nd bass.
Compared to my fave ref CD's the nass and kick have way way too much low
end on my BM-15s. (this is fast, 70's influence punk not big rich FLoyd
or whatever)
THis is stuff I am remixing for someone, If I had produced it, choice would
have been made earlier that would not require this. That said, it does seem
that straight digital recirding (no tape) seems to leave unwanted lows sometimes.

Well the fundamental of the low E on a bass is 41 Hz, and
guitar it's, of course, twice that, so you don't want to
completely lop off any higher than those levels, but you can
certainly approach those, depending on the song & style. Lots
of rock guitar tracks have plenty of ener
