What do you think? Is this too vanilla sounding:

I wanted to get a classic Exumer/Death Angel type of tone. It's supposed to be a little more mushy than uber tight. Whoreganic.

 

The drums have an annoying ride cymbal going nuts (its a mistake..It is ghost notes from the drummer midi groove that I accidentally turned from 2 vol to 100) but you get the idea.

 

Listening back, I think I over did the bass EQ on the bass. And on 40-50 seconds, it gets a bit too mushy guitar wise)

 

My idea is to have a tone where you can make out the riffs, but it does not fatigue the {censored} out of your ears like modern uber guitar tone etc.

 

The song needs a LOT of editing some pops and hanging notes etc. Usual lazy ass'd excuses. Sounds a bit blankety too.

 

I used a CM2 boost and g12t-75's.

That is cool! but yeah, it is a bit dark for my tastes...

 

 

Yep. This is the style of tone I was going for:

 

 

 

I think I got close..ish.

 

I think I need to ditch the EMG81 and use my stock LP Studio which has a lot more sparkle/character than the EMG's.
