Ah, that makes sense - then the guitars are probably the most likely source. As I said, it wasn't a huge issue, just something that I thought may improve things ever-so-slightly...
Your comment about the guitars got me curious, so I opened my project of the mix to see if I did anything regarding them. It seems I pulled out almost 2dB @ around 317hz on each acoustic guitar. (I say "around" because apparently the eq I'm using emulates the hardware it was modelled after and as such, the numbers on the dial don't necessarily reflect a completely pinpoint accurate description of the frequency being adjusted).
Yeah, I reckon thats what you might be hearing. I'm pretty sure I just high passed these with no other low mid cuts (ReaEQ). I was that impressed with Patricks acoustic sound I was loathed to play with it too much. My room and in particular my listening position within is somewhat compromised with an anti node that seems to affect 300-600hz range. Nothing major, but it does cloud my judgement in this area. I find I need to leave my mixes sounding a little woofy when they leave the studio. This is something that I'm starting to to fine tune though.
