Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

Hi there. I've been working with logic for 2-3 months, having recently
(re) adopted the apple platform for production, after having used Sonar
and a hardware mixer for several years, and various other tools before
that.  I'm currently working on a macbook pro with logic 7.2 and a tascam
integrated audio & control surface.

So since I just finished my first full mix, I thought I'd throw it on line
and get some feedback. I'm pretty sure that both the vocals and the
maracas are mixed too high.  Everything is either a stock apple loop or a
logic-based virtual instrument, except the strat and the vocal tracks.

Curious, for anyone who has used logic and a tascam control surface: How
do you mix the master volume? It's clearly a motorized fader, but I can't
figure out how to get logic to assign to it in the automation control,
just the sub-faders. I ended up mixing everything through a secondary
track and not touching the master fader, just so I could get a track
bounce.

I have much to learn, obviously, but I'm happy I was able to go all the
way through the process.
