I hope everyone feels free to critique the mix.



I honestly wish I could Clint... Unless it is something blindingly obvious, in which case, you'd have caught it before you went live...
 
Sorry, but I will only ever to be able to say, "great guitar!" Or something equally as lame, but I at least want to say that, than say nothing...
 
cheers

I love this one, Clint.  Everything about it, mix, instruments, vocals and the feel of the song overall.

beautiful guitars, vocals I thought
could not get a mix this good, still making some suggestions purely hoping they help you.
the freqs under say 60Hz sound a hair quiet to my ears.
would take off a hair of the snare reverb tail/decay
would choose a simpler kickdrum pattern for the start and Sensing Sarah part, on 1 and 3 and then on 1 and 3 AND..
just a super simple rock pattern would be my choice to add some groove/dance to the start.
Would keep the current kick patterns for the parts the singer is.
Then for the Sensing Sarah part maybe hats and closing them befor 2 and 4 or someting.
Just to add some separation between the guitar theme part and vocal part, and to put an accent on Sensing Sarah and giving it something warm/special or so (maybe brushes, or some synth pad...or percussion..)
Really Great song !!!

Thanks for your comments Wouter! I'll pass them on to the drummer! Hahaha! This mix (mid) was High passed around 40hz. Actually everything was high passed at 40hz. The side was high passed around 140hz. The reverb on the snare was changed 20 times. I couldn't decide if I wanted it on the wet side or dry side. In the end I tried to find a balance with the guitars. I used Valhallavintageverb.

would swap the mid filter for a bell cut, if there's too much sub..
really like to try tweak this song (as a training for me, and maybe you'd like it), if you're interested please let me know.

It's a high pass filter split into mid/side.
I don't mind at all if you want to try and tweak the song. I currently don't have a way to send a wav. file. I can send the MP3 to play with.
I need to setup a dropbox account or something I guess.

Love the tune and performances. Mix sounded top shelf too.

AWESOME !!!  Will make sure you won't regret it....but it'll take me long unfortunately.
Don't have a dropbox account either, would be happy to send a memory-stick with a prepaid UPS or DHL return envelope.
Sonar project files or bundles, raw wavs (would be best ofcourse) or anyhing...would be great.
rgds,

Hey guys, just sign up for a free DropBox account! It works great for large file sizes.  You should try it.
