Thanks loudnoize,

I think you're totally right. The kick and bass are too squashed.
As far as clipping, there is an amp emulation on the bass, but that's
not what you're hearing? I didn't let anything actually clip, but if it sounds
like clipping, I have some more work to do.

One more question for all:
I submixed the kick and bass together through an SSL comp plug. The
attack was at like 2-4 miliseconds, can't remember exactly but it was fast.
Would this have something to do with the stiff, overcompressed sound?

Thanks!
