Used stuff:
DAW: Pro Tools 10
Effects: UAD, Waves, PluginAlliance, Softube

I wanted to create an individual solid Rock sound with the full bandwith of modern recording techniques, effects and clarity.

BD: SPL Transient Designer to shorten the resonances, Studer A800, SSL-EQ to liften the high frequencies, Tubetech CL1B to get mor of the kick, Tubetech PE1C for the low end trick.

SD: A800, SSL EQ as high-shelf, TransXMulti to get more attack again, but only for the snare-hits not for the HiHats
-> Send to a parallel Aux Track with an SPL Transient Designer to get more Sustain

OHs: only A800

Bass-DI: Q10: Highpass to habe the attack, LA2A to get more of the attack

Bass Amp: A800

Guitar-Amp: Q10 as rumble-filter, and slight attenuating high-shelf, API 550B for the mids

All instrument-tracks are summed in an Aux-Bus and compressed with a fairchild in LV-mode (MS-Mode) to smash the band. The MS-mode makes the mix quite interesting in case of the stereo-image. You can hear it on headphones better than with speakers

Vocals: Q10 as rumble-filter, Tubetech CL1B as compressor, Twintube to get the vocals to the front, MaagEQ4 to liften the air-band and the high mids around 2.5kHz. The delay is the H-delay
No audio-data was copied for the effect!

To get the mix spacious, I used only the new Oceanway-Plugin on the band. The vocals reverb is a set of two different setups of Softube SpringReverb panned left an right.

Hope you enjoyed the mix!
best regards,
Christian
