Hi!
Thanks for checking it out. Seems a while ago since I did this one.
The horn section is on the left in the room though
I only just checked the video but I tried to figure it out from the O/H and room mics when I did the mix. Tricky though as it turns out the drums were set up opposite the rest of the band, which is why I think I got the guitars the 'wrong' way round. I could may be have panned the male vocal slightly left and the female slightly right though.
I alway try and 'recreate the room' with the mic's from these more live sessions. Also I listen to 50s/60s jazz too so 'odd' panning probably doesn't bother me so much. I do take your points though all these same and appreciate the comments. I have done some more left-center-right panning of a horn section more recently.
The library mix is 7.7 LUFS, so I wanted to be in the ballpark. I personally feel 8-9 LUFS is fine for this. I find a half decent mix is easily able to get to 8-9 LUFS without any special effort as such.
Cheers!

Just uploaded a mix/master? Waiting for comments? Why not give back and critique a mix/master, or two!
