@DeShaun Rawlings @Phillip Patterson huge thank you for both of you listening to this track and your recommendations. Very valid comments. Right now the export of the Ableton project is running to start the import and mixing in Cubase (takes for ages). Sure, I will try to clean up the mids, low end, fix phasing issues (hopefully). And try out the reverse risers idea, lets see if I can make them fit in... If you don't mind, I will send you the most recent and my best try/version then😀🎹 Cheers so far, and have a great evening (I am very busy these days, that's why the answer took a while). Musical regards, ReinfriedB

@Phillip Patterson this is a very valid help, ear breaks! I am fallen into this trap nearly always, even if I should know better... Thanks for reminding me here. Time is so short, so it's hard to break, but this is so important!! And also, I am listening/mixing probably also a bit too loud. Even more ear breaks are needed.. 😀 For tonight I stop anyway 😉. Will try to do the techniques you described initially. Well, there are about 50 tracks. A lot is happening especially at the end right now, within the newest version. I kind of like it this way😀 hope I can handle the mixing decently.. but will take a while..

@David Harrison Hi David, thank you for listening and writing your feedback 😀. I appreciate it. Kind regards

@Niklas Kenez Thank you very much for the detailed explanation. Makes totally sense, and that's a great idea to have some instruments more present.😀 I am at Istrien, Croatia, with my family right now, and wrote another track. I already tried it a bit of your proposals., but still I am not in the mixing process, well... it actually goes hand in hand when I am composing/arranging..😉 Well, should give the track away to somebody I guess. Would you like to listen and share a bit of your feedback again? I would highly appreciate it again.
