Had a go at this song added a new mix better then the last one

BAlance are not bad but needs a ton of highpass filters in several tracks. Your mix is very crowded in the low and lowmids. Also highpass your FX to a certain point especially if they got a boomy feel to them.

Another thing is the master bus is clipping. you should take off compression and/or limiters off so you don't risk the smashed sound and clipping distortion.

          Thanks for you comments its was the limiter to much high passings needs more 

Hi john, well done your moving forward with you mixes. I would say listen to this mix what is giving you the biggest head ache and changing dynamics and tone etc is your use of compression, and mix buss limiting, as I write I just got to guitar solo, sounds nice.
If I can ask you to forget about compression for the time being except on your vocals because you cant be without it.
compression; will suck the life out of your elements if over used ; it will make the top end of you elements sound harsh,
it can change the length of bass notes, and make thing sound 2D. USE AS LITTLE as you can. ;also not every thing needs compression on it. The biggest and most difficult tool in the box is Compression, I know this mix will sound great and will move forward in leaps .
This is all said with encouragement, so get your hands away from that compressor.

keep on keeping on
