the Oak Spring Stringband Project

Cajita 

I replaced 2 notes in the guit at 1:30 and 2 more in the measure following. In between the guit kinda drops out naturally so I left the rest as is - it ain't perfect, but when listening ensemble sound it is fine. I put a pitch correction insert on the guit track - this should fix the last note.

Tucson Gals 

replaced wonky notes on the banjo at 1:49 with some better ones. added exciter to mastering. 

Drop Thumb Blues  revised mix (R)

 I cannot find the Bad banjo note at 0:53. Youall are hallucinating.   

Skippin it

I extended the tag, but you may not hear much as the musicians all faded themselves out naturally

Henry's Botanist

I took the bass completely out of the meditation sections, but I couldn't get rid of it completely as it bleeds into every mic. I increased guit throughout, so hopefully this will reset the rhythm during meditation. I also considerably dropped the bass level during Henry's, but it remains substantially in the mix if you listen on a system with bass response (like headphones). I tried to get rid of the guit chord at the end of Henry's but the drop out on the left channel was REALLY noticable so I brought fid a bit into the L channel and reduced the separation between guit on L and banjo on R - then i faded the guit hit but brought up the banjo at the same time which now softens the guit as the the banjo "appears" to start the meditation earlier. Again, the bass still bleeds but hopefull

Morocco Blues

I replaced a previously muted guitar note, which sounded like a glitch, with another one from the following phrase. It's still a blues note, but, the name of the song is Morocco Blues. Duh.

Movin' On

The revised mix was done before I figured out the compression for the banjo - that's why it sounded muddy. So I changed the compression to match the other tracks. I re-did the feet compression to make it less "present" and dropped the track volume. I re-built the soundstage to pan the banjo opposite the feet, among other things. This was all to try and keep the feet. I re-mastered the mix and increased the effect of the stereo spread. This mix will be different from the one youall reviewed.

Sneaky Blues

Brought up the guit. Bass down just a smidgen. voc remains the same. Enjoy.

Heading to Mexico

Soo. I re-did the banjo compression to match the other songs. I added some EQ/compression on guitar to make it more present.I added a mastering track but with minimal effect.
