hey thanks for the replies.
@vinniezero - You're right about the b.g. vocals. I'll try bringing them up.
I'll also try EQing the low mid range on the mix bus to clear some mud. Between 200-500k. That should help, shouldn't it?
I added a distorted double of the vocal track, do you think that is causing the vocal to be boxy?
@Old_Ben - I'm not really great with reverb (esp on vocals). I added some reverb but I don't like vocals being too prominently "verby". I'll try sending them a bit more to the Reverb track to see how they sound. What reverbs do you use on vocals?
@musirez - The room mic track gave me a lot of trouble too, but I ended up using it in the end. The way I mixed the drums were: setting the right levels; basic eq, compression for kick and snare; EQing, compressing the Drum group to get the overall sound. Then when i got close to what i liked, i did some parallel compression for the kick and snare. Before sending it all to the Reverb track.
Hope that helps.
Thanks for the comments people. Lemme know if you have anything else to add.
Cheers.
