Thanks for feedback 
When I say "noise" I was sorta using the term broadly and liberally... there was some spill on some pretty significant parts that I was calling noise, and EQ's/denoisers won't touch anything like that without pretty serious negative side effects. Main issue is that I was trying for something to which these tracks aren't conducive... and rather than start over with a different plan, I stubbornly let a little hiss through on a tape sim. Tape hiss doesn't bother me and I kinda like it... but that's because I grew up listening to music that was recorded to tape before anyone thought to get rid of it. Sometimes I forget not to mix for myself (lol) but to mix for the market.
