    Good job. Innovative choice of lead sound.
    The only flaw I see the choice of the sound starting at 2:22. It sarts way too loud, stays a bit too loud and is somehow a suboptimal sound for its part. The sound itself isn't bad, for me it just doesn't work good (too much lows, wrong pitch?).

    Yeah that motherfucker got thicker after mastering.Maybe it needs a little bit of treatment.

    I experienced several times that it's useful to do a pre(view) mastering during the mix to see how the sound will probably react when limiting the sum. The ordinary DAW limiter in main output will do good enough.

    I do that actually i can't mix without knowing how my track will sound when mastered.But it's not some big chain it contains only a limiter often Fab Filter Pro-L.Nevertheless i think that the synth it's not placed as it should,maybe i'll try some sidechain or maybe i should lower the volume of the synth.It may be the cutoff filter from the synth,maybe i am opening it to much.The weird thing is as i listen sometimes i like it sometimes not.:dunno:

    I would tend to the opposite and make it brighter. Reduce low freqs and pan it more to the side. That's what I would at least try.

    I don't hear anything wrong in your mix except the main "bell / fluttery" sound you've used for the arpeggio which has harmonics that bothers me, it leaves - but that's just my opinion - a whistle in the ear I don't like
    but, if that's how you like it, it's your choice :)

    mastering preview shouldn't be of importance before you end your final mix.
    if anything is wrong, you'll hear it in the bounce of your final mix; Mastering - if done properly - won't screw-up something that's not already there.

    good job, keep going

    That's the problem. It is there but you don't recognize that it doesn't fit in one way or another - until you push it through a limiter.

    Yeah that synth needs some rework, i didn't blame mastering.That's only bad sound choice.I opened the session and i saw that it has a shit load of reverb.

    The sound that starts at 2:22?It sounded good in solo but in the whole picture it's not the best choice as it is.My big mistake i rushed a little.

    Great track!
    Just that bell sound at 1.00-maybe too much compression?

    Also I think the high frequency is too busy, I mean - everything is there, competing.
    Maybe, just maybe, if you push something down 1 octave, ex.the bell, make it softer somehow, I think musically the song would be more enjoyable.

    Don't get me wrong, this is great, REALLY.
    But it's difficult to listen to this twice without a rest, because the high frequency hurts my ears.

    Hope this helps!

    P.S.I'm no expert here, just try to give you a constructive feedback.

    Happy producing.
    Happy New Year.

    Of course the version above was only a day old.SO for me this year started with the mixing of this track,made some changes soundwise and thats it.
    Happy New Year!
