IMHO...The mixing is on 2001 is almost perfect.

It's the gold standard for mixing live instruments with samples just like midnight murauders is the gold standard for a completely sample-based album.

Listen to how the drums pop and the bass guitar sits just right.

I tuned my subwoofer to the 2001 instrumentals.

Also, I think the quality of Dre's mixes actually fell off after that.

A lot of 50 cent stuff had way too much limiter and a slight digital distortion to me.

2001 on the other hand is nothing but analog goodness
