First time mixing all live instrumentation + vocals. What did I miss?

I know a lot of FX are subjective here depending on the sound Iโ€™m trying to achieve. I just mean the general steps to mixing a song that are mostly universal. I followed tutorials and whatnot.

The track is sounding really good, there is room for improvement. I donโ€™t want to get any more specific for fear of diluting the answers I get.

Drums, Piano, Guitar, Bass guitar, Rap vocal, Singing vocal,

Piano and guitar are panned 40% to the left and right respectively.

Bass guitar is running a side chain compressor to unmask the sound when the bass drum hits.

Piano and guitar are running a side chain compressor for unmasking with the vocals.

Rap vocals have mild reverb, EQ and compression. A separate, duplicate vocal track underneath using Waves doubler with a slight boost to the low end of the vocals for a more full sound. Third vocal layer manually dubbing end-rhymes/specific words and phrases. 4th vocal layer for adlibs and background vocals.

Singing chorus vocal. Reverb, EQ, compression, slight chorus effect to add body, slight saturation for texture. Duplicate track with Waves doubler to add body and depth.
