i usually mix the kick down first becvause it is one of the instruments that i am not going to want to tweak effects on throughout the mix, it usually stays the same and therefore get a good level of compression on it (the cubase multiband compressor is a CPU hording animal!!) then mix it downOriginally Posted by stjohn
save synth's and stuff until as late as possible in your mixdown cos these instruments are gonna be tweaked throughout your track (in my case anyway)
