Hello!!
Great song to work on, big thanx to
@Rawkinron as the song provider for this song! Big thanx to
@Mister Fox for running the show and .... keeping us on track! The patience you show is admirable!
What did I do with the song? For a change I don't just drop all the plugins I used but tried to describe what direction I wanted to go. Here we go ..
What did I want the song to sound like:
Kick: Big "thud" with a nice klick to it,
Snare: very present, every hit counts ... not to dry, so the snare creates some space in the drum kit
Toms: just big, not to overpowered
OH's: nicley tugged away, not to much ssshhh, ssshhh
Bass:
Clean low end with saturated top, Bass must be present
Guitars:
wide guitars with power, not to much high gain hiss
Vocals:
Screams: big and dark, clean screams almost like a bullhorn effect
Clean vocals: closer and more sparkle creating contrast with the screams
Here is the mix,
MC089__Hooker_and_a_Handgun__INFERNO__LowlandsWave
Drums: Main channelstrip SSL 4K emu, parallel compression with devil lock
Bass: DI used for low end up to 200Hz Amp for 200 Hz and up added saturation with PA Blackbox, extra sub with bx-subsynth
Guitars: Guitar 1 "Re-amped" using Helix, tone with less high gain hiss. Guitars panned hard left and right. Parallel distortion added for extra weight. All guitars get a little fairchild emu
Vocals: 1073 preamp emu, pultec eq and La2a compression
mixbus: pultec for some air and SSL bus com pressor for some glue and added punch
