Not quite happy with the vocals, I found them hard to sit right.

Which explains why the vocals are the only thing I don't like about this whole mix. ![]() ![]() ![]() As for the rest of your mix, I loved it actually. ![]() ![]() So, for the rest of it, I wouldn't change a thing; just need to crisp up those vocals. ![]() Nice work!

I actually was about to post an updated version when I read your post. I had a bit of a battle with the vocals and I not quite sure who's won yet. I hope they sound better, but I'm a little fatigued now and lost a bit of perspective on them. The guitar tracks 19-22 I HPF to around 150Hz Panned them hard left and right sent them to a stereo aux with a little buss compression to tighten it up, dipped a little at 240Hz and boosted around 400Hz +2db to add weight and power. Then track 24 I HPF and added a little boost at around 4k and mixed on top to add the definition.

Battle's not over yet, but you're winning. ![]() (25-05-2014, 11:16 PM)sano Wrote: The guitar tracks 19-22 I HPF to around 150Hz Panned them hard left and right sent them to a stereo aux with a little buss compression to tighten it up, dipped a little at 240Hz and boosted around 400Hz +2db to add weight and power.

Ok I had another look at the vocals, added a little eq and a little saturation to bring them up a bit more.

Almost there! ![]() The EQ settings I used on them were: -5 dB @ 80 Hz, +6.5 dB @ 5 kHz, +3.5 dB at 12 kHz. I also applied a high pass filter at 76 Hz. This is more aggressive EQ than I usually use on vocals but in the case of these they needed it; they sound rather muddy and dull, and they really benefit from this nice presence and air boost. So I think if you dial them back to the level they were before and try those settings, or use them as an inspiration for your own, you'll get a much better tone out of them. ![]()

Nice mix!
I like the "Snap" you got on the snare, although missing a bit of hi end |
