Rebuild The Evil: 'Burial Of Silence

Cheers, Thedon!

My fellows above me said pretty much everything you need to improve this mix. One thing that I'd like to point is that I liked what you did with the OH, maybe give it a little more brightness (?)
Keep rocking man

Thanks for the feedback .
I'm happy you like the overheads ,I did mix this on NS10s which are very bright in the Upper frequencies will double check the top end on other monitors !

Cheers

hi! id say improvement could be done at around 2-3k. you have much elements forward there. you can also make drums cut through better with very subtle sidechaining of bass and guitars, which allow more full sound for drums. good aggression and energy in overall sound. nice work! ^_^

Thanks for having a listen shul ,
Listening back I agree and will bring the vocals down and more punch on the drums ,Do you think it maybe a phase issue ?
which is one thing I didn't check !
Cheers

Yes the recording is definitely faulty. The one track giving problems here is the overhead. I just highpassed all the low stuff from around 500hz and below.. And that fixed most of my problems. But the tracks themselves need a boost on low end followed by good compression. That should make your drums more punchy.

Thanks for having a listen kapu ,
yes there are frequencies competing for space in the 2-3k area.
I will give the side chain a go .

Hi Shul, TheDon

One trick i found to deal with a Oh like those in this track is to roll off in mid-side mode. You roll off only sides, this centers the snare in the middle without losing bottom of it. I'm just experimenting with it and it works.
