This might be asking alot... BUT

Im curious to see how my Micing techniques are compared to my mixing skills.
I've mixed it myself bunch of times.. but I'm interested to see how a more experienced engineer would work with it.

Would anyone be interested in mixing tracks to a song i made?

Decent amount of tracks... in the teens.

So do you want me to mix in the box or do I get to use my Neve, API, UREI, Lexicon, DBX stuff? No! Wait! Can I use both?

We could use AOL Instant Messenger for real-time unlimited size file transfers. Or you could post each individual track as a song on many of the available services on the Internet.

Thanks guys,
No time frame.. and you can use whatever you'd like.. It be nice if you could let me know what equipment you used though. I will post the files by tomorrow..
I really want to see if my mics and interface need to be upgraded...
So hopefully this will tell me if i can get a good finished product with my miking skills..

I bet you drive a Prius. :)

Au contraire. I not only don't drive a Prius, I drive a gas guzzling Chevy Van & an equally hungry Mercedes-Benz 1117. If I can get some extra cash flowing, I'll even restore my 1982 Honda Silverwing. My hybrid workflow just happens to be part analog & part digital. Sometimes mixing in analog. Sometimes mixing in the box. Sometimes having both on the same CD. And although I have my preferences I'm fairly consistent either way. If I track/record through the Neve, API's, I'll frequently mix in the computer. If tracks come in recorded through something else, I may pass them through the Neve for mixing, or just for the tone and back to multitrack digital. Although many of these plug-ins are good these " emulations" are nothing more than genuine imitations. So I generally want the real deals. Analog summing? No problems.

If you ever want to donate some vintage gear to the poor, then send it my way :)

OK, so if the OP doesn't care that people want to help him, I'd be glad to throw something of mine up here and learn something from you all.

Here is my rough mix so you can check the song out before downloading a huge file to see if you even want to jack with it. Free File Hosting Made Simple - MediaFire

Thanks to anyone that is still interested in doing this, I would love to compare my crappy mix with all of yours and learn how to fix mine!

Nice job on the original...would love to hear the updated version! One thing no one is doing (at least that I can remember...I've listened to a lot!) from my original version that I really miss is the delay on the scream at the beginning being panned from center to left then right. It has been really cool listening to all your takes on this! Thanks for sharing them with me.

Hey,

I know this thread's a little old now but I did a quick mix, if anyone's interested: [[url=http://[/URL]="http://www.box.net/…"]Tims Promises.mp3 - File Shared from Box.net - Free Online File Storage[/]="http://www.box.net/…"]Tims Promises.mp3 - File Shared from Box.net - Free Online File Storage[/] Thank's to the poster for sharing the tracks!

Does anyone still have the midi file available? The site seems to be down... I'd like to tinker with the drums a little and try different drumset sounds from AD.

Cheers!
Tim
