Hello and thanks for your thorough review. Ill try to address it in order.
De-essing is something I never learned. The person Im usually mixing has marvelous "s" sounds where I never need to compress. I tried to fix some of the harsher "ess"'s but it just squashed the vocal too much.
I think I agree with you on the amounts of reverb. At least for the vocal. The guitar at 0:48 is so heavily distorted and I couldnt make it sound better. Maybe I should reduce the reverb on that part alone.
Yes I configured the reverb for the "full mix" and used it through out the song. Maybe its also something that I should look at.
Pretty much every track in the song is automated to "enhance" the dynamics of the song.
About the arrangement changes: I didnt want to change it per say, I more tried to improve it. The song was slowly getting "harder" and "harder" but I thought the transitions could be better.
