This is my sixteen year old daughter singing and playing the recent Rihanna hit Stay. I posted this for help with mixing. Dwayne and Mick stepped up to the plate and you can hear their mixes here http://www.musicianscollaboration.com/forum/index.php?topic=9974.new;topicseen

Steffen (Stoman) found exactly what I was looking for, so big thanks to him. 
Steffens mix is the one attached to this post.

First...that is one amazing voice.
Second...all the mixes have their merit.
I think my favorite mix is Mick's because i like how the vocals lay in the mix.
Although, i kinda liked the effect in Dwayne's mix (just might be a tad too much).
Of course Steffen's mix sounds very professional and clean.
Nice job everyone  ---  especially the singer.

I didnt care for mics mix much.

Mine isnt that great either and was a quick mix...My Pitch Cor skills need work.

Sto's is the best mix.

You chose the right mix.

[Dwayne Vincent]

No offence to Mic or anyone else however Stoman is good at mixing piano/keyboard related material.

Nuff said...

NOTE: I've only had a chance to listen on my phone so that's not really the ideal sound system. I should go out and plug it in the car and crank it up and really listen.
But like i said...they each have their merit.
It comes down to personal taste and not so much about good or bad.

[Dwayne Vincent]

I disagree.

Ive heard enough good and bad mixes to know the difference.

Anyway its not a big deal...its just a mix.

No biggy.

Forget the mix, guys - what matters IMO is that the young lady did an awesome job. Didn't she?

I appreciate all of the time spent mixing and all of the above comments thanks for listening.

What matters to me is that the crappy mix didn't get the credit.

I don't care what anyone thinks.

I meant what I said.

WOW, Bobby.  What a treat to listen to.  She is just getting better and better.  Soooo sweet and powerful, I love her style.  You must be very proud.  I could listen to her singing all day.

Thanks for listening Al,

[Tricia41]

Wow, she sounds kinda like Rhianna!

[CosmicDolphin]

Nice vocals and piano 

I only heard Mick's and Steffen's mix and I prefer the Steffen version. Funny how with only a couple of tracks you can end with quite different sounding mixes.
