Dear Jaques, the mixture of "rumba chonta" I like a lot, but would try to give it a final mix eq, to "clarify" a little. Here I leave a suggestion in the following picture.

Thanks Fly!!!
Is really true when your ear think that some EQ is missing trust them..lol...
I made the final EQ you suggest me and it really help, I would like to go in the mix instead to go on my 2-bus to EQ but anyway sound better now!!! Also it let me understand that I can boost more on those bands in my semi-treated room thanks again Wink
All best

Hi Jacques,

that guitar, as hidden as it is, sounds great! I love it. The mix contains a lot of energy, but I think the EQ-boost in your second mix is a bit too much.

Anyway, good job!

Cheers
Artbass

Great job.

As we've been talking about panning, am I right in hearing that you let the marimba cover the whole stereo field? For me that would be a rather odd choice.

It does work though, so nothing to complain.
