Well I cannot A/B the mix from yesterday but I think what Rick said and you responding with some EQ adjustment makes the mix sound better overall. First, the opening acoustic guitar now sounds perfect. The mix also has more bottom and there is now more beef in the rhythm guitar. Almost the kind of chunkiness found in a nut filled chocolate chip cookie that I might want to eat.

I hear the bass clearly here now and wouldn't recommend much more. Neil does however have a lot of high end stuff going on which IMHO sounds good and not grating. I am listening through a finely tuned system with two subs, crossovers, mastering processors along with Apogee and Benchmark convertors. The engineer who helped me build this studio spent two months and at a great expense making my studio as accurate as possible with microphone measurement tests, etc.. He was an engineer's engineer. Your suggestion yesterday was dead on though *and* the kick and bass on "One of the Boys" is a bit louder especially the kick but please don't change that as it really seems to glue everything in that mix. "Second Life" has some birds chirping at the beginning but 5 seconds in becomes what sounds like annoying feedback. Neil I hope you hear that before you go to print. Let me know when your album is ready to purchase.
From: Neil Rutman on 2 Mar 2010 16:16 Thanks HIO. I actually put the feedback in on Second Life as an effect - but I will revisit that.
