As a layman reading this and looking at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presence_(amplification), is that
achieveable without using an equaliser? Over on Soundcloud Mark Bennett has posted an
acapella recording
of a traditional Irish ballad, as an open collaboration project.
I found this song totally captivating so decided to try my hand.
This is what I achieved. I hope you like it.

Nice. It would have been perhaps also nice to have a bit more
presence on the instruments though :) If only for a bit more
balance between voice and instruments. The instruments uplifting
the voice without any volume adjustments. Although unrelated, I found this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presence_(sound_recording)
It may or may not be related, although it does have to do with little
details that contributes to support the main expression. Those are also
called Foley sounds. The use if highly creative. It can be a sound
of dry leaves being brushed, tailored and mixed with a snare. It can
be just the sound of 'the air' in the countryside, mixed in. It would
interesting for this recording, to remove the reverb, add tailored
'countryside air ambiance' sounds (it can be very subtle, no need for
blowing wind !) and only then reintroduce reverb.
