Listened to your mix again... mud might not be the correct word. I now think I know what troubled me. When I solo keys and bass during the chorus they play the same figure. I think that gets lost when you "flex" bass to the bass drum. It sounds to me they don´t play the same figure anymore.
Interesting that you had the same monitors as I have. I don´t have that much of possibilites to reaarrange my room. I´ll give it some thought though and see if I can come up with something.
I too now see that low sub spike in my mix. Funny it slipped through, I used lowcut on everything but the kickdrum. Even the bassplayer is lowcutted as high as 50Hz! hmm, shall have a second look at that. Maybe the reason for the 30Hz peak slipping through was that I tried something for me totally new on the kick. Used one mick for lows and another for highs, seperating them with regular high/low pass filters. I totally agree with your friend. I´ll slap a highpass filter on that kick asap
I usually do.
Will lookup the ToneBoosters. Your mix doesn´t sound squashed or limited to me at all. Have you compared it to Slate Digitals FG-X? I have that but not at home where I did this.
Listening to that Jagger track was easier said than done. Will have a peek at local library if I can borrow it from there. Not available from any download store I use!
