Here is this weeks mix
Ghostly Beard - Fool

https://www.dropbox.com/s/p3rfomz1krknm4b/FOOL%20mix%20JM%204424.wav?dl=0

Kept in simple . Added parallel compression the whole mix to add more body
Had fun with some auto- panning on the hats to add movement .
I didn't use guitar 3.

general light compression on instruments and vox

stereo delay on the acoustic guitar to add a little width.

had fun with pitch shift!

Light room reverb on the drums and again on the whole mix.. but eq;d out the low end up to about 400hz

hope you enjoy :-)

Always look forward to hearing your mixes through out the week!

The relative balances of instruments sound OK, but I'm personally not very much liking the bright sounding mix. It feels as if the low end has been rolled off on everything and it creates a "phone" effect. It kinda feels like it's coming out laptop speakers.
I like the pitch shifting creativity :)

Hey Jeremy, as Raymond said the mix is too bright and lacks body.. Cool vocal effects!

Hi Jeremy, I agree Magghy and Raymond, sounds phone style, I need more body,
A wider frequency range will make it sound fuller. The pitch effect in answer voices is very fun.

Hey @Jeremy Munns , Very creative mix. I like it, my thought would be to relieve the listener by opening up the choruses to be full range. That contrast would sound huge!

Hi Mark. Full range frequency wise you mean?
