Thank you Nigel. We are glad you liked it. Although having mixed since the ‘60’s I’m admittedly still a work in progress and a believer that mixing is never finished just abandoned. smile FWIW there is considerable guitar volume shaping via an auto lane with fill tapers, a slight tag fade and 1-2 db bumps here and there. I do agree that solos and vocal leads are best at or near the same levels. Perhaps a “Janice Bias” smile results in my penchant for bringing her vocal more forward than typical. BTW, I did upload a very slightly altered version last evening with a 1 db drop on the vocal, an increase in the LUFs and a tweak to the multi-band compressor. Wonder if SC is over compressing it?? Dunno … but we three are happy with the mix. Thanks for your comment on Janice’s vocal and your mix thoughts.
