More observations: Terry's mix sounds (to me) like the music is coming from a small box while Roel's mix appears open (transparent) and airy. The other dramatic difference I hear between the mixes is that the bongo rhythm (which I found overly distracting) on Terry's original, were dramatically reduced (practically eliminated) in Roel's mix, allowing the side stick to be heard. I also notice that a (new?) drum track (which includes hi-hat & cymbal) has been added to the mix. I didn't hear it on Terry's mix. Reducing the bongo (timbale?) rhythm in the mix also allows the acoustic guitars to be heard better as well. My only suggestion for Roel's mix is that the bongos might be brought up just a slight tad so they can be perceived slightly more (but not too much). I've found this project both fasinating & eye opening. It's really nice to hear your talents 'brought together' like this. - Scott
