There's not really much to it actually.. I haven't put way too much time

in the mixing/mastring process.. just the usual of getting things to fit

compression, eq, and some automatation... In the stuka song I have only

a h4n as overheads + kick and snare but no tom mics so the sound stands

out alitle from the rest on that song.. I allways emphasize the 1100hz

region on the uprightbass to give more of that buzzy sound, I'm using

the 4-band parametric eq... I've been refence listening alot to The Bad

Plus as this is the band that has inspired me the most lately.. I use

the same panning idea they've got on most of their songs, eg bass and

piano to the sides and the drums !everywhere! -_- It really separates

things! I also make use of the ir-lv2 plug alot, mostly for room

emulation and reverbs.. I record the drums in a bad sounding, boxy

garage so I put the OH's quite close to the drums and use room emulation

instead.. as for mastering I really just try to get the levels sort of

the same with a limiter...
