Thank you Niels for your suggestions! don't worry, I don't change things because people tell me to.
When I get any advice or suggestion, I try what they tell me and compare it with my first mix decision. If I like it better, then I change it; if not, then it remains the way it was.
Somehow by applying this way, I've learned how to get better sound and mainly balance, which was one of my biggest flaws when I started mixing!
Anyway, I have to agree about the timpani... I could hear them in the first mix but they lacked the presence they deserve. I've tried to fix that and I think they're better now.
Also, I've carved out 1 db on the 2,5k vocal; and also the snare has been pushed a little bit back.
Thank you again for your help!
