Symphonic Melodeath. Crushing sound!

[Erik Monsonis]

Hello!!

I've just finished this song:
http://www.fileden.com/files/2006/11/4/347162/04.wma

What do you think about the sound? I don't like my cymbals (EZ Drummer, no expansions) and I'm not 100% satisfied with the snare...

Opinions and suggestions, please!! I'm gonna record a local metal band and would like to replace the kick with mine, what do you think?

Best regards!
-Erik

sounds good man i like it did you use impulses or mic? sounds like impulses could be wrong....

 

[Erik Monsonis]

Burny's harley benton impulses.

Anyone?

I'd say bring the guitar up a bit... sounds like the guitar is in a huge room... maybe cut whatever ambiance/verb you might have on it...

other than that it sounds good.

I would bring that kick down a tad... maybe half or 1 db... its almost too much at some times... and its louder than the snare most of the time...

Thanks for the advice
I'll try it tomorrow

less kick, more OH's

of course, there's probably a reason they're so low if you don't like the cymbals...

cool song though. i'm usually not big on keys in metal, but you pulled it off tastefully and in a way that it doesn't end up sounding like a damned 1987-era nintendo game

I quite like this mix but i thought the kick was a bit too loud, and for me guitar was perhaps a touch low. awesome though none the less gratz!

Heavy guitar sound dude !! What amp is that?

As said above, a bit more OH. But I like the kick the way it is.
