Love your playing and voice
If it were me I'd put the vocal a little more up front to really carry the song, but its really well played and recorded and that's a matter of taste. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

EQ is a good plan(Bass shouldn't really be up that high anyway!), and a also a little mild compression can sit the bass a little further back as well if you get it right ..

Everything sounds KILLER!!! I really love it! Sound quality is also very very good! I really love you vocals too. What mic did you use exactly man? How about the compressor, which one? Well David, if it sounds good hats off to you, for inspiration (well, to me aswell practicing all the time of course hehe) The mic is a Studio Projects B1 which I got from a friend after helping him out with his computer. (thanks Jarmo) Mic goes to a Behringer tube amp with phantom power, then to my 2-channel M-Audio soundcard. I adjust the level on the preamp so it doesn't peak and do all compressing and EQ-ing in Cubase. I often use Waves Rcomp and RVox 1st and 2nd in the chain on the vocal track. It would be best if I put EQ before compressors I guess but I dont use much EQ on my vocals. Just finetuning it after compressors... then I use, well it depends on the track, some wide chorus, synced delay and some reverb. Sometimes it sounds better pretty dry but mixing vocals are pretty new to me as well... and I try different ways all the time haha, it's like tweaking your guitar sound... always looking for better tone The guitar patch I made myself for the POD X3, it's based on the Mesa Boogie amp (cab bypassed on POD) and as I wrote I use Kefir to simulate the Mesa Boogie cab in Cubase. I always record two times, panned hard L/R and route the 2 tracks to a group channel, where I have the Kefir plugin activated with one of Brohymns Mesa Impulse files. After Kefir I have EQ and a compressor to finetune the guitar. The patch is "dirty" as my playing so all good The solo (my first weeee) is centered and I use some EQ boost around 3-5Khz and reverb... that's it. The drums is EZDrummer, I haven't used it much since I got it, because I liked Addictive Drums so much but I think I'll give EZDrummer some more time. I've heard people getting really good drum sound from it. Hopefully tho' my uncle who often sings on my songs is getting a drumkit soon, because that's the next step in my 70 m2 garage. A complete studio... No cars allowed! So hopefully the stiff beats I riff to will come alive in a couple of month when we have real drums on the tracks... *sigh* Already getting headache about setting up the mics and stuff and get a good drum recording ... oh my God... I tend to overcompress all my songs... but I use less now so it's good. On the master channel I have Izotope Ozone and sometimes a Waves maximizer. Check links below.

Very cool. It reminds me of Annihilator in some parts. When I heard music with no vocals I coudln't imagine this type of vocal but it actually fits great.
Well done -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>
