I started this project Saturday night and worked on it through yesterday. After 5 iterations, I believe I'm satisfied with the mix. I mastered it at -12 LUFS-I to keep dynamic range. Comments are welcome.

Only 5 ??? LOL. I'm at 12! Cool guitar treatment. The Ooohs section, while worth emphasizing and is in your mix, but it buries the lead to the detriment of the section, I feel. I am also sensing vocals being a bit bottom heavy which doesn't sit as well as it could against the good guitars. There are a lot of moving parts in this but you've got some great sounds.

Thanks bunches, MITC. Yeah, last weekend it was 5, I'm not even sure where it stands now after trying different things during the week. I'm pretty sure I've gone to at least 12, and I know I lowered the "ooohs" just a touch. The level issue there becomes more apparent on small PC & iPad speakers. The guitar "treatment" is just EQ and saturation.
