Thank you very much for your in depth comment azwayne.
I tried to change the mix according to your suggestions, though I didn't do everything with one single type of room but rather tried to change the settings in order for the signals to blend better. I practically never use any presets but dial in the effects to my own taste. Here I used the Lexicon LXP Hall on vox, chamber on guitars and the Eventide Ultrareverb room (1) on drums.
To my best knowledge and also according to the hands-on mixing course that I attended last week, it is completely common to use different rooms on different elements of a mix (as you also pointed out). Of course I agree that one has to make sure that they all blend well. I also agree that they didn't in my first mix.
I also changed some other things like the ducking-delay on the vox, the delay on the solo-guitar and the chorus on the rythm guitars. Hope it's better now.
