Thanks for sharing
As for the references I used, for the vocals Numb from Linkin park, and for the overall balance between mid bass and treble Shadow_Moses from bring me the horizon, the mix was totally made with cheap headphones (behringer hpm 1100), morphit and dearvr monitor, with a Presonus 24C board.
My Mix:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/121I9et ... sp=sharing
VOX SREAM: de esser, vmx mic fg and virtual channel neve, eq, 1176, la 2a, ssl compressor, arousor 1:1 only to give saturation, vtm, gate
VOX CLEAN: de esser, vmx mic fg and virtual channel neve, eq, 1176, la 2a, arousor 1:1, vtm, gate
CHORUS AND HARMONIES: eq , 1176, la2a, decapitator
VOCAL BUS: bus compressor, lindell de-esser
BASS DI: svt suite, nadir (amped stv 810), fab mb, vmr (eq and comp), la 3a, saturn 2 (mid saturation), waves l1
GUITARS DI: 1,2 AND 3: I used the clean guitars with a Studio one preset (Rearfire) to which I modified the amount of distortion and loaded a screen impulse with Nadir, I don't remember which was the impulse because I was rendering to gain resources, I sent the guitars to a bus where they were compressed and the trackspacer with a sidechain to a bus where all the voices are, lead, chorus and harmonies.
KICK: eq, compression 1176 and api 2500
SNARE: eq, compression 1176 and api 2500 and a response impulse that I found some time ago on the internet which is a plate for snares.
FILL AND TOM: I did absolutely nothing to them, I just loaded the convology xt with a presonus impulse (tom reverb 6000).
OH: CUT AT 250, -10db at 800 and shelf from 2k of about 6db, lindel de-esser.
ROOM: Honestly I wasn't convinced by the room, I didn't want to remove it because I wasn't sure if the rules allow to remove any of the provided tracks, anyway they are at too low volume, imperceptible, and I recreated my own room using delay and a convolution reverb.
DRUM BUS: I think this is where I worked the drums the most, I used slate vmr (virtual cannel E, u73b just for the color, it's not compressing anything) virtual tape machine, arousor 1:1 just to give it some character, modeled the recordings with an eqp1a, inflator, ssl bus compressor, waves L1 to control some peaks about 2db in some transients, finally hornet analog stage in transistor mode to give more color and to keep the initial gain I had before the processes.
MIXBUS: Slate virtual Mix buss, bus compressor, reduction in 256Hz tape emulation, inflator, multiband compressor, oxford transmod, cmkII from variety of sound, and some very interesting plugins that I found recently from terry west (deharsh, cleanup, ferricTDS basically to control the mix a little) and finally the apUnmask
