Pistas para mezclar Metalcore/Posthardcore

Hola, hay un grupo en facebook llamado Ultimate Stem Share creado por Joey Sturgis en el cual se comparten pistas de temas propios y covers para mezclar, solo tenéis que hacer petición y en cuestión de horas seguramente os aceptarán. Lo malo de este grupo es que es de habla inglesa y cuesta más entenderse, por eso quiero compartirlo aquí para que los que estemos interesados podamos intercambiar ideas y aprender con la mezcla de estas pistas. Copio y pego del grupo original por lo que no se si todos los links estarán activos.

Con esto ya tenéis para practicar vuestras mezcla una larga temporada

Aquí va mi mezcla del primer tema, Have Faith in Me de ADTR, a ver que os parece.

Muchas gracias Mele3!. A ver si me pongo a hacer alguna.

De nada, a ver si se va animando más gente y sacamos buenas ideas de este hilo.
Por cierto, ¿que te parece la mezcla que hice de Have Faith In Me?

Petición enviada,,,, a ver que mas encuentro por ahi

#2 Pues yo estaba acostumbrado a verte sacar bombos mas cañeros, de resto la mezcla en conjunto suena bien, un poco reverbsosa para mi gusto, aunque tal es vez por lo tacaño que soy con las reverbs, creo que ese es el problema de la mía, acá dejo lo que mezclé de someone somewhere, aunque le faltan las pistas de toms porque me dio hueva acomodar el mapping

Algún pico de la voz que se escapa un poco alto. Suena muy bien como siempre..

#6 La tuya perrenke no me suena muy bien. Has usado Gclip para limitarla?. Tiene una distorsión digital bastante grande y ese brillo que deja la distorsión digital. La veo muy diferente a lo que escucho normalmente. Un saludo.

#8 Si utilizé distorsion digital en la caja y en la pista de grupo de la batería, antes se me notaba más lo digital, ahora lo que hago es filtrarle bastante los brillos despues de clipear pero veo que se sigue notando. no se si hallan simuladores de distorsion analogica.

#7 Si, la voz no me terminó de gustar como se quedaba, quizá tenía que haber probado con un multibanda para controlarla mejor.

#6 Me parece que está todo demasiado presente, con demasiada información en la zona de medios agudos y al bajo creo que le falta algo de peso. La batería con el redoble del principio se nota muy mecánica, habría que humanizar el midi. En general hay buen balance entre los instrumentos. ¿Que has usado para la batería?

#9 Es exactamente lo que dice Mele3. Yo es que noto bastante rápido el tema de la distorsión. Y estoy casi seguro que es por el master. Qué limitador has usado?. El volumen es muy alto y parece estar clipeando en digital. Como si hubieras aplastado mucho la mezcla de esa manera para ganar volumen sin esa sensación de "cierre" que te da el limitador. Eso me parece a mí. Te dejo una muestra de tu tema al lado de otro para que veas la diferencia.

Lo bueno es que el balance está bastante bien. Unas reverbs para crear espacio y colocar los intrumentos, balancear un poco mejor y poner un limitador y quedaría muy bien.

#11 Hombre, es obvio que suene mas fuerte que psychosocial porque era una instrumental y no tuve que abrirle hueco a la voz de corey taylor , en todo caso, como veo que usas fl studio, te dejo el flp con los procesos que le puse a la guitarra y el bajo, para que veas si hay algo raro o efectivamente el problema está en la batería. en el canal master esta como limite la mezcla.

#12 Ok..

#10 ah mele3, use the metal foundry en platos y bombo y metal machine para la caja.

#14 Pues tienes que haberla procesado bastante, no me suena para nada a ezdrummer.
