Hi Juanjose ,
Nice solid mix ,sounds great on my monitors ,the vocals are very dynamic and jumping out sometimes around the 1.3-2k area.
A little dynamic eq will tame them ,Here is a quick screenshot with some dynamic eq catching and taming the vocal transients of course it works better on the individual tracks .

thanks Don!! I've seen that you also have Nova. I use that dynamic EQ all the time and it works pretty well!! I'm going to check on those frequencies and see what I can do!!

update: here's the mix after checking on those frequencies you mentioned.

Sounds great and organic

I like those live drums.

Vox has some sort of room resonance in low mids. I wonder if it also has a bit too much reverb. On the other hand it’s very live now in a good sense.

Horns are bit shy.

Solo guitars conversation is not equal yet.

I use also Nova on every mix. Actually I probably use evertyhing from TokyoDawn.

Thank you for your comments, Olli. I've checked those low-mid frequencies and I think they're under control now. I've also worked on the guitars dialogue together and also made the horns more present in certain parts.

Thanks again!!
