When I said about some exp, I mean I'm guitarist/bassist using(trying?) some orchestration in my mixes. As for example of "power bit+ bla,bla".. Well, Roetaka's mix is not a best offer to learn something, cause it more depends of your imagination(hope you'll understand what i'm saying). And the best example of fake guitars here - "Contra Force Power trip" rmx by Nick(don't remember his full name). As for the hobby.. Dude, I think lot of ppl here have a same situation as you or me. BTW! Actually when I heard first lead guitar's appearing at the start of your mix, I didn't thought it was fake. But when rhythm came in.. Written is good but sounds obviously fake. Great work in here, but fake guitar is fake guitar and, I think if you want to make it "hot" you have to forget about hobbynes and start work with it professionally or (if you have tones of $) by some awesome "guitar faker"). But for my view it's bullsh), better to find guitarist or change your music style(without hurting your vision). Great work! As I already said before.

When you'll understand ppl?! Theres no metal or rock or whatever guitar sounding WITHOUT GUITAR!!! If you want to give some charm to your orchestration, just make some FAR fake guitar to it(listen to RoeTaka - Chaos Legion rmx in here). Making fake metal you making SUCKS! Sorry but it is TRUE. Otherwise, arrangement is pretty interesting and actually good, imo. I like drums, orchestration, and overall production. BUT! This "guitars".. Kill me if I'm wrong, but it will be better if you destroy all of your "guitars" and make some power bit + Low/High freq distorted FAKE guitar in center(and nothing more). Anyway this is only my opinion. I had some exp in that sort of mixes.

Update:mrgreen:: I drop rhythms in some sections a bit in loudness. It still have some power imo, but lead guitar more in front now. Am I moving in right direction? Sorry for asking for feedback at each step, but I'm trying to find myself and, your thoughts GREAT help for me to make good and quality music and bla, bla.. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME GUYS!!

Thank you for attention!! I think I understand your thoughts about rhythm-lead guitar mixing. I'm gonna try it. The only thing that worries me in this .. I want to keep that power. And it depends of rhythm guitars loudness, I think.. But I may be wrong! I'm still a n00b) So I'm gonna try your advice and post here later today. Thank you!

Metallica - My friend of misery Awesome melody!

Firs of all.. Thanks for review! Update: You right about rhythm guitars, there was no distortion pedal(i used only amp's gain) I had some doubts about that sound. Thank you for force me to change it. I used some EQ on synth to make it little more softer and I like it much more now. Also had some changes in play for guitars section, some drums update, changed ending, and some level-up in bass guitar section. And of course lots of changes in mixing. Thank you again! What do you think about it? How bad is it now?

Thank you guys for your thoughts! Now changed to "Mod-review". Source added to privies post. THANK YOU!!

Pain - Dark Fields of Pain(live)

That is great! The only thing bothers me is vocals. Better cut all of those voices out of awesome sound line, imo:mrgreen:

Update. Rerecorded leads, rerecorded rhythms(now heavier), Bass-guitar recorded. Your thoughts, critics, any feedback will be GREAT!! Thanks! Edit: Drums little up in power:) Edit2: Source:

Uptempo! Fast, crazy, loud and distorted! But NOTHING is better! Individuality..

Agreed with almost everything Gario just said. But I really hate guitar. Sounds too obviously cheap. Still I want to say that I like organ(sounds neat and gentle). The best part of that remix intro, imo. I love that harpsichord sound everywhere in this arrangement(but especially in intro). And yes. Too conservative, empty in highs, and it may interest only those who played that game(thats why I'm here). After all I like this mix as and the game. And good work!

I like it! Melodic-aggressive theme is the best thing in music, imo. The only thing bothers my ears - GLITCH effects. In right places, in right rhythm and fists to arrangement, but too obvious, which cause not pleasure hitting effect on my ears and my head. Still awesome track! Great work!!

Wooo!! FOUR month.. I almost forgot about this remix.. Anyway HELLO!! Some update! I changed.. EVERYTHING!! Solo synth + guitar section added, changed arrangement, rerecorded guitars and lot of other changes, editing. Some problems in first two leads(guitar), rhythm guitars issues and some time issues.. Thats what I can hear right now. REMIX: http://official.fm/tracks/212215 I counting on your thoughts guys! Thanks for attention! P.S. NO EQ'ing at all in this remix, NO compression, NO normalization here btw))

Nice:D Can be used as intro(by someone..)

Pain - Supersonic Bitch

Splatter House 3!!!!!! Awesome! Dunno about percussion you have now, but some drums(neat-aggressive) plus up loudness for bass line, then some balancing after that and.. It will be children symphony!! I enjoy this track a lot! But it needs some gentle power) Great soul you have here!

McVaffe - Mega Man Cutman Sonata OC ReMix

NintenJoe 64 - Through Celestial Oceans

Therion - Opus eclipse

Pain one of my favorite bands) As for repetitive.. You right! It is. But it doesn't bother me at all. This song(i hope it will be a song), going to be in album(11-13 tracks). So I think theres no need to make it super-awesome, changing melody or sections or whatever. Some quality upgrade + good vocals and this track will be good, I think.. But maybe I'm gonna cut intro and rerecord bass guitar in closer future. Thank you for giving this shit your time guys! P.S. Read my sig, just in case.

Hello! Another experiment in sound. Any critics, advice, thoughts are welcome!! http://official.fm/tracks/206378 I want this track with vocals in future, but I not even started to think about lyrics. So any suggestions will be GREAT!! Thank You!

Guys, if you talking about someone who starting his way to the top of music scene, you saying difficult things, getting tooo deep in nonsense. Million, trillion, quintillion of backs.. Who cares? FL is good, but for me its difficult in work process. Too many unnecessary things I have to do. Adobe is good for recording live instruments and I never saw something better. Some ppl use Reaper. And saying its cool. I tried.. Awesome real-time vst hosting, but when I wanted to "draw" midi or something.. I failed. But Reaper not expensive and if you give some time to it, you may find something interesting and useful. I stopped on MAGIX for vst-i and pre-masterin(balance), and Adobe Audition for recording live instruments and final balance and mastering. Also MAGIX and Adobe(and FL, and Reaper) don't need super comp to work good. And you may connect your keyboard or whatever to standard midi-in of your sound card(if it have it). After all, you have to try almost everything, before find what fists to YOU.

I gave you some feedback, I hope. I'm sd3's the only n00b!!) Or maybe not anymore.. Waiting for tracklist update, to be sure who(or what:)) I am. And one thing.. Probable I can give you some feedback but AIM sucks and unfortunately, I have it. I'll try to think what can I tell. If you still need it.

Link pleas)
