I reckon you could round off some the guitar sparkliness (which is making it feel a bit too upfront anyway to me), and give the piano a little more of that action so that it gives a more hi-fi tone subjectively.
I have to say I'd probably use a bit more delay/reverb in general if I were after a Nashville sound. In particular I'd try to sneak in a bit more warm plate for sustain, and maybe a bit of subtle Lexicon-ish room to blend and widen things a bit more.
Hi Mike,
Thanks for your honest review, as always. I get what you mean when suggesting lifting the piano subjectively to the guitars - in hindsight it will go a longer way towards the warmer, crafted style I was aiming for, as would the suggested ambience. However, I believe that any such ambience treatment would have to be filtered to the mids, say up to 2.5-4kHz to retain the lushness without making it sound too awash with reverb...?
Thanks again, and cheers!
