Late post today but it is a good one. This is from James R Edmonds’ master tape. The raw mix started out pretty good, but then guitar overpowered the mix- it was all you could hear. I did everything I could to bring up bass, vocals and drums in Izotope and it sounds pretty decent. This is peak D.R.I. — that 85-86 time frame was untouchable.

Rebalance in Izotope Rx8: Vocal +9, Bass and Drum +10, guitar -1. Yeah, it was that extreme.
