Hi Mandubien,
I think I know where I've been going wrong. When I mix down my tracks to a wave file, I've been using them all, including buses. On my system it sounds huge. But I have found that after mixing, if I then isolate the buses and the master, I've got issues with my mix. I just caught this today, a guy assessed another mix I did on here and I revisited that mix and just stumbled across it by soloing the buses and master only, and I realized then I had big problems in volume, balance, and phasing issues too. So, with that said, once my ears heal up, they are toasty from all the mixing I've been doing the past week, I will revisit this song and apply my finds and see what happens. My ears were probably fatigued when I pushed the gain on the shakers, I'm hearing it for sure now. Thanks for the advice, I appreciate you taking the time to listen to it. I will re-post my new mix once I get it done.Take care.
