Brad...your testimony is outstanding and encouraging...though a great price was paid on your behalf to gain it...this song is cooking now...bluegrass music expresses joy with such a light, energetic fervor and feeling and you nailed it here...if I could offer a few more suggestions and these are my opinions and you don't have to do any of them:

1. I would bring up the banjo (just below the volume of the vocals) and bass (it seems faint to me) the bottom seems weak
2. I would add a couple of tracks with you literally clapping to mix with the Casio (the claps you have don't seem realistic to me) the more the merrier
3. If you haven't I would add some reverb to the whole mix to put it all into a nice room environment (the mix seems dry to me)
4. Envision all your players on a stage and arrange them there like a BG band would...don't move them unless to move them to the middle when they solo...BG players perform on one center mic a lot.

What version of BiaB are you using if I might ask?

I hope these suggestions help rather than confuse things...I love it when people suggest things for my mixes...I don't always change anything but sometimes I have found that a tip here and there really helps improve the quality of the mix and thus helps me improve the impact of the song...love the song! Dan
