apyssjw thanks, i appreciate the feedback. i’ve been messing around with panning hats a lot recently, trying out some different textures and such. i think i did more of what you’re suggesting on my album – duplicate tracks, side chain the fx to the main sound, and spread out the fx track – and i was just thinking last week that i need to go back to more of that. i’ve also been playing around more with using compression to change and create textures, but that’s another rabbit hole.
the mix was so easy on this one, i’ve never done less with a track at the mixing stage, it just came together like magic. that’s probably the difference between choosing the right sounds and good arrangement vs. whatever it is that i normally do. 🤣
