Liontamer Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Strong performance, and a badass take on "Sloprano." However, this recording's lossy-sounding and way too distorted. If there were raw recordings that could be worked with and salvaged, that would be awesome, but unfortunately I doubt it. Great arrangement done in by really compromised production/recording quality. Tough break, bros, this was otherwise really awesome. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I gotta second Larry here, the whole track sounds like it is being run through a distortion filter. Arrangement and performances were solid, but the sound quality is way too lossy. I would love to hear a resub. No, please resubmit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimpazilla Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 What a pile of crap this source is. At least there's plenty of it in the remix. If there were raw recordings that could be worked with and salvaged, that would be awesome, but unfortunately I doubt it. I beg to differ Larry, they are using Pod Farm 2 which is a guitar amp vst, so all they have to do is reamp the guitar parts (which I'm assuming are just straight "direct input" wavs) and use a different amp preset. (I am assuming this is the case, and that the guitars were not recorded using a mic.) But yeah, track is way too fuzzy. The fuzzy "old rock" tone may be a style choice but it really doesn't work on a metal-ish track like this one. For metal guitars, I would expect to hear a really clean tone so each note is audible, nearly percussive. The fuzz ruins that completely. This applies to the lead and rhythm guitars. Also, all the guitars, most notably some of the leads (like the one starting at 0:33), are way mid-heavy. Gotta lower those mids. The guitars all seem to be eq'd differently too, which gives an unbalanced feel. Bass could be a little louder (but may in fact sound loud enough once some mids are removed from the other guitars). Drums are sounding thin, muffled and punchless as well. This track needs a really beefy kick and nice snappy snare! The opening four crash hits are quite loud compared to your hats and crashes in the entire rest of the song, that's a little weird. I think the whole track could benefit from some rebalancing and eqing. The leads are loud but still feel like part of the background. Use eq to carve out space for your leads against your backing guitars, and use a longer predelay on any lead reverb you may be using. So yeah, reamp, lose the fuzz, lose some mids, give the leads room to breathe, and let's hear this again for sure, it's a really good arrangement.
