Thoughts?

Thanks guys!

Sounds excellent! The guitar sound a little to snappy. Bring some low mids back into the guitar tone! Drums sound GREAT!

 

[Leuchty]

Sounds pretty good.

I agree with a pinch more low mids. Maybe bring the cymbals down a bit.

 

[Stealthdjentstic]

That cuts nicely. +1 for more low mids.

 

[Dakota]

FINE! I'll do it! Gimme a sec guys

Oh, for reals? What kind of processing do you do on the overheads and what velocity do you set your crashes to when you're riding them, if you don't mind me asking? My crashes in Avatar always seem over bearing and too powerful :s

Sorry for taking so long on the response!!! I program my demos n00b style at 127 generally. Also the ghost notes are at an arbitrary number that just sound good to my ear. On the overheads I just send them all to one bus and mix them with the guitars and the snare solo'd. Just a little bit of EQ and some comp with an attack of 20-30 to match to peak of the crack of the snare.
