Easy to listen to and first impression is - this sounds good. Then the drummer switch to ride and it suddenly sounds strange. My guess is the phase is playing tricks on you, due to the diffrent distances from the drumkit and the group microphones and the ride bein so loud and distinct it hits all mics.
If you are on mac theres a fine tool called phasenudge from airwindows, if on PC there are many and good ones.
I remember I had a hard time makin it sound fair and that I wasnt overly happy with the result.
Oh and theres a click noise around 0.29.
The piano is a bit loud and close for my taste, either turn the close mic down or give it some thinnin in the deep frequencies, either a locut or a loshelf, guess I would go with the loshelf as you can kind o tune the distance that way and I take it you like the lvl of it, so just makin it more distant would be the way to go.
Those many mix sessions can be a nightmare
What I did were usin the stereo pair as reference and phasealignin all other mics to that, so it sounded natural. Or as natural as I could make it ...
