I accidentally found out about this contest and enjoyed mixing this song very much. Drums were not so easy to mix because the direct drum mics did not sound very nice to me, so I mixed in quite a lot of room and overheads. This made the cymbals sound too loud. Maybe a deesser would have helped. The amount of guitar mics was confusing.

So here my notes:

1. roomy reverb on voc, snare could have a bit more body, guitars quite loud but solo guitar too soft and to much in background

2. nice guitar fills, voc very loud an weird eq, quite compressed, hammond barley hearable

3. phase problems on guitars, drums very soft, voc and delay nice

4. bass a bit loud, drums a bit undefined, guitars a bit too much mids

5. drums very distorted and muddy, bass very loud, hammond very loud, quite a lot of clipping

6. this is mine, I like the drums but cymbals are too prominent, guitars could be louder and hammond fills should drive the song more

7. not so well balanced, guitars very loud, drums very soft, no overheads, voc nice

8. voc very distorted, drums crushed but sound nice in a way, percussions a bit distracting

9. drums soft but nice overall, guitars loud, a bit more reverb on the vocals and more room on the drums would help, guitar solo very loud

10. kick has very much low end, snare toms and overheads are nice, delay fx on voc could be more subtile

11. drums an voc very distorted, extremely limited

12. heavily compressed, very dense, very agressive, phasey effect on vocals

13. drums sound muffled, no toms, eq on guitars nice but prominent

14. phase issues, loud guitars, levels not very balanced, vocals sound nice

15. balanced, drums a bit soft, bass a bit loud, overall nice sounding

16. unbalanced, voc extremely loud, phasey fx on drums and guitars

17. balanced, nice sounding, voc a bit distorted, percussions loud, a bit dense but good overall

18. missing low frequencies on the bass because of the distortion, quite long reverb on voc
