Hi,
I am mixing a little classical guitar number for my friend. I have done two mixes. Please tell me which you prefer and why (classical1.mp3 or classical2.mp3).

Thanks for your help,

I'll give it a try ...

Mix 1 has more hyped bass part of spectrum(tube mic(s) or relative close miking?) and seems more compressed; mix 2 sounds more natural to my ears(frequency balance).

However, mix 2 seems to have too much ambience, mix 1 is better in this regard.

Both recordings are a bit noisy(venue was noisy at the time of recording, perhaps?), and Mix 2 seems to have slight bell-tree like modulation in background(noise reduction side effect?)

I would try not to use master compression, if possible.

Cheers!
