Hi Soundgymers. I’ve had a lot of work this week and haven’t been able to invest too much time in the soundgym mix. I usually do different mixes and finally choose the best one. This week I did a single quick mix that took me 2 hours which for me is very little time. The song is very beautiful and very well recorded, although I got a little lost with so much drum and bass tracks and so few guitars and voices. At first I had thought not to publish this week, but finally I thought it was also a good idea to hear your opinions in a mix I did in a short time and in a more intuitive than rational way.I think it has stayed a little stronger than -14, sorry but it didn't give me time to fix it anymore

Hey Enric, nice mix!
I really like the sound of the acoustic guitar which almost sounds like a 12-strings
Great overall balance IMO, the whole mix may have benefited from a little lift on the choruses maybe ?
Very good result for a 2 hours session, well done :)

Sounds great Enric, especially for how quick you got it together! It's hard to give feedback on something that was done quickly because I feel like most of the problems would have been sorted out if you had time, but if you want something I'm hearing right away, I think there's a slightly boxy/nasally tone on the vocal which I don't remember being a problem in regards to the original track, so I'm wondering if there was a boost in the 800-1.4k region. Or maybe it was the reverb/fx you used that brought it out, hard to say for certain.

Hey Enric, I agree with Ben on the vocals, the snare on the verses needs more volume and the lows are a bit undefined for me, nice mix! ;p
