Just taking in your mix on headphones (HD650) and it really sounds sweet. Vocals are beautifully treated in particular.
About the only thing I noticed was that sometimes the guitar competes just a bit with the vocal. I think the decision to centre pan it may be the reason. I wonder if pushing the guitar out to the side for the verses and choruses and bringing it back centre for the lead sections might be one way to deal with it...
Or even leave as is but trigger some sidechain compression to bring the guitar down a tad when the vocals are present.
Great mix!
Hey Fytakyte,
Thank you for the kind feedback. That’s a really good idea to pan the guitar a little bit out of the way of the vocal. (and the guitar ducking) In hindsight it seems like a no brainer, I guess that’s why it’s good to get a second pair of ears! Thanks again.
Dave
