    Hi guys! I would really appreciate any critics and thoughts on my very first time ever mixed for public use. I am not doing this for any win (I know I have NO chance with hundreds of AWESOME mixes!)
    Me and my mom sang additional background vocals here. Only thing I think of is mayve reduce the volume on the guitars when the git and steel plays their solos. And I am not quiet happy with the reverb on the main vocals.
    Thank you so much and good luck to all of you!

    Sounds good for a first-timer. Nice idea with the additional bg-choir. You’re on the right way! Next time, send the vocals to a stereo-fx-channel, not mono. That will give the mix more room.

    Good luck to you.

    Thank you very much for your feedback!
    I got no experiance with separate FX-Channels but that’s a damn good idea!

    Nice mix for a first timer bro. I feel like the bass is lacking a little bit, also try compression in stages so the mix buss is not heavily processed. I loved your background vocals, very good production choice. Keep on the good workkk

    As a first timer, you did great!! Also, I loved your vocal production.

    A great reverb I use in all of my mixes is the Convology XT, by Wave Arts. It’s a convolution reverb and it’s free! It comes with very nice stock sounds and you can buy more on their website.

    Keep it up, man!

    Thank you Nick! I might just get rid of the multicompressor on the master, I guess that’s not neccessary for this song. Thanks for the feedback!

    Thank you @demode_iowa! I was really a little afraid of getting much critics on my mix but now I feel very justified!
