OK, got everything set up and first impressions of the monitors is that they're very 'mid-forward' (for lack of a better term) and because I have a square room I'm getting all kinds of standing waves or whatever. I will have to get some bass traps in the new year - at least, from my limited knowledge I believe they should help??? Not sure if I'm mixing too dark because the upper mids are very heavy - we'll see.
Specifically, I've wanted to work on drum processing and 'hand crafting' a great atmosphere that the drums sit is REALLY hard. What I felt like I lacked in my first attempt was any impact from the toms and snare. They kinda just got lost a bit.
I'm not sure how it'll translate with the new speakers yet
we'll call this experiment number one perhaps?
See the second track in OP for the latest attempt.
Many thanks again for any advice given on either take
EDIT: Also, I found a neat little reverse effect thing in Pro Tools Audiosuite
