First of all a good mix starts with a good tune and performance.
This is one of those.
I had fun mixing this one. I know there is significant differences between my mix and the final.
My approach was to pull in all the tracks and mix it without hearing the sample.
I welcome coments and suggestions.
TIA.
Peace

Coool !
I'm still listening, the first thing i can notice is the compression on the snare, not transparent, pump too much in my opinion ...
I don't know the monitor (or headphone) you use, but it sounds like if you don't have enough low frequencies response on your system,
maybe you add +1 or +2 db at the rear of your speakers, you'll appreciate it and low frequencies will be more controlled, easier to hear body of the instruments without adding dbs on this part of spectrum.
I hope that will help you a bit.
Waiting for your next mix, i wish you a good mix !
Thanks for the feedback.
I use Sennhiezer HD 280 Pro headphones and Sonarworks Reference 4. I just realized it had been turned off for the mix. Looking at the corrected response curve I see it adds a couple DB to the low mids. DOH! I took the low end down a little with H-EQ.
The snare only has about 1 db of compression. I do have a gate on it with a long tail (Scheps Omni Channel). the Overheads were particularly difficult to control for some reason.

Maybe you can try without the gate, or i don't know if you compress on a drum bus ... listen to this, the snare is a bit too loud into the mix, but it sounds really good and more natural : http://discussion.cambridge-mt.com/showt...?tid=25333
