Hi!
You can start gating or processing the snare manually, this of course
is a lot of work, but it might pay. Otherwise you could move the snare
alittle more to the center or even left and move something, that isn't
on the snare channel to the right.
You can use a compressor as well to shape the peaks of the snare
track, so the ride gets lost even more. Perhaps not the nice way of
doing it, but can certainly be something to ponder.
In general I would spread the sounds some more in the panorama. Put
the guitars - except the solo guitar - to the sides, so the drumkit has
more space to breathe there and the bass guitar gets some room as well.
The thing I learnt about guitars, is that their most important
frequencies end at about 5-6kHz anyway. So you may put a rigorous filter
on them. That would enable some more room for the snare, ride and vocals.
With that genre, I would have expected the snare release phase to be
more audible in the stereo panorama somehow. I mean the sound you get,
when you add a moderately short reverb (1-1.5s) and use some compression
after that.
As for the snare/crash problem: You could try to load them in a wave
viewer or something, that can display sounds in the frequency domain and
see, where they have their main frequency bands and try to EQ them out a
little more.
I don't think the general tuning of the snare drum is a problem. That
sounds OK.

Ok, as you can see in my previous mail, I already have the snare
dynamics processed and also know quite well, which frequency ranges make
instruments sound better.
I'll try this:
-get rid of default jamin settings in master insert, maybe bypass the
sum compression as originally intended.
-see if i get more snare out of it
-get some space for vocals in the center
-raise the vocal level
-raise high frequencies
-check that both channels are equally loud? Or better not? Right is
louder now.
-upload new version
-ask you again.
