and my first upload to soundcloud. I would really like your opinions on the mix please. Be honest, but nice. I used the Eq on the prochannel, The Molot compressor and Limiter No.6 from Vladg sound. Thanks!http://soundcloud.com/clintmartin/sanctuary-wav

I think the distorted guitar(s) could be HPF @ 200Hz or so.

Other than that, no major crits.

This is a really nice, light, jazzy rocker.  Absoflippinlutely excellent and creative playing.  I love the little riff/hook that you return to after generating some heat with your lead work.  The mix sounds good to me.
Terrific stuff!!!

impressive guitar work. santana meets satriani with a little pat metheny. nice job on the sonar mix it actually sounds like you've been working with x1 for a while. maybe the bass could come up a tad but then again i'm listening on dt 770s phones. very cool.

Thanks! I'll try the hpf @200hz and see what I think. I believe I have the guitars hpf @ 40 hz now. This song was started on Music creator 6 untill I finally got SonarX1. I used it (and 5 others) to try and learn Sonar. Thanks for your input and thoughts, they are most appreciated. Hahaha I've heard the Santana thing before...I don't mind that at all!

Terrific jam.  The guitar tone is fabulous, and the overall mix is very tight and well defined.  You seem to have good ears which really helps with creating the illusion that the band is in the same room with me.  Bravo.

Thanks Lynn! I'm always concerned with my mix since my listening room isn't treated. It takes a lot of cdr's for me to get happy hahaha. I'm having a blast listening to everyone's songs on here (yours are great), there are a lot of talented people on this site.

Very interesting journey through your talents.

Minor crit both my ears and my meters tell me it is sightly right heavy.

Generally the mix sound good here with the bass sounding fine.

Thanks for sharing

In Sonar X1, how would I best fix the stereo inbalance? Thanks for the crit. I want to get better.
