My take on "What I Want", let me have it!

Hi guys,

This was a fun one to mix! Having all the mic choices was a little bit of a case of option paralysis so I reduced all of them down to just one, save the guitar where I blended the dynamic and condenser. I'd love to know what you think of the mix

Cheers!

Hi !

I had the same problem : what mic to choose from ? Anyway it's a cool song to mix !

For your mix, I would say the guitars are too muddy for my taste. You can remove some dB in the low mid range. I use also some overdrive to add some bite.
Bass drum deserves as well some extra highs to make it more present in the mix.
I looooove your toms And I'm a drummer !
