Hi Blitzzz
Cheers for the reply!
Am usual heavy handed with the rhythm section so that will be why the drums as low and its mostly like why the bass that hiding in the background, thanks for picking up on that.
I went for a fizzy solo sound since its different to what you expect and I'm not a big fan of sticking to conventions, plus I felt it went well with dark vibe of them song (and I was listening to some music just before that had fizzy guitars, so it was probably an unconscious decision, lol), but again thank you for your input.
Finally I'm a LCR mixer, so there isn't anything thats isn't panned LCR, I bussed a lot of the guitars into groups and just went from there, I really really reeeeeeeeallllllly couldn't be bothered sieving through that many guitars to decide where to go or what to do with them, since they weren't labeled what type of guitar they were (rhythm, solo, harmonies etc) so there might be some odd decisions, naturally.
Glad you liked the mix, I'll probably have a revision up tomorrow!
Cheers
