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.
