Pedaling Prince Mix: Secretariat - Borderline

[Pedaling Prince]

Again a wonderfully realistic soundin mix of yours.

Some suggestions:
As mentioned - the OHs are full left right, narrowing them some gets a thumbs up from me

This is the only one of your suggestions here I decided not to take; the OH has the snare far right and that's where I'm keeping it since that's evidently (based on the OH recording) where Secretariat wanted it.

In verses you could turn acc gtrs down a bit to make chorus bigger.

More dynamic range. Happy to oblige there. Automated the acoustics a little. No dramatic change but I brought them up and down by a dB or two as appropriate.

Try ridin the vocal fader or compres him a bit harder, some words nearly disappear. For one: is the american dollar strong enough to buy a young man a - eh what ? drink ? last word disappears.

Compress?! Now you oughtta know me better than that by now... I automated to vocal level just a touch; didn't want to spoil that nice, natural vocal sound.

Agree the wet solo comes as a surprise - either make it dryer or spill some water on the rest o the mix (I would suggest the first option)

Actually, I have been meaning to add a little more reverb to these vocals for a while now. So I did; that should fix the problem.

I like the sound of the acoustics a lot !

Yeah, me too; love a good acoustic guitar recording.

So, what do you think now...?
