Also good use of Automation for volume jumps at certain points in a song can make a big difference. Such as bring the chorus up 3 db or so at the end of a verse ( try this at 2:50). Other than that I would even out the vocals as they fluctuate a bit. They also sound like they are in a big room and don't mix to well with the rest of the mix. Sounds pretty cool for recording with low budget stuff though.
Hope this helps or atleast points you in the right direction. |
The stereo enhancement and overcompression reallllly brought out the guitars and made them sit far apart.
I might take a stab at it again eventually.
The vocals are pretty heavily compressed, too. I used the K_____ Classic series compressor. It was about 20:1, hard knee, and a high threshold. Fast attack, relatively fast release. Maybe I should've hit it with more? On my voice it sounded really squashed if I went any higher.
The most expensive mic used on the drums was my used D112 I got for $120... including shipping. Heh. I "stole" my friend's BLUE Dragonfly for the vocals. Everything else was all my cheap stuff. Thank you for listening, though. I was expecting the thread to fall to the bottom when I posted the song. Ha.
My friend said that guitar part reminds him of Casio keyboards.
