Hmmmmmmm. I’m not sure why you didn’t merely drop an M/S eq on her rather than deploy the Shenanigan.dll. At least it won’t make the voice unstable in the stereo domain. Posts above mentioned “balanced”, but I have no idea what they were listening to.
I personally find your mixmaster too wide. It’s a minimalist arrangement, and mono sources; too much separation adds excessive focus, eg rhythm gtr. Its role is surely not worthy of so much attention which you’re drawing to it. Is it perhaps your instrument of choice? It also puts big empty spaces between the performers (wide speaker placement really flags this up cf nearfields). In a wide arrangement, you are helping to aggravate the spectral disparity between the channels, which increases listener fatigue.
Mikaela has long arms in your mix (and most other threads), no?
