Sounds great to me; adjustments just right. I tried it on three different sets, earbuds, PC desktop (cheap), and the nice ones with subwoofer.

Just so you know, now that I've done the listen for our purposes here, the chorus of your song appears to be my 'earworm' for today--a good sign for a planned single...

Good song, nice singer still a little thin at my end.

Thanks for sharing.

+1 on the low end thinness; guessing it is somewhere in the 125-175hz range that can use the beef

I struggled to hear your singer during the verses when she is in her lower register. Add a nice vocal compressor on her and yo'll be set.

Huh.  Well, I'm going to hold off on adding any more, it's sounding pretty good here - I'll wait to hear what my mastering guy says before I add some more "salt" to the mix.

Thanks for the time, both of you!

Hey James,
What do you use for a "nice vocal compressor".  I seem to be inundated with options! LOL.
Thanks my friend,
Scott

  Nothing wrong with this mix whatsoever in my opinion. WOW!! This sounds so real where audio goes. So many times people try and use effects to change their sounds when they don't realize that the thing that sounds the best is right in front of them, meaning themselves and their music. I thought this sounded raw and real and really great!! Loved the tune, I also thought your band was really tight on playing the music. Great mix in my opinion, it was RAW and REAL!!! Perfect IMO.

OK!!  I decided to focus on the low end, because I realized my sub's connector was playing games.  I also adjusted my crossover.

What I did was go to my submix and increased about 130Hz down just slightly as James suggested. I also added a compressor to her vocal and did a little enveloping on the volume.  I think it stands out better.

I think it sounds way better.  Let me know what you think!!! Thank you ALL for your help!
