nice song... cuma part vocals tu nak kena improve...
sound like mcm "buat2 nyanyi" je... takde feel...
mcm tak all-out... maybe sbb ko rekod kat rumah...
so segan la kalau org sebelah dgr ke.. kan? heheh
btw, berapa ko angkat SM57 tu? kat mana?
aku pun mmg plan nak angkat satu...
hmm kita punya taste gear sama je heheh...
all the best... rekod la lagi! _________________ > facebook

A lot of guitarists make the mistake of scooping their sound too much to the point that it loses 'body'
That's why I love parametric equalizers, I can target the exact frequencies i want to cut or boost, and customize my tone to my liking.
2. The more gain you use, the less note definition you get... and it kinda masks the guitar's tone itself
3. Your drum track could do with a healthy dose of compression so it cuts-through the mix.
4. I used to quad-track too but it was a fad actually..well for me at least.. you dont really need to do this to get a big huge sound... as a matter of fact you can achieve this just with one track each side. Just dont pan each track 100%. Crossfade each track a little. perhaps in the 60%-80% region so that 20%-40% of each track overlaps each other.. quadtracking complicates mixing. Stick to the K.I.S.S. school of thought.
Thanks for listening to my music... It's a shame i don't get much time to do proper finished songs these days. busy with work and all.

Secret numero uno unveiled! So many new good info in there. Thanks for sharing man.
On the mid-scoop and over-gain, yup I totally agree with you. In my case, my guitar body sounds are wiped out by the wrong combination of preamp and IR. Mind telling us which virtual preamp you are using (possibly with its setting) and your favourite IR? And how do you normally process the guitar tracks?
As for drum tracks, IIRC the sounds projected by ezDrummer are already compressed. I thought all I need is just boost them up, not to make it overly compressed. So just add another pinch of compression is OK rite? Sorry la bro, noob question.
I'll try to reduce the tracking to just double and see how they sound. Like you, I also have quite a number of songs begging to be completed. Banyak komitmen la... And most of the time when I want to finish it, new ideas come and creating more backlogs... Haiyya.... _________________

omar: aku pun suka Gearbox yg dtg sekali dgn UX2 aku tu. tapi ni la jadiknya apabila tak cukup berguru dah nak bersilat... hehe
MY-MIC: at least you guys have a team, peeps like me, the so-called one man band cannot do much la. slowly learn the hard way. next song definitely guna TS!
huzai: yup, aku yg approach ko kat ultimatemetal. ko punya gitar sound dgn ridzi punye sedap ah, lemak berkrim. mind sharing your secret too? hehe...
aku pun tgh pikir2 mcm mana nak bagi panjang skit lagu ni. tgk ah sehari dua ni. pasal impulse tu, aku ada beratus gak ah. tapi baru test satu dua. Broohym tu mamat kelantan yg kat tepi masjid, Brohymn! haha
anyway, aku bermurah hati nak share dgn kengkawang impulse yg aku ada. gerenti lepas ni tak yah cari tempat lain dah:

undefined: thanks for the warm welcome and checking out the song. alhamdulillah, setakat ni aku ada 3 bijik schecter. hajat memang nak guna exclusively brand ni sampai bebila
deadzid: tu la psl, masa record lagu ni dah around pkl 12 tgh mlm, memang agak2 ah nak nyanyi. bukan segan, tapi tak nak mengganggu ketenteraman awam. next time aku nak record vocals kat jamming studio ah, baru suara boleh lepas.
ko pun nak beli SM57 gak? memang ah, sume gear kite mcm plan2 je kan. anyway, aku beli mic tu kat sini (JD aka mixboy2105 yg bagi contact):

confirm original, beli tanpa was2. minah yg keje kat situ cerita, ada mamat sorang ni beli SM58 kat Jalan Pasar RM80, pastu suke2 dia gi kat kedai ni nak claim warranty. haha.... memang kena gelak mamat tu. anyway, list price SM57 RM380, aku tawar2 dapat RM330. kalau beli > 1 item dia kata boleh dapat diskaun lagi. selamat! _________________

Ok heard the new mix.... the snare sounds more lively now...the kickdrum sounds bit more punchier now.
But tak balance la bro... overheads langsung tenggelam. Sounds like the drum track is 'choked' by compression. Your cymbals/crashes aren't ringing out and the song sounds kinda muffled. |

huzai: haha... memang, aku pun nak muntah tgk... byk sgt sampai tak tau nak pilih mana satu. nanti ko test la & bgtau mana yg cun.
deadzid: no problem bang. apa2 call je. hah, elok la ko download dulu, tu huzai dah ajak YM. boleh berguru tuh. aku gerenti lepas ni ko hooked up dgn menatang impulse response nih .
ridzi: noted on that. i'll let him know about it. i guess that's the best that he can do at the moment to save the song. memang raw file aku yg tak bagus kot. thanks anyway man. _________________
