Removed most of the bleed on the drums using a fast attack multipressor, Snare gets a big plate on a bus.
kick and overheads have parallel compression.
Bass, just a bit of compression and EQ.
Lead guitar - EQ, send to bus with the plate and I have cut out all the dead space from the track.
Rhythm guitar - EQ send to bus with the plate.
Vocals - Cut out everything except the vocal from this track. Mild compression, small amount of pitch correction and send to bus with plate reverb
Master track has light compression, EQ and limiter.
Tempo raised slightly to get it jogging along nicely...
Happy to be told to piss off if not also happy to volunteer my own volume adjusting hand, level match them to something conservative like -16lufs to make it easier to switch between mixes to hear the different approaches.
Bandcamp
Spotify, Apple et al
Definitely ended up too quiet though.
Did the same for the bleed on the 5e3 track
my mix was done by just basic panning, levels, compression and eq. Add in a little reverb here and there and it’s done.
You want each element to sit in its own space on the stereo spectrum, if everything is set up the middle, each track will stamp over the next and it will sound muddy for example.
in addition to the panning you have to consider EQ on each track for the same reason. The pic below will give you a rough idea of where stuff resides on the frequency spectrum.
There are other tricks you can use. The drum overheads have picked up pretty much everything in the room. I wanted just the high end of the drums (cymbals essential) so I used a channel eq and cut all of the frequencies below 800hz or so, this leaves just a "sizzle" to the overheads, each OH track has been duplicated and the second is heavily compressed and mixed in just a little to add a bit of body (parallel compression).
parallel compression was used on the kick to give it a bit of oomph.
I try to get the panning sorted, then levels, then EQ etc...
Just to add, Im very much a beginner at this as well!.
