I haven't really tried the "all buttons in" yet, but I too want to try it on drums for that distressed vibe. Thanks for your comment.

Glad to hear so. Thanks for your comment.

Enjoyed your post--especially the bits about independent melodic lines and co-dependences. I'm endlessly fascinated with independent lines creating a progression of harmonies. There's a life and fluidity

Thanks for your comment. I try to listen away from equipment as well, oscillating between headphones, living room stereo, and especially car stereo. It never hurts to hear how the mix is translating outside

Awesome. I feel the same. I like hearing multiple opinions about workflow which helps inform my own.

I like that Dave Pensado quote. Dave is so generous through his channel with all of his tips and insights on mixing. This makes me think of Duke Ellington: "If it sounds good it IS good."
