Could Use Some Feedback

The guitars sound just about right for this genre. 

I have to agree on the snare..... it sounds hollow, like you said. Try soloing it with the kit. 

I have always had a hard time getting the right sound with an amp sim.... they all sound to distorted and bright for my ears. Although I did use one today and I let the track ride. 

Yeah so the big thing in there is that squanky sounding snare. 

It sounds like a squealer type snare. Try substituting a 14" snare into the kit if you can to see what that sounds like. Craig Anderton did an article about taking the fizz out of amp sims that I will try to find for you to read.
Found it.

@Guitarhacker - Thanks for the insight. The fact that u think the guits sound decent is nice to hear. @Guitarpima - Lol...."not happening". Yea, I'll definitely take care of the snare. Thanks. @Thatsastrat - Thanks a lot. That article sounds like exactly what I need to read. Going to check it out directly. @Mesh - No, you're probably right. I took some of the bass off of the drums to try to let the bass guitar come through more. I'll definitely be remixing. And I'll try to check out "Span". On a side note. I just made the big transition from MC5 to X1 so I'm going to remix all my music. Just opening up my music in X1 and it already sounds a lot better and I haven't even done anything to it yet. Having a little trouble getting used to the interface though. Anyway thank you all very much for your time and comments.

The tune is pretty cool. Will it remain instrumental? I don't really like the solo guitar tone but I see your voes here and hope you'll find the tone you want. What are you using here? It sound really DI'd to me.

But I really did the groove and I could actually imagine the snare to work. In my ears it's the buzzy guitar sound that makes the snare not work... or something. It's a bit In Flames-ish. I would leave it in there but layer it with a more "traditional" snare and mix it down a little. What are you using for drums?
 
 
 
By the way, I really dig your song:
Grey Goo Ecophagy
 
It's sort of in the metal genre I dabble in (check my sig if interested - a band of mine)
 
Are you planning to just do instrumentals?

Hmmm... I'm listening to headphones now. Sounds a bit like your guitars are mainly in middle but your drums are panned nicely out in the stereo field. Some of the guitars melodies seem to be a little more spread out tho. I would imagine that if you double track the guitars and leave them in the middle it only adds to the buzz - like it's all getting a little cramped in there? Actually, as far as I can tell, I think the Solo is played pretty cool. It's just the tone. But then again, I love a solo with feel rather than perfection (if that makes sense). BTW, do you have a cab simulator switched on in GTR? Reason I ask is because it sounds a little like back in the days when I plugged the guitar straight into the interface with some distortion stomp in between. I still do that sometimes for the effect of it. But that link Thatsastrat posted looks good. I think I'll read through it myself.

So that snare is just EQ'ed like that? Man that's awesome! I thought you'd found the craziest snare drum sample in the world. I seriously think it's cool sounding. Probably because it reminds me of the snare on Reroute To Remain album by In Flames which I was addicted to for a few years. SD2 is great though. Is it the NY Avatar kit you're using?

I really like your stuff. It's interesting. I hope you find good use for X1 - it really made my life more fun and easy Perhaps a new tool will give you some more ideas too.

Soon I'll post some more stuff. Just need to find time to finish some stuff up that I am alowed to post. Yeah, I remember you comenting on my stuff before. But did you check out my band Black Comedy? I think you might like it. Anyways, I really enjoy listening to your songs and there's some great potential in your songwriting. I'll keep an eye out
