  Edit on 11/30 2pm
     Brought down verb on acoustic
     changed width type on acoustic  (it was sounding
      left sided) seems to be in center now
     Less comp on acoustic
     Cut 280 hz on left side by about 4 db
     added some mids and highs to mix
    
    

Jimmy, again you've hit the right formula! Truly a beautiful work of art :-)

You tend to have a little more reverb on your vocal but it seems to work really well giving the overall track a nice ambience.

The guitar level on the left seems a little louder compared to the right, may want to check the levels?

Jimmy, This sounds really sweet. I like the mix here, maybe a tad sterile as you are refining it but everything seems to be blended perfectly. Such a fine job. Really enjoyed it!

Jimmy,

I just listened three times (didn't hear the original) so can't comment on your changes. This is the second of your tunes I've heard lately, so you're obviously in the groove at the moment and you do very well at getting that nice clear sound - far better than me I might add, so it seems like I have no right to comment really, but I just thought that the strings sound in the background was a little too constant and distracts a little from your vocals at times. It sounds good at the beginning and the end. Just a personal opinion though, others better qualified than me may disagree. Anyhow, another good tune - keep it up, you know how it is......when you're hot, you're hot !

Jimmy, I got your pm although I do prefer you post/reply here :-)

Haven't had a chance to listen to your remix yet but I'm 100% sure it will sound awesome! You definitely have the skills, when you get an album released I'll be one of the first to purchase ;-)

Got to go cook dinner and eat, I'm freaking starving :-P

Take care!  All the very best to ya'  bro :-)

   Very cool tune Jimmy... Everything sounds great here...

  Thanks for the comments. After reading your
remarks I went back for a listen and found
that there were things needing working on.
I made some changes and mentioned them in
my edit notes. I'm really glad you mentioned
some things. Thanks

  Very pretty tune.  I would have liked an intro, as it starts abruptly.  Maybe a little sparkle on the vocal mix, a little kick around 7khz.

Reminds me a late 60s, or 70s, Byrds or New Riders' kind of thing.

Very catchy tune Jimmy.  You really seem to have found
your groove.

     I've got 9 tunes that I'm trying to refine for a cd.
I'll be glad when they are done so I can move on to
some different stuff. Thanks for the compliments.

   No How
   Another nice job, Jimmy.    Mix sounds nice and clean and round

   That's a good point about the strings. I couldn't
find a happy medium. It was not enough or maybe
too constant. Good strings are very hard to do well
though. I am giving the strings subject in general
a lot of thought lately so it remains to be seen
what I can come up with when doing string work.
I haven't found a string patch that is really super
either. Not that these strings sound bad it's just
that it could be better but I guess I'll live with it
for now.   Thanks for the remarks and compliments.

     Nice

      thank you

Very nice Jimmy. I really like this one. A heartfelt tune. Such a even flow to this.  Always that fine line between need and want 'eh?

Jimmy, I finally got around to listening again.  I liked it the first time and still like it now.  :-)  The words do ring true and you've sung them very well. 

jimmy, you have developed into one of the best singer/songwriters/performers, etc. here on this forum - or any other forum as far as that goes.

Excellent.

   Thanks. I think I've got one more song to hopefully make
a 9 song cd. Still a lot of work to do yet but its closer.

  Jimmy this is great. I like this a lot. Mix is nice, with a solid bottom and crystal clear guitar work. Vox outstanding.
....................
   Thanks. You sometimes mention some things that I may
need to look at so if this is in good condition then that's
a good thing

   Thank you. I hope that I can continue to develop
and do at least good if not better with new works.
Getting to a point of some standard of quality has
been a goal of mine. Now it's time to see how I can
maintain that and move forward too. Thanks for the
kind words.

   Another great piece of work that shows off your amazing talent as a musician and producer.  The clarity and depth of your mixes never ceases to amaze me. Fine work all-round as usual Jimmy.
.......................
    Words like these that you say are words that I want to hear.
Not to feed an ego but to see if I'm accomplishing something.
I try to do the best that I can and to see how well that I
can do something is a passion of mine in music. Thank you

nothing to say on the mix...sounds great...nice performance and a well crafted song

great job all round :)

   Jimmy,

I love the song/lyrics and your vocal. The acoustic guitar sounds great as does the entire mix. Outstanding.
................................
    Thank you. I hope to achieve quality in the overall concept
of writing and the whole recording process.

     Thank you. I try. And I always try to do good so thank
you for that.

    Still sounds great but I'd like to here more E Piano, and the guitar sounds panned a little too far right... Cool song...

      After reading your remarks I worked on this and
worked on this trying to do what you mention and it
worked. I remixed and made so may changes. I made
the Mp3 ready to re upload. Transferred it from cd to
new the other computer for soundclick.

  Compared the last (one you heard) to the new mp3
Dog gone it! it was still a touch right side on the
acoustic and the rhodes lost a bit of sparkle. So
I said the heck with it and did not re upload.

  As a wav the things you mentioned worked. Mp3
really destroys imaging. I'll keep trying to find a way
to at least compensate for that somehow though
so thanks so much for the mention of that.
