Does this happen only with your own mixes or also with other songs?
Just play one of your favourite songs in the car and your studio setup and compare if there is a similar loss of high frequencies.
If yes, it has something to do with the setup in your studio.
If no, it is a problem with your mix.
There is also Ubuntu Studio that comes with the major audio production tools of Linux:

For me the main conclusion is still, that today every OS can be used for music production. In Mac you just have to invest more money but get a user-friendly system. Linux...
Obviously Linux is so much better than Win and Mac that it was not yet mentioned in this thread. What a shame. ;)
I am personally working on Linux. Especially on older hardware it is much faster than Windows. There is not so much choice regarding DAWs. I think Ardour is the only powerful one...
Wow, amazing! (y)
You don't happen to have the tabs for this? ?
And you have an interesting technique for the right hand with the pinkie always touching the guitar. Is there a special reason for that or is it just the way you are used to play?
Nice song. How many tracks does it have? I hear guitar, bass, drums, synth, at least 2 different voices, some fancy effects that fly from left to right and back (this really adds to it on headphones), ...
Revival of a 21 year old thread. That is something special indeed. :ROFLMAO:
Back to topic: No idea which famous artists used portastudios for recording, but I use a DP24 SD. So in case I become famous and record an entire album instead of few single songs only, you can add me to that list. 8-)
The bass in the original video has more high-frequency fuzz in it. Generally, your mix sounds very clean, what usually would be good, but it is not what I connect with Motörhead. ?
Sounds great! Not much to criticize from my side. 8-)
The end has a little bit the feeling of the Enterprise intro (that series with Cpt Archer from 2001).
For simple videos Shotcut is working as well. Features are somewhat limited, but it is free, open-source and available for Win, Mac and Linux.

Didn't listen to your song on headphones. On speakers it sounds normal. I noticed similar out-of-phase sounds sometimes when recording rhythm guitar tracks as well. For me it usually helps to pan the tracks not full left/right to make it disappear.
What about transposing the melody up or down or changing the instrument? Maybe use a variation of the melody by playing it with a different rhythm or in a different scale, ...
Or you add a slow passage (kind of like a breakdown) and then go back to normal speed.
Sounds good. (y)
Practicing some piece of Bach on the guitar myself right now (Prelude in D).
What is the tuning of your mandolin?
I guess your notes/tabs cannot be directly translated to guitar in standard tuning, or?
Here is another small composition. This time in E minor and with more tapping and sweep picking. 8-)
Also, I used a different tool called "matchering" for mastering.
For anyone who wants to give it a try with an own mix. Here you go...
