Yes, that's right. Need to find a pan-placement for all instrument though.

The percussion is rather steady, at one level, and kind of mundane, at least for me, and it seemed a little distracting
I'm not sure to blame this on the drummer or the producer

I think the Bandoneon was performed quite nicely and needs to be out front, but it's kind of covering up other instruments. I think it's a matter of a little better mix.
