Experiment, don't rule the box out just yet. Gain structure and plug ins have much to do with the end product. :^: Don't slam the software mix buss. That's where the problem is. I like to make a group called "All minus Master". Just pull that down when you start clogging the master. It'll get good ...

I've not tried it but have heard tape on the underside does the trick. For me... I ask the drummer to bring ALL his cymbals. The little guys work great. Then use his OH mics as the source of his headphone mix. Turn that up with only his kick mic. Everytime he hits a cymbal it drives a spike through ...

I'll sit down on the grass here and figure this out. Ooooh, look at this ant hill". Not so good for the cardiovascilar system. So......

i agree with some of this as well, but creating artifical rules about options seems pretty dopey to me. Creating artificial limitations is art. Taken from the opposite perspective you could say, "Hmmm, what colors will I INCLUDE in my next painting". Agreed, and the choice concerning whether you'll...
