Hi, what a cool site/community here. Looking forward to practicing mixing with as many of these tracks as I have time for.
I'm a musician and have done basic stereo recordings before but never had an opportunity to mix so this is a treat.
I spent the better part of the day tweaking things and I'm happy with this one for now. I found the upright bass and snare to be the most difficult to shape the way I wanted. The drums are still a little thin for my liking but as long as the rhythm is present I prefer to hear more bass than toms/bass drum. At least for today.
Would love to hear what others think.
Thanks!
Version 2: More narrow piano, little more bottom to the bass and less of the slaps.
Version 3: Bill Evan's recording inspired panning. Bass halfway left, Piano (no longer narrow) halfway right.
