Thanks again Little Fella! Your tips seem to be helping the mix along nicely, I do have my kick s/c'd to the bass, the set up was Thres -11db, ratio 00.1 attack 5.2, hold 38msec, release 90msec, gain 0,

I've changed the thres to -21db, and i seem to be getting a bit more of the kick. i'll post the results soon ;)
