(Originally posted in wrong forum)...

I'm slowly getting there with my track, thanks to this forum I've learnt some neat tricks for dirtying it up, I think it sounds a bit tooo dirty at the moment maybe a bit overdistorted, but anyway would really welcome feedback on it - it's not a full track, only the first minute or so. I'm having a bit of trouble with compression, see I have most of my drum parts and my bassline going through a group channel which is then compressed via an external 3630. The trouble is, when I take the bassline out, the volume of all the resulting parts increases (most noticable at 0.29secs). I've tried sticking a limiter on there but am obviously not doing it right. Is this a common problem? Or have I done something dodgy with my routing / compression?!

Anyway, the track is here if anyone wants to take a listen...
