If the bass drum is poking out a little using the low band is more transparent than a wide band compressor.
A out of control vocal often will have most of the outofcontrolledness in a small area like low mids or high end. Using a MB can often control the vocal level more transparently than a wide band compressor.
If I don't think it's needed I don't use it. I don't think the mix has to be "broken" to use it any more than I think EQ should only be used when something is "broken", what ever that means. |
But that's just one band, right?
