need help with mixing a 80's power balad this weekend

Hi. I'm recording a song now and need it to be done till Monday morning. The problem is that I am not good in compression and eq. I guess the reason is that my hearing isn't 100%. In fact I don't hear well on my right ear and my left one is the only one I can rely on. Kana someone help me this weekend? It is not many tracks. Vocal, dums, bass, piano, pad, strings, rhythm guitar and lead guitar. I hope I am done with vocals on Thursday. I do everything so this is just not that good. And I don't want it to be published here or anywhere before I want it to. I will give you a pm with link to the project. I guess I make a *.cwb file.
Anyone interested?
Answer here and I will send you a pm.

    send me link when available, do you want the mix like an 80`s mix with heavy reverbs and big drums or mix it more to today`s standards.

    I have help now. But I was thinking of a middle road. Big drums and modern sound. If you understand. The reverbs of today sounds soo much better than the ones in the 80s. And the approach of making music was cool back then. So I would think, use the best of each worlds.
    What if a great band from the 80s had todays home studio equipment, for one record back then. What crazy things wouldn’t they make. With as many tracks as they wanted. And as many FX and sounds as we have in Sonar X3 Producer.

    Mixing is my weakness, among others. I would like to try just to see how I do compared to your final mix. I've had a comment before on using comp and rms and still don't know how to do either one.  capg
