The intro sounds pretty good. I like how the guitars sound. I like the gated effect on the one guitar track. But, when the bass comes in things start to kind of fall apart. The saw portion of the bass is really loud and the low-end seems extremely lacking and as a result the tracks ends up losing a lot of energy.

Thanks for the comment, man. I listened back to my mix and, tbh, I don't hear what you heard, man. The bass is fine where I am at. The same with the saw-bass, nothing "really loud" (my translation: a kick in the eye with hot sauce poured in afterward) or "extreme lacking" (6 feet under, non-existence) as you stated. These are terms reserved for really bad mixes, and I don't think my mix is that bad . Since our mixes depend much on our equipment and the room (mine sucks admittedly), the differences we hear can be attributed to that. What is your set up? The severity of your comment warrants an investigation, not just on my part but yours as well. Identify where the problem exists is 1/2 of the battle already. Cheers!

Btw, my room: 8ft (h), 15ft (l), and 13ft (w). Very square.
