Re: Mac Mixes!!!!!!!!
 

Here's one I just finished mixing called Hurting Kind. Don't be afraid to criticize! I can take it. Feel free to tear me a new one if you feel inclined. It's how I learn.

She's rocking out pretty hard on this one so I was trying not to make the mix too pretty. Vocal, organ, and guitar were taking up a lot of mid range so that is probably the biggest challenge.

All recording and mixing on Mbox.

D-verb mono, panned to the right. Guitar is sent there too (in the verse the guitar is in the left and its reverb to the right, pretty cool). And another D-verb panned left, harmonies go there and tambo. That way the reverb doesnt clogh the mix. This is the first time I use D-verb. It worked because I needed a "low quality" sounding verb with not much diffusion. Or maybe because I was too lazy to hook up my hardware lexicon reverb.

Funny...I just used some dverb on a few tracks I just mixed...somehow they were the only ones that sounded right.

It is always better than I expect....LOL.

Joz,
Killer song and mix...vocals sound great. The guitar sound is exceptional...what are you playing through?
Great job...

Roy, I'm using a Les Paul gold top, straight into PT, then I reamped the signal to a JCM800's clean channel cranked up(not a clean tone at all) and also reamped to a Fender DeVille clean channel cranked up as well.

How do you post a song if you don't have a website to host it?

Re: Latest stuff
 

It does sound killer, Joz.....I have a DeVille too, but it's just SO clean, I usually use something else for anything that needs a little overdive...I bet the JCM800 is the main culprit in the killer sound. What compressor(if any) are you using on the guitar(s)? Very cool about the guitar/left, Dverb/right verse thing too.

Roy, the JCM800 is only coming in the left speaker, and the fender in the right, they are both pretty distorted. Ecxept on the intro and outro, were theres and extra guitar in the middle.
So left and right are different performances, and the middle guitar is the same performance as the left but reamping using a carl martin distortion pedal.
I used a high-pass on the reverbs at around 600hz to give it that vintage effect and to keep the mix from being muddy.
