Cool tune. Lots of issues with mix. Agreed that main solo guitar is either just over distorted, or maybe you have a saturation plug on it? Also the cymbals are really friggen harsh as well. One suggestion, forget about the 'stereo width' thing. I have yet to hear someone use one effectively...

Good day mate! :)

Naw man, that is not fair nor is it true. The comparison between a ART MPA II and a Neve 73 is not a competition in any way. They are two different animals. It is more about the sound you are looking for. Personally, I had a MPA and it sounded to me like an 80's ADA guitar preamp giving...
