Default "burn that strat" remixed...please listen

Hey Ya'll,

Thanks for your input and I've made a few tweaks according to your suggestions. They are as follows:

1. Brought the bass up a bit. Brought up the hi hats & the highs overall.

2. Put some reverb on the drums.

3. My own additional tweaks: Added compression on the drums and bass.

Please lend me your ears once again. I think it sounds "stuffy" and the overall gain is lower compared to the first mix, even though my meters were peaking.

I'm learning.......

Are the drums panned to the right?

I don't think I care for the boosted highs in the drums. I remembe them sounding good, just dry, before.

I'm hearing a lot of boom in the kick drum. I'd make sure you are using a high pass filter on your EQ.

Ok, Brandon.
Please give this one more listen and critique the mix.
I'm finished with polishing this turd.
Thanks!

ps. I thought I had the drums centered. I'll double check that.

Much better. The drums are "more" real, but still sound programmed. I am not sure that really matters though. Overall, I'd call it done.

Yeah, I'm done with this one. Still working on the programmed sound of the drums. I've noticed that also. Thanks for your help.

Yah, go ahead and move on, just keep trying. Keep programming -- you'll get it eventually
