Happy Days (Mix 2)
*

This song is not in a battle


Here's Mix One: http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/8815.html
I took out the Multi-Compressor - Used standard compressors on each instruments, hardly any on the drums, hence I believe sampled drums are more or less compressed and reduces the sound quality if used too much, so yeah, I'd say use compression with caution on sampled drums.
Used a different Guitar Rig pre-set for Bass guitar (fatter)
EQ'd Bass Drum,Overheads,Classical Guitar
Fine tuned levels

I prefer this mix, but I wonder what you think out of interest

I have both versions opened simultaniously in tabs and can compare directly......... Interesting.
The second  version sounds more airy, clearer, more harmonically / musically, more "tidy". Just the bass in the first version was a bit louder,? fatter,? prominent,? Though it cuts through in the new mix.
At the end itīs a matter of taste and preferations, I guess.
I personally like more the second one.

That would be great. I believe PRG here on the amp in Trumpeter, but hasn't been active on the AMP. As you know I'm selling my Trumpet, just don't have the lips for it. May be if I had time to practice it every day. With the Sax I can can play once a week and get a reasonable take, well I have to do about 20 takes on a recording lol. I'm thinking of getting a Tenor Sax again, the first one I got was hard to blow, there must have been something wrong with it as they are supposed to be easier to blow than an Alto. The Soprano Sax is easy to blow but harder to play in tune, because the reed is smaller, harder to control the bend of the read, which is how you fine tune. Pretty much like pull ups on a guitar and having the ear to hear when it's in tune.

Listening to this again ... having listened to it and the first upload, I do like this better, it's clearer thus louder and with more of the fine detail being heard.
Yes ... Denis the Music Machine who sleeps at the end of the month .... LOL ULI

And this is your reward ... you can create a song that is pure sun and sea

Or like honey ......
