Hi everyone,

This is my first ever acoustic mix so please let me know what you think. The issues that I think I've identified are:

- Rubbish vocal automation (this was an experiment with a fader ride plugin) and as a result are too loud in some places and too quiet in others
- Upper mids don't sound as smooth as I'd like
- Found it tough getting the vocals to sound warmer without it going muddy
- Too much tape saturation (although I think the lo-fi sound suits the track)

...but I'd be interested to see whether you come to the same conclusions!

Best,
H

Instrumental is pretty nice. The vocal doesnt really sit, that is stick out really, otherwise good work.
