Okay, let me get all the files organized and zipped up for you. The bass guitar in the first song I linked is MIDI based, as are the drums in both songs. Is that okay?
I can get you another song from that same band that has vocals, but the recordings aren't as up to snuff as I'd like them to be, it was recorded some time ago. You can do whatever you want with these songs, if you want them. As long as my name gets on there somewhere, you know.
Well this ain't much but I have a track from an old band I played in, unfortunately the original vocal files were deleted so there's no vox but everything else is there. Here's a sample mix. For whatever reason ....... doesn't work here, so: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6451152/mixes/mtaermx.mp3...
I'll be honest, this doesn't sound much different than chango's basic kit with no fx on it whatsoever. Cymbals are very robotic but you only have 8 hits to work with ultimately. As Aceshighhhh said, a full mix is essential for context.
The mix is pretty solid overall, though I'm not particularly a fan of the sound of the kick. That's just my taste. I think the OHs and general mid-range sound acceptable. BTW I don't mean to glory hound but I frequent the sneap forum much more than this one, but I also recently remixed this...
Thanks for the tips! I'm saving up to buy overhead mics for actual cymbals, for the time being I have to stick with one-sample crap. Not sure of any good overheads though.
Been working on this for awhile now, thought I'd drop by on the sevenstring forum and see if I could get more professional opinions about my latest text mix. Not meant to be anything super fancy, just wanna know how the drums and guitar sound to different sets of ears. Needs bass, too. Here it...
Can you show me how to actually use S2 in reaper? I'm pretty clueless. And I see you have a PODUX2. Hook me up with your mixing tips? And some mixing tips for your metal foundry setup too. :B
So I want to make a mix for my drums that mirrors the kit from For The Fallen Dreams and Oceano. Oceano isn't my favourite band in the world, but their drums sound insanely clean and I like the mix. Some links to listen to for reference: Oceano - District of Misery For The Fallen Dreams -...
