I'm just speaking from my own vision to a mix, that being that the drums are built around the guitar tone. I use AD, and even though I may like...
My friend, I guess it's the other way around. For my liking, the kick needs a clickier, batter-hitting kind of sound to be recognizable and not...

Awesome singer, budget-to-mid price microphone, expensive room acoustics. Nothing beats that. Then your DAW's own compressor, EQ, delay and reverb...
We could simply choose one of those 5 selected mixes, which are supposed to provide a learning experience according to Jason Moss, give it a go,...
Yeah. I've been meaning to do something like this after I saw it in Graham Cochrane's site, Dueling Mixes, but i haven't been had much luck...
