David Tyo - Its So Easy To Love You - Mixinthecloud - 11-06-2019

This song has a ton of nuance and detail in it and it is no easy task to have all of them expressed well. In this first pass my attention was primarily to vocals since I felt it was the lyric which really carries this song. As a result there is a lot of automation on the vocals. I'm sure I could improve it but this is my first pass. I hope you like it and find it worthy of comment.

David Tyo - Its So Easy To Love You - Pass 2

Dynamics in this arrangement were difficult for me to express well. Wanting to keep the vocals dominant first and foremost (including harmonies) was still my primary concern and building the guitars through the song required a lot of automation. Adding the rhythm section and the piano plus the two banjo parts added to the complexity of keeping the vocals in focus and the dynamics building through the song. I believe this is an improvement over the first version but there may be some work still left to do at the end. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this new version.

Thanks,

Hello Mixinthecloud!
The second pass is awesome! I agree with your opinion that this song has so more details and express them well is hard work. But it is fun! In my version of this song I have so many automation, everywhere I thinkSmile.

Hi!
Excellent work on the Pass 2 version. In my opinion, I was just trying to increase the sound image and explore (increase) the low end a little more. By the way, I already had the opportunity to hear some mixes made by you I really like them Smile

Thanks for your kind words. I had a chance to listen to your Selwyn Jazz Ensemble mix, which is very good. I'd guess you've had some experience in that genre. It is crisp and present and full and open. Reminds me of Stan Kenton recordings.

I didn't know Stan Kenton's work (my fault...), but I went to research! By the way, thanks for your feedback.

If you want some of the best big band recordings look into Stan Kenton, Live at Redlands University.

Today I already had the opportunity to research and listen to some songs from Live at Redlands University, and it is a delight to hear those performance, arrangements and production, even 50 years later!!

Hi. Good mix. You have given it a somewhat drier approach than my mix, although I also like it. Great job.
