The guitar parts are so cool and creative in this track. Also the changes keep things very engaging!

thanks for listening OSHC!
i appreciate it.
yes, this was a child of the pandemic.
LOL
i had time....
a luxury i never have any more...
time to spend on inventing parts and boiling them down to exactly how i wanted them, and then try to mix it all!
LOL
, which of course, was the very hard part.
as it is, i always wanted to remix this, because of some masking issues i could never overcome,
and i just bought this new plug from Waves, Curves Equator, and i'm remixing this song right now, using ONLY the Equator as the only plugin on each channel.
instead of compressors, saturators, eq's, all that, just equator.
i'll post the example of this experiment on this song when i can finish it.

I POSTED the new version in this same thread,
so you could compare the versions,
between my standard mix elements, and using the Curve plug almost exclusively.
THE TAKEAWAY:
what took me several weeks of mix sessions, listening, fixing, testing, remixing, etc....
i did in one hour with nothing but this plug.
i'm finding that my attempts to solve problems with an eq on every track, a compressor on most all tracks, exciters, wideners, saturations, all that, became mostly unnecessary once the resonances of combined tracks were brought into control.
like, using a compressor, to tame an area i was hearing, now i no longer need that compressor, and the whole thing becomes more...
natural sounding.
now, i'm not finished tweaking the new mix,
but the point was, this was so much faster than my historical method.
and i'm all about saving time these days.
