Mixed 013 much better. EQed all the channels using the Voxengo spectrum analyzer as a guide. I can get a realtime visual of the eq and make adjustments.
Used the frequency ranges I found from Computer music. Mix is much clearer and you can hear a lot of things that were muddied from the original. The first had overwhelming bass that kid of took over the whole track. The Nylon guitar can now be heard during heavy section. Added some hard panning on audio.

Still learning how to mix but I think I'm heading in the right direction, well maybe. I didn't think mixing was this hard. You really need to grasp certain things I would have never learned on my own. The music industry loathes the internet but I think true musicians can really really appreciate the wealth of resources available to them with a click of the mouse. I think Trent Reznor nailed it on the head when he said that the studio isn't just place to record but also create music.
