With atmos, it's exactly the opposite -- I mix it to the lowest level possible, where I can still hear all the detail. Maybe it's inexperience and something I never picked up, or something that just doesn't click with me, but I can never think of things in terms of dB or hrz. AFTER I do something, I can recognize it, but I can't think of the super technical side of things before hand. | |
