Edited the sax part. I moved the drums around until I thought they sounded aligned, ignoring the sync click. They appear to be consistently early if I align them with the click.

Also bumped my mastering output gain up a smidgen.

seems to be well seated now.I must say your intonation is superb!

Wow. That is beautiful. Thanks for the polishing. Very nice.

Thanks. Autotune. I'm mostly a tenor player, so a few notes usually go astray due to a tenor embouchure playing a soprano sax, and a really cheap $200 soprano sax. I'll be the first to admit I have a long way to go to perfect intonation, so I spot-adjust pitch when it's really obvious, not the whole track.

I might throw this mix to the wolves at the recording project for critique if you don't mind. I sometimes post mixes there for opinions and usually get helpful feedback on mixing and mastering.

Very Nice! Thanks so much for fixing that, Marty. Thinking back, It may have been my cut and paste of the intro click. You're sax is wonderful...you're a Master!

This really sounds good guys. Marty youre ears aren't lying to you. This sounds fantastic. I listened to it through 3 different systems all sound comparable. The attack [pop] from the toms is the only thing jumping out at me.

Very nicely done. I am so glad to hear this tune coming back to life to be in a finished state.

Its one of those rare songs that sound simple but the underlying truth that it isnt and its made to sound simple by the masters playing on it.

I'm enjoying all of the positive comments.

Marty, I'm not familiar with the recording project, but feel free to submit this. I'm open to suggestions regarding any additional polishing. I am very happy with where this is landing. Thanks again.

It's already gotten a few good reviews of the mix as well as a very nice compliment for the drummer.

That is a nice compliment. I say, you're only as good as the people you play with... :)

Holy shit, this could drive me to tears of joy! Excellent job guys, you all put out some of the greatest tunes on this site, by far!

Thanks Felipe. I can't say enough good things about the talent that helped on this one. Some really fine work. Greatly appreciated.
