James May: 'Eliza Jane'
#2
This sounds really good. Nice balances, and you managed to retain the natural sound while adding some clarity and a sense of space.

I couple of things that could be improved:
- The sibilance of the vocal is a bit distracting. You could try tweaking your de-esser or adding a slight low pass filter to the vocals.
- There is a bit too much going on in this mix. I would recommend muting the mandolins during some parts of the song. When mixing this, I found that mandolin 1 worked best as the "lead" and I only kept mandolin 2 in some parts. You should decide on one instrument having the solo in the middle. It's too confusing to hear the steel guitar and two mandolins with similar level. This mix is too balanced, so it's not clear where the listener should focus.
