that takes away from the power and excitement of the mix. It's hard to judge the song beyond that.
It doesn't have to sound good. People just need to think it sounds good.
Hi Redbeard ,
I Like the open punchy and dynamic sound of your mix a lot ,I agree with Roy the upper frequencies of the vocals around 1-3k area maybe just a touch upfront not by much maybe 1-2db max , could be a touch fuller in the low frequencies .
Good job with the effects.
I like the punch of the kick ,maybe the bass guitar could come up more which may require more balancing the bass and kick .
Can hear some low frequencies in the side channels mainly from the kick (could be caused by reverb ) reducing the low frequencies from the sides may help with a tighter bottom end ?
