Feedback on Metalcore Mix? (Pod Farm 2, Superior Drummer 2.0, Steven Slate Drums)

DistractMe · 04-23-2012, 04:47 AM

I'd like to get some feedback on my mix for my band's song. Is it missing something? Does it have too much of something else? How can I improve? What does it sound like to you? Thank you!

Nice mix bro, my only recomendation is either bring the vocals down a tad or the music up, when they kick in I can barely here the music.

Vocals are way too loud.

Besides that: nice mix

Thank you for the suggestion guys! I have brought the vocals down and posted the new mix on my original post. Any other comments?

I really dig it now that the vocals sit better with everything. I honestly am finding it hard to critique, and the only thing that I would have changed is the kick drum. I'm not sure what it is, but I'd want it to sound a bit more bassy and to be turned down a DB or two. That's just me though man and i'm sure some might disagree.

Idk if I'd turn the bass drum down, but I'd mix the Dream kick and the Tommy kick together in the SSD it maks a really good sound.

Wonderful advice! Thank you guys again!

Clean vocals sound absolutely amazing. Enjoying the mix, but there seems to be something that's a little ear fatiguing with the guitar tone in the higher register. This is after several play throughs of listening though.
