This song is not in a battle


Our gifted Marino noticed too much compression in the first version. He was right I mistakenly had drum compression for the master output. As all the tracks were already compressed from the original recording, in this version I just added enough limiter to bring up the levels without saturating the mix. No further compression has been added. Let me know what you think
This is a link to the first version.

Perfect mixdown , in my old ears.
Anywhere you wrote , you´re using a ´yamaha PSR keyboard, if I remember correctly.
I´m using a ´MO 6`synth which is a complete workstation with a lot of orientalic instruments & percussions  
in high quality onboard. The arpeggiator generates more than 1700 !! arpeggios. Very inspiring tool.
16 track seqeuncer, step sequencer & more technical features ( too complicated for me )
Many HQ drum kits & patterns you can manipulate in any direction . Maybe you might think about to do the next step to expand your possibilities to use different sounds ( just an idea )

Yeah I do have a PSR, but have a Roland JV 1080 synth module that I put it through it, The sounds are amazing, I haven't done that much with it really, strings, horns, pads piano that sort of thing.
I will eventually upgrade my PC and go that route I think, although I read somewhere that you get a better sound from an actual synth, so I'll keep my options open

Nothing wrong with mature old ears

Thanks,  I think I must have been too wrapped up in the editing of it, don't normally produce songs in that way. I must have originally selected drum compression for the percussion, but did not allocate it to the correct channel.

In my observation the overall dynamics have improved in this mix, the instruments are more defined, especially the acoustic guitar, you can hear the subtle harmonics better.

Thanks for your observations M, your ears are the BEST

Lovely piece  Denis very atmospheric uplifting transported me and carried away
Your recording and production chops come to the fore  the recording of the guitars is perfect and your playing excellent.
I hope you are doing well and getting some of your music out there.
