Amy Helm & The Handsome Strangers - Rescue Me (Hein-Ivan Mix)

[heinim]

A nice singer and a good song. Hope you like it!

V2 some changes!

Getting the mandolin present in your mix like that is admirable. I struggled with it for quite some time in my mix. I hear an influx of hi-mid in your mix. I think bc of it your mix is less punchy and your instruments less defined, imo. The bass is nice but can use a bit more bottom (sub). I think the distorted guitar is a bit loud in some places competing with the vocal, holding it back. I think you can pan the guitar and the mandolin opposite; that'll make your mix a bit wider, more pleasant to listen to, imo. Perhaps by doing that, your guitar may not interfere with your vocal anymore without doing much. In my experience, I am more weary about top end in live recording than studio's. I spent more time cleaning the craps, but it helps hone my skills. And yeah, mixing live recording is always scary to me . Cheers!

Hi SonicTramp! Many thanks for the comments and I will use your suggestions when I'm doing another mix later on. Cheers!

New version V2 some changes!

Nice mix! Vocals are good. Perhaps a bit much of 60Hz on the kick.

Hi chuck moe! Thanks for the comments. I'll make a decision on the kick after referencing the mix in my car. Cheers!
