please read lyrics/story for what I did and why sucks a little more than it should.
In the mix I used sends for reverb the snare. The Delay on the lead guitar, was supplied by my guitar pedal, I used a Shure beta 57a to record -5-6 months ago... yikes! The Master fader had the digirack III limiter ( gentle limiter) and the powR noise shape 3. Well, that is it! THe rest just "trying" pan manually and using automations and mixing levels. I basically re-did this to get my hands dirty in midi programming. Let me know how bad it is in a nice way, please.
Thanks

Make the rythm guitar stereo, or pan the lead left. Kill the auto-pan in the beginning. Kill some of the drum room sound (I love room tone, but it's too much). Add in a little OH's, and try to gell the kit better.

Turn up the bass a db, and cut some 250hz on it.

Hey thanks ! I did what you said and bounced another mp3 and re uploaded it. Take a listen and tell if it worked out better?

BTW when I finished the submix, I bounced at 24 bit to multimono. THen I created a new session, imported the bounced session, created a master track, inserted the massey mastering limiter (last time I used the digi compressor/limiter)and last I insert powR to 16bit. Does that sound right? Was it good to bounced the submix as I did and make the new session for the master fader? Is that what you folks do?

Sounds a lot better IMO.

Still dosen't seem to "glue", but shit happens.

I don't bounce and do new sessions. I get everything the way I like it in the mix session, then record the audio to a new stereo track, in that same session. I'll then export the audio to whatever I need it to be.
