  Speaking of young Darren, might we hear a sample of what you do with stylus 
that drum machine from spectrasonics?

    lol, I love the compliment of being classed as young.

    But I'm in my 40s, so know what the older mixes sound like.

    I too don't like mushy mixes.

    Cheers
    Darren

      No, it's just how we grew up hearing things mixed.  You and I grew up 
with lead instruments truly out front as if at a concert.  Younger listeners 
are used to the mushy big glob in your face mixes of today where it might as    
well be mono unless something pans for effect.

        Thanks all I thought about turning them down abit but I'm not sure. I 
am a guitar player and tend to like em out front maybe a bit to much.
        I used trilogy for the bass, true piano wide for the piano, 1 instance 
of omnisphere to do the melody an octive up,
         could have used real guitar but I like the sound. I also used 
omnisphere for the stuff in the intro and a bit through out the song. A patch 
called city slumbers, one called Across the sky, and finally one called gently 
crushing eternity.
        For the drums, I used smart loops mediam straight rock this time.
        I also like drums on demand a lot.
        But the smart loops seem to fit this one.

          I know what you're talking about with regards to the panned guitars. 
I think, though, that if he turned them down a bit they would blend in just 
fine.

            It kind of reminded me of Jo Satriani if he was trying to do 
country.

            Nice guitar harmonies.

            Wanna give us a run down of hwo you put it together?  Which soft 
synthes, plugins etc.

            The only think I wasn't sure about was the separation of the 
guitars, it kind of made them too separate from the mix, as if they'd been 
added on later.

            cheers
            Darren

              I just did this today in the studio and liked the way it came out.
              Just thought I'd share.
              I think if you click on the link below it'll take you there.
