Overall mix and frequency balance is good, except for a hole in the 600 - 800 hz range.

That kick sounds killer. Getting that slap has been hard for me on this song. I'm missing it in my mix. Any tips?

I'd like to hear the snare a little more forward. I think it's competing with other tracks (overhead and vox?).

The toms ring through the first break at :33. I had to use a transient shaper and some heavy-handed editing of the track to eliminate it. Maybe the reverb on them is a bit rumbly too.

I like guitar solos in the center, taking the place of the vocal line, but the solos here are mostly in the sides so they disappear in mono, and don't stand out the way I like to hear them. It sounds like there's a lot of verb in the center channel. Maybe try moving that to the sides, and put the main track(s) more centered?

The bass runs from 2:03-2:15 are buried, but I wanna hear them! What can I say? I'm a bass player :-)
