    Re: NO MIDS!!! ABSOLUTELY FRACKING NONE!

    ^^^ I rarely ever hear a band live that the drums and vocals aren't set way too loud for the mix.

      I'm so pie-eyed right now I couldn't tell a mid tone from a shmid tone. Sorry for yelling in the title, I tried to fix that but it isn't possib;e.

        This style of live mix has crossed over to recorded music, where the vocals and drums are way up front and everything else is in the background. It sucks !

          Amen. I want to hear the drums and vocals. I want the guitar to tear your head off and the bass to liquify your guts.

            For me drums and bass are the bedrock, the fundamental of the mix
            Depending on the style the guitar volume may vary but the vocals should always be the loudest thing in the mix.
            My favourite drum tone is Periphery
            My favourite bass sound is Tool
            My favourite guitars... a huge selection of Pantera, Death, Tool, Periphery and Alice in Chains
            My favourite vocals are Pantera, Tool and Alice in Chains
            Favourite mixes of all 4 are Pantera, Tool and Alice in Chains.
            Live though guitars should be louder or at unity with the drums and that’s a very thing
            Guitars:
            Daemoness Atlantean (unknown Bareknuckles) D
            PRS SE Mark Holcomb (Alpha/Omega set) Drop C
            ESP LTD EC-1000 FR (EMG Het Set) D
            Jackson USA WR1 Absinthe Frost (EMG 81/85) D
            Ibanez MMM1 (Blackouts) Drop A
            Ibanez RGIT20FE-SBF (Loomis Blackout Neck/Mick Thomson Blackout Bridge) Drop C
            Ibanez SZ320 (ibanez/duncan pickups) Drop D

              I prefer everything sit about even unless there is a ton of lyrics (like most bands, especially when the vocalist doesn't play a guitar/bass).
              If there is lots of lyrics and it's death/black/screamo/core style then I much prefer them to sit well within the mix, not out in front.

              Then there's something like Hey You by Pink Floyd where the vocals just have to be in front,,,,,totally different thing though.
