The Dice Mixed by Dcp

Hi
Í Love your punchy mix sounds great ,the phaser,swirly effects give a really cool vibe.
Just some personal taste thoughts while listening on my horrortones which are very sensitive to quick transients.
The electric in the verse sounds just a touch soft ,love the smack of the kick , snare and toms,maybe just a touch more compression the front end attack of the snare and put a little on the toms to tame some level as popping out a touch ,the top end of the kick beater around 2-5k is also popping out a just touch not by much maybe just a db or 2 max but not a big deal.
Well Done .

Thanks for the critique Don, I'll make a pop over to your thread soon.

I automated the guitars down in the verses so that they would pop out more in the choruses, I may have went too extreme and should've pulled the vocals back a little, at this point I'm happy with the way the guitars sound in the verses but I may try killing the automation there and see what happens.

The snare could use some more compression I think as well, the toms sounded fine to me without compression (listening on a phone speaker they didn't really pop out too much to me, probably just my taste ;P). Most of my drum sound is actually driving the individual drum tracks into the compressor on the drum buss and using a soft clipper to give some smack to the kit overall, this way I find myself using less compressors on the individual tracks and focusing more on how the different elements affect the overall sound of the drums.

The kick is probably going to get some multiband compression to help out that 2 kHz popping to maintain the sound I've got so far.

Thanks again,
Dcp
