Funny thing about this one was, I am a 60's Child and I mixed it old school in the box which was not a lot of fun. Wow! how we miss the old time sound but got to love modern digital mixing, never got off my butt to turn those knobs.
Amen!

Greetings fellow 60's child, I am like you I much prefer the digital mixing domain, Old school is not bad as long as you don't have to edit tracks much. This was a great piece of instrumentation; thanks for sharing!

The folks above said it....but I like the way things build and, wow, what a choice and mix of RTs. Really nice.
Hey, I mixed and spliced tape in the 60's. I found it even at my much younger age to be TEDIOUS. Particularly doing those backward guitar things.

Hi Digital Angel,
Great stuff! Like others before me, I really like the way you develop the arrangement and the emotional contour of the overall dynamics. A terrific listen.

Hey thanks for your ears. I've been trying to pay attention to the bottom end in my music, which is were the emotion really is. However, it can be tough depending on the instrument groups used.
In this song the drums have a pretty big reverb in them so I worked on making a special folder of Drums with the Audio Ph... Ver of drums .wav instead of the .wma ver that came with the new ver I have (2014). At anyrate, trying to gate the RT drums didn't quite work the way I wanted so I played around with the lower eq and removed some of the reverb that was present.
There was the limits of eq back in the days so to pull back on the 20-20 was a tricky matter. As you do the mix starts to sound well (60's) hence the title of the song, true to the era! Panning was also big as mono signals was all the rage. It still is but with all the toys we have why not break the mold and do what you please.
Until our next breath see you soon.
DA...

As has been stated, a really good use of mixing up the RT's. Nice sound. Very much enjoyed it.

HI Da...
What a super groove! We love songs that build in layers, a little at a time. And Minor Blues songs are so ripe for that. And when the electric piano came in, this thing just flew of the charts! The distortion guitar ain't to shabby, either!
Very nice, indeed! Best to you...
