James May - Hold On You - Luc van der Stap - 26-08-2015 Beautiful song! Some issues on both snare track and OH track. (OH track volume dip somewhere 2.00 minutes) Corrected the "pfffound" on the VOX track at about 1:37 (compare with uncorrected versions) Not entirely satisfied about my mix yet. Cheers, Luc ------ Update: Final version added in this thread and below in the replies. Completely new mix, as exercise I gave extra attention to 2 back vocal tracks, based on the original lead vox track. I think that went very well Cheers, Luc RE: James May - Hold On You - Luc van der Stap - 27-08-2015 V2 Slightly changed the mix (not the FX) cleaned the OH in sub low, adapted both kicks to compensate Acoustic guitars bit louder, slide a tiny hair lower. Cheers, Luc RE: James May - Hold On You - Luc van der Stap - 27-08-2015 V3 Study on adding back vox, added some bck vox Changed lead vox level Changed bass level OH level and kick front level RE: James May - Hold On You - Obelix - 27-08-2015 Backing vocals are nice addition on this song, but why did you pan them only to the right ? Pan them like this, lower harmonies narrower, but higher ones wider.

You are right for sure, the point is that I got "sound blind" while mixing too long without a break I think you know this phenomena too hahaha I will adapt your comments into a revision soon, expect a week or so. Cheers, Luc RE: James May - Hold On You - Nos - 03-09-2015 Like the BVs would be even better if doubled on other side. Nice balance And the difficult snare sounds pretty good RE: James May - Hold On You - Luc van der Stap - 04-09-2015 Final version Complete new mix, added 2 new back vox using another engine :-) Its been a nice case study to add artificial back vocals and try to bring the best out of difficult tracks. Cheers, Luc RE: James May - Hold On You - Memphis Black - 12-09-2015 Hi Luc sounds a great mix , really nice and smooth. I really like the extra vocals but for me they are a bit to forward and maybe drop them sometimes in phrases to add a different dimension. If they were dropped back a couple of notches as it seems to mask the music on my headphones. Acoustic guitar possibly could do with a little more centre volume as it keeps drawing me to the left , but that ,maybe as I am listening on my phones and there is no diffusion. awesome mix though, did you use outboard hardware ?
