Brennon Causey Mixing - 'The Calm v3'

[401kBC]

Hi!

Getting there.  I feel I might have given you the wrong steer regarding the drums... I just lined up your two mixes in the DAW with my mix and the library mix snare is a bit louder and has more sustain to it, thanks to the reverb, and maybe a bit more 6-8k, or something like that.  I think it was maybe the snare that had me thinking the kick and bass were a bit off.  Some of the supporting synth elements might be getting masked a bit at times by that lead synth too maybe? What are your thoughts?

Cheers!

Hmm the library mix does seem to have more energy with the synths when I listen to it. Its a great mix. I actually picked this song because I knew it was gonna be hard, since I don't really click so easily with it. I know I need to up the bell like Chorus Synth, and maybe EQ down the lead synth A little.. Do you think the library mix needs maybe something in terms of its direction? its super hard for me to judge this song haha

I will try to let my ears adjust before I make any decisions, I've been mixing through songs in the last hours
