Pat,
SEE MIX BELOW - uploaded below . . .
I did something crazy! I used that bass midi file that was included in the package and I used it with the Scarbee Electric Bass virtual instrument (which I think is the best bass virtual out there). I also rolled off the beater frequency but kept the kick kinda loud especially now because there's an electric bass in there. :-)
I know it's crazy because your song has now taken on a whole different sort of feeling. I did it for the fun of it and to continue to learn. I could not use your electric guitar1 track because there was some kind of clicking in there....don't know if it got corrupted when downloading....tried it twice. Anyway, I used my modified guitar track from my first mix (above) but I tried to make it sound as close to what you had as possible with a ping-pong delay and long reverb. I didn't make it louder during the chorus because it seemed to take over the song and overpower the vocal in the sense of the vocal being soooooooooooo important to me in that part.
Anyway, I think this mix, overall, is much better balanced and cleaner even though there are tons of effects everywhere. Again, love the song....I really connect with it and that's why I'm doing all this crazy stuff with it. I know you have in your head what you are looking for. And, what's great about this site is I get to hear all the different interpretations of songs from everyone. Each person has their own way of approaching his/her mixes and it's all fascinating to me.
Peace. Tom
