Upper Hand - HB Mix
#2
I think that's a good first take HB, but I hear a few things that could be better:
I think the acoustic guitars sound rather compressed. They are also very thin, I think you went a bit too far with the HPF on these! All in all, they don't sound too natural...
The ambiance on the drums is perhaps a little bit too much, although that's really taste related. But I think too much ambiance there made you thin out other tracks to make room in your mix that could have been used to get better tones...
The Rhodes is very loud compared to the rest, it's not such an interesting part, as I thought of them more as a pad than anything.
The FX track is very loud too.
Overall the vocals could get a little push, especially against the Rhodes.
I think your mix needs some refinement still, some level decisions in particular are perhaps not the best. Keep it up! Smile
