thank you so much for the feedback! don't be sorry, this is exactly the kind of feedback i joined this jam for. i've been told about the mixing issues, especially on the lower end. with how difficult it is to even think about mixing on Beepbox, i might switch DAWs in the near future so my works can be less muddy.
thanks so much for the resources and detailed feedback - i appreciate it a lot! i'll for certain take it into account in the future.
