Total Change

Sounds pretty darn good overall. Just a couple of things

I do like the high end on the vocal but I think it might be a bit too much. Especially how it accentuates any sibilance. I would dial it back some. It definitely works on her voice and for the style of music but it's bordering on overboard. At least try de-essing a bit and see if it helps. Also, when the vocal comes back in at the bridge there a brief amount of hiss that precedes it. I'd try getting editing out the space as close to the vocal coming in as you can and/or a quick fade in. Also the trail of the drums (I think) decaying into that section sounds cut. I'd consider fading that out a little faster.

There's a noise that comes in right before the first chorus that feels out of place. I'm not sure what it is.

The whole track feels pretty atmospheric, which is nice but I think a longer reverb on the snare might help move the song along more. The toms might be a little loud.

The solo is lacking. I think it should be louder and maybe some delay would give it more movement. It doesn't fill in the space when the vocal is gone. The lead at the end is a little better.

What I want most from the song is more dynamics. The choruses should soar more and be bigger. It feels tame right now which builds some tension but it'd be nice for it to go somewhere. Now I'm not familiar with the arrangement or what tracks you have to work with. It seems like it's pretty sparse so it might be hard to find something in there to build on.

I'd consider a slow fade on the song instead of going all the way to the end. but if you do let it go all the way it still needs a little fade before the silence. Maybe some delay or reverb to hang over and decay on.

Everything sounds pretty great. The main issue is the overall dynamics of the song. If it was able to get bigger it might add some excitement.

Thanks for all the info.

The noise is cause I am using the trial of mixbuss 32c .

I will work on the rest and repost.

Thanks again
