Thanks. I left it alone for a few days and just came back to it this morning.

The vocalist, who plays the guitars in here as well, asked me to turn up the guitars a little. Well I did, but after re-listening to it; yes, they're a hair strong in the mix.

Agree, on the kick. It's like the "whack a mole" game..... bring one element back into the mix and another one rears its ugly head!

It's one thing I learned though... tweaking one element (i.e., guitar in this example) affects the other elements (i.e., kick, bass, etc0 in the mix.
