So when it comes to mixing and mastering I always find myself in a little bit of a pickle. I have a bad habit of liking low-end. You know the booty/wall shaking, skull reverberating, soul destroying low-end. Thus my songs usually feature a silly low sine bass drum, a sub bass line, and even my pads tend to lean on the low end of the eq spectrum. Compounding this problem is that I rarely think beforehand about how these parts will fit together. By the time I get around to mixing and mastering I have this tangled mess of blah at the low end of the spectrum. I know there are a couple of quick fixes but they never quite work. Tonight I think I will play around with eq before setting sounds and parts in stone. A little experiment in song writing. If any of you out there in the land of the internetz has any suggestions I would love to hear them.
