what do you think?

wow... that's alot of reverb! i think maybe if you took reverb off the main synth, and toned it down or took it off the kick, it would sound great.

agree

don't forget, the live settings these kind of tracks aim at (big rooms/halls) produce hall effects on it's own already.
If you like to go for that doomed kick I would choose a shorter tail (possibly gated, plate) and blow that up a bit with a Vinco or another compressor.
How much different reverbs did you apply in this mix by the way?

True, it sounds live already. I love it.

hey thanks for lots of response!

yes I used much reverb, to make it sound large and aggressive....

I used around 5 reverbs with differnent settings....

I aggree that for live purposes this may be too much reverb.... for sure....
basically I wanted a nice listing experience with room speakers and headphones...
and yes I somewhat wanted that "live sound"...
