Plane Theory Mixing woes

mm that's difficult.. hehe
I liked the 1, but after listening to all of them, I like the n.2 the most: is similar to 1, but it even has more punch and live feeling with the voice and instruments.
the 3 is good too, but has a lower mixing volume of about -20% (i don't know if original file is same or soundcloud made it quieter) and while I like the warm bass feeling, it is less "open" than n.1 and n.2. think of it that n.1 and n.2 felt to me like playing in a live concert, while n.3 playing in a club house ^^

Liked second one the most. The instrumentals are popping more and the voice is less in conflict with the instrumentals than the first one although trying a Reverb to make things fit better would be good.
Hmmm noted I’m working on a mix rn that is bumpy like the second one but with more controlled vocals like the third as in the chorus transition is less severe like the 3rd one
I don't like how muffled the third one sounds, but it's me. So if I would give an opinion I would say just becareful with that :3
I listened to all three: I have to say, it seems to me like Feng Yi's voice is being drowned by the instrumental, which is to be expected considering she has a soft voice type. I'd personally recommend to use an EQ to gently boost the frequencies from 3kHz onwards (2-3 dB boost with high shelf should be fine), as well as using a bit more compression (I'd use 3:1~4:1 ratio as well as a lower threshold, but definitely experiment with it). The second example is definitely clearer but her voice felt a bit too sharp at certain moments to me. Hope this helps 
(however, the tuning is stunning jhxgc)

Thank you all I think I will re render her with a more powerful voice setup and try again :) listening back I prefer the second mix overall but I prefer the vocal edits I added in the 3rd one some pitch and a lot of loudness to keep parts consistent in volume so imma try to combine them in a way

I am a broken person and this song is the cause lol took the feedback and got this and I like it quite a lot! went with a more full voice on Feng Yi a more bumpy mix overall and my additional tuning from the 3rd attempt :)
