It allows you to use the room more efficiently, hence you don't need to rely on reverbs as much and you end up with a better final mix in the mastering stage. Try, free yourself to new creative possibilities. Stop doing everything "right". Play with power and possibilities and have fun while doing it! I think Bob would agree.  Don't waste possibilities due to some rules on the Web. |
I agree. I think there are generalities more than rules. Expirementing is a big part of the fun. On the other hand, I like and am open to hearing what other folks are trying, it can't hurt.
Thanks
