Hey folks,
So just did a mix of this track. Nice song, thanks to the band for sharing it for our use.
Only thing I am scratching my head about is the drum overheads and room.
Seems we have a mono OH and 4 room mics, I've tried to pair them up but I can't seem to figure out which track matches up with the others...
Either the kick is super dominant, or the hi hats, it doesnt seem like its been recorded in stereo properly.
The tone of the room mics is also throwing me off - it doesn't sound like theres a clear "near room" or "far room" tone (for lack of a better phrase).
This isn't me complaining, I'm just confused and not sure how to approach this so I thought I'd ask here and see if anyone has any insight.
I've also attached my mix, for anyone curious I ran the tracks and mixed down on an SSL. Bit on console EQ and Comp, some plug in FX and saturation. And ran a gentle comp on the bus on the way out.
