Thanks! There's a LOTTT of stuff going on at the high end, so I'd definitely believe it if someone told me I possibly went overboard trying to tame that beast. I feel you about the variety, having heard mixed things about it. Balls-to-the-wall types love it while with others it might feel a bit stale. I think Midna definitely is a bit more on the accessible side of things. Thanks! I was kinda going for a Born of Osiris approach, with it just repeating in the background while adjusting the volumes. I found that if I took the keys out during a section it felt super empty. This could be that I'm just a sucker for wall-of-sound approaches, which I think I need to get over eventually. Thanks for the feedback! -
Dark Souls - Ornstein and Smough Metal Remix
RichaadEB replied to RichaadEB's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
Thanks! Yeah, the leads being buried sometimes was partially intentional, but I think i downplayed them a bit too much in the mix. I think mostly my snare is a bit too present as well, so I feel you there. -

Still improving my mixes where I can, went for a more "hype" drum sound on this one to accent the intensity. There are a lot of guitar layers here...

"Midna's Lament" Progressive Metal arrangement
RichaadEB replied to RichaadEB's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
Thanks so much! Mixing the sax into a heavy-ish post-metal type part was a trip; I used M83 and TesseracT as a reference for levels, boosted the high end quite a bit, and applied a LOT of reverb and delay to give it a spacey effect without completely killing it. Glad you like it! -
"Midna's Lament" Progressive Metal arrangement
RichaadEB replied to RichaadEB's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
Nah I think you're right, after I released the video I was listening back and around 5:39 I heard a little bit of dissonance with the tremolo notes, tapping leads, and the tail end of the solo. There wasn't much I could do about it at that point, but I'm honestly not too upset about it. If anyone asks I'll probably claim it was intentional Glad you liked it! -
Took a bit longer on the mix/master with this one to get rid of some of that middy blurriness and garbage. Still not perfect, but I'm rather proud of it!

Adjusted the way I monitor my mix, noticed a few things I was previously overlooking. Lemme know what ya think: (.MP3 and .WAV downloads are available on that link as well) Original:

I usually do progressive metal / rock stuff, but I really wanted to take it easy on this one and try to do the original justice with some slow build, crescendo, ambiance, etc. I experimented a lot with layering all kinds of tracks and effects to achieve a unique tone, and a buddy of mine contributed bass. This track is part of an album to raise money for charity. http://youtu.be/TjRPW7DWXF4

finished Chrono Trigger - Undersea Palace (metal arrangement)

Thank you for the feedback, I'll work with your suggestions and might even submit it -
I'm still trying to figure out how to compress leads and bass properly without completely murdering them in the mix. Really tried to hit an Angel Vivaldi-ish tone with this one; feedback and Critique very much appreciated. Listen I know Chrono Trigger covers/remixes are done to death, but that's not unwarranted. Hope someone enjoys it.

I haven't, admittedly. I'm personally pretty happy with my tones as they are now given the limitations of the interface and software, but they're definitely not professional-grade. I'd like to get an Axe-FX or Pod HD Pro in the future when I have millions of dollars to throw around. And thanks for the heads up about those comps!
