MerryGold (an exercise restraint mix)

[LightYearRecords11]

I did enjoy mixing this song. It was quick, and had a lot of great room content to mix and use for spatial imaging. I used my usual template with Slate VCC, VTM, VBC, and VMR with Waves SSL 4K E strips on all channels. I minimized the amount of heavy saturation I used on channels, and worked for a more delicate sound and ethereal stereo image with the vocals punching right through middle.

So I really somewhat mixed it like I would a pop ballad, but not as much punch and aggression.
