Nice song. I like your wife’s vocals. The mandolin(?) seems to pull this whole mix to the left and leaves it a bit unbalanced to my ears (could be to the right, as I’m listening on ear buds and I could very well have them in backwards, lol). Not quite sure how to fix it - maybe make it a little less prominent.

Good stuff.
 
She has an awesome voice. I will have to get this album! Another tasteful track. Nice mandolin playing.
 
Good song - nice vocals - I would like to hear her singing into a AKG C414 - I think the articulation would suit her.
 
Really like this one as well! her voice reminds me of Amy Grant a bit, great emotion and tone.
As far as the mix, the instrumentation placement would not be my approach but thats subjective.
You have outstanding music !
 
@DungBeatle : Thanks again! ?

@dachay2tnr : Thanks for the listen! I think you may be talking about the guitar(?), because that's playing almost the whole time and is panned quite wide I believe. I'll check it out.

@gecko zzed : Thanks! I agree about her voice. (That was me on the mandolin solo, by the way. ?)

@Papanate : Thanks. I actually have the WA-14 (Warm audio clone of the 414), and we really like it on her voice. I don't think it was used on this one, though, because I don't think I had it yet.

@LogicLover : Thanks so much! Regarding the panning decisions, I don't really have a go-to method, and I'm very influenced by other things I hear. I'll listen to an old Beatles or McCartney album in headphones and think, "That sounds awesome! I really need to do some extreme panning on a track." Things like that. ?
 
If you hollowed out the guitar a bit - just a bit less low mid to it - the vocal would automatically be more present, yes? Something to try?
Thanks! I'll try it out. ?
