Hammer Down

Hey Wes,

- Snare is way too loud
- Guitars are too scooped - which is bad because the rhythm guitars drive the song Smile
- The synths are important, but not THAT important. They are way too prominent in your mix, overshadowing everything
- The double bass part is too loud. Easy fix: Use a Low shelf with a -3 db cut around 150hz and automate it throughout the song. every time Dirk Verbeuren plays doublebass you should activate that low shelf and keep the low end build up in check.
- I agree with Doug, the low end isn't really there. Mainly because you cut away way too much beef, especially in the guitars. I think i've filtered out almost all the low end / low mids of the synths for the final mix to make room for kick (70hz), bass (goes down to 40 hz and has dips at 70, 130 and 200 hz for the kick, snare and guitars), snare (punch at 200hz) and guitars (probably 130 hz as far as i can remember)
