Silona - Learning How To Fly (mix 4.0)

Hi!

Thanks for the comments.

Yeah you are right about the esses. I did the de-essing manually, but I think I can lower them a bit more hopefully without it getting too lithpy.

Filter in front of the delay is a good idea too. Just stuck an eq in front of it and it works well to stop the esses pinging around so much, and cleans things up bit.

Yeah you are right again about the acoustic - it is a bit loud. I've just gone through and lowered it a fair bit for the verses and just a touch lower than it is for the chorus and about the same as now for the instrumental part. Yeah, I think it works much better and adds a bit more contrast.

I think it should be sounding a bit more distorted than it does, as it seems to be around -6.3 LUFs... Hadn't realised I had squished it so much. I want it to sound up front, but not quite that much! Yeah looks like I can back it off quite a lot actually.

I shall go through and do some tweaking and post another version tomorrow.

Many thanks!
