Hey everyone,
I am about to start recording some music but before I do I was wondering if anyone could help me out. As of now I am using garageband (it will soon be replaced with logic studio around christmas time) and am recording directly from my axefx in to a presonus firestudio. As a drum software I have drummer superior with the metal foundry and andy sneap presets. Lastly everything is heard through my Krk Rokit 6 monitors. So definitely think I have more then enough to make some solid metal recordings.
Now I have very little experience with mixing mastering so I was wondering if there is anyone out there that could perhaps provide the baby steps. People make it seem so easy (it probably is for them) but for me, it is difficult since I not familiar at all with this stuff. So whenever I try to come up with anything it sounds terrible because I am just blindly attempting things. I do read articles and go on other forums (so i do know somethings), but I just feel I need more one-on-one help. [I might even go to a recording camp by december.]
Im usually dissatisfied right at the beginning. I lay down a drum track and go straight to recording some guitars. Then I noticing things like the guitars sound weak, the mix isn't powerful and the overall draft of this recording completely sounds terrible.
So if there is anyone out there that could help me get some good mixes started that would be awesome!
I will even send my garageband files to whomever for progress. Just help a noob!
Thanks guys
