This version is without VOX and work in progress but i have recorded some vocals and will put another version up when it's finished. Do u guys think the snare is too loud?
Let me know what u think! C4C!

Its got a little too much reverb. Good drum sound overall actually. A key tip to remember is that the loudest things in the mix should be the kick and snare.

Shame the music isn't that amazing.

The reverb bus on the snare is too loud i think, there is not very much reverb on the rest of the drums.

We have different taste in music i guess

I'm not a massive metalcore fan, but the drums & guitars sound good to me.

Levels-wise I agree on the advice that the kick & snare should be loud but my view is that the vocals should be the loudest bit of the track with the kick & snare supporting them. (That view'll probably get me into an argument, but what the hell).

Personally I would say that the kick could come down a tad and there might be a smidgin too much reverb on the snare depending on your taste in these things - the reverb doesn't sound ridiculous but it's definitely there. Also the bass should come up because I can't hear it at all. You're going to tell me you've not recorded the bass now aren't you?

I use Trilian for bass, but i think it sounds really good for being MIDI. The bass is really noticeable for me, maybe i should raise a couple of dB. You would hear a massive difference if there were no bass though :P

I will crit on your song asap

Drummerrrrr?

Sounds good, riffage is great! Snare verb could come down, rhythms could stand to come down a tad to fit into the mix a bit more. Also, guitar needs a bit more chugg rather than scratchyness but other than I like alot, playing is super freaking tight! What'd you use for guitar tones? Drums are Slate?
