Hey Matt, thanks for commenting. It sounds to me like you're hearing what I was envisioning, which was a smoother, more fluid overall sound. I dunno how I missed the cymbal.... mix myopia is a sonofab***h. I'll have to try your modulation idea on the pads... I do that all the time actually, with a stereo vibrato on really low settings. Didn't think to try that here, though! Good idea

Thanks for clarifying CBR versus VBR... I was just operating on the default setting and never really looked into it further, since I really only deal with MP3 for the purpose of posting mixes here.
