That’s the thing. The vocals are panned center. However they came in as a stereo bus with both sides of the bus panned L & R but the vocal tracks were panned center. I’m mixing through my console and the stem comes back with the pans far L and R but the tracks are centered in the DAW. When I reset the pans on my console to center it immediately made the vocals centered and louder. I have not experienced this issue working with stems before. I do have to tracks of the original vocal printed with different plugins on each one so I was wondering if I somehow did something to cause a weird comb filtering effect of phasing? I don’t really get it though. I may ditch the vocal bus and bring them back on separate tracks?^^^^
Yah I second centering the vocal and hopefully it will pop out a bit more. I think that will take care of the guitar on the left also
