Hi guys,
this was my very first metal mix, I'd never done one before. I must say I struggled I bit with it, and I found myself using really extreme eq and compression settings, but that appears not to be uncommon in metal, is it?
Other than that, I really think the way vocals were tracked was a complete nonsense: the main part seemed to jump here and there across the twenty tracks, same for the backing parts. I've come to the conclusion that maybe they tracked them randomly as they had the ideas, and didn't care about giving an order of some sort.
Anyway, I'd REALLY love some help with this. I must say I'm fairly happy with the final result, giving this was my first try with metal. Can't wait to hear from some of you!
Mike
