Nerve 9-"Pray For The Rain" - Faders_up - 01-08-2017

V1: Clip Gain came in handy on this song for taming the breaths from the compression. It was deceiving, even though there's lots of space in the arrangement it was a bit tricky trying to get the drums to stand up without them stepping on the lead vocal. I tuned a couple of the BGV tracks where the singer held a note. Cheers.

V3: I took jeff42's comments below to heart and tried to open the mix up a bit.

V2: Small tweaks in the vocal. Changed from the SSL "Legacy" compressor to a UAD Neve 33609 for the stereo bus.

Sounds great to me! I especially like the usage of rooms in the mix!
The background vox could maybe a be a bit wider spread, but that's personal choice Smile

Great job!

I would take a look at long term dynamics: between versus, pre-chorus, chorus. Without variation the overall impression is that the song sounds rather flat; although a lot of the individual effects and vocal treatments are each good in their own right.

Thanks Jeffd42, I agree with you and did a remix (V3) to try to give the mix a little more air and depth.

Cool Mix I Like it a lot ,
One minor thing that pops out to my ears is at around 0.53 in the first Chorus is missing something maybe just the shimmering guitar needs to come up a touch .

Cheers Big Grin

Very nice mix. I love the snare.
A couple of observations: the lead vox sounds a bit too mid-scooped to me for this song. When it gets busy I think the compression is slightly on the overdone side, could it be probably triggered too much by low end?
Nice balance otherwise, cheers
