Perpetual Escape: 'Sin Six' kapu mix

[kapu]

Hi kapu,
solid mix ...

Thanks! It's quite simple: I'm pure awesome and excellence incarnated, and I just nail every single mix every single time. ^_^ But seriously speaking, for me the latest great leap towards better sound was to start using compression. I mean really applying the compression, and not just loading some plugin on the track and watching the needle barely move, like in all those worthless lessons and tutorials. Relatively slow attack times and fast releases. And adding serial compression, and then parallel compression. And then driving the tracks or groups against some tape saturation or clipping distortion. Or I don't know, just try compression a lot more thank you think is enough, and then saturate or clip as much as possible without making it audibly distorted.

EDIT: BTW 'VCA Smashed' is SSL bus compressor style preset in Logic Pro's compressor.
