Hi Pablo,
Thank you very much for your feedback
I will look for that second guitar. I probably simply forget it, there were so many tracks :p
For the snare, I only used 2 of the tracks (d & e if I remember well). I used some light EQ, parallel compression, and a gated EQed reverb.
For the rest of the drums, I had in mind the kit of Simon Phillips (my drum hero of all time). He uses a huge kit with 7 toms, a gong drum, 2 kicks, 4 octobans and 3 snares (check last Toto bluray, live in Poland 35th anniversary). So I panned all the toms from left to right following their pitch (hi to low). I always keep snare and kick in center (except during the intro, I find panning the snares was quite fun). As a drummer, I tried to imagine myself playing that kit and tried to place each element as I would play them.
I'm currently mixing a demo for my rock band. Vocals have not been recorded yet. I will probably give this song to Mike if my mates are ok with that. Tracking should be done by end of April I guess.
