Good one!
I like the natural acoustic tone of your mix.

Thanks Olli. I made some small changes to some guitar parts that were masking the vocal in a couple of places. No mastering plug-ins used.

Thanks Mattie, 

My setup is pretty basic. I use an SSL channel strip. This was the UAD light version but any will do. Then a compressor and limiter. A comp. with an attack and release adjustment is important, like an 1176 or Waves R-Comp and then an LA2A or LA3A limiter or a Waves L1 to tame the peaks. I had the UAD SSL compressor on the stereo bus (light version). Slate also makes a good version. I start with an overall balance then work on the vocal and massage my way around the mix with EQ and dynamic control of each track always referencing the vocal.  Speakers: NS10, JBL LSR305, Sony V6 headphones. Appreciate the listen.
