Mixing down, you suggested:
Turn the volume down.
It's counter-intuitive.
If you listen loud,
everything is out in the open.
Ear fatigue comes quickly.
I don't like to be wrong,
or at least uninformed.
That trick,
turn the volume down,
works like a charm.
At a whisper,
what is standing out?
Bring the bass down.
Turn the vocals up.
Play better drums.
Play drums.
Now I know and will
sound wise
when I suggest this to someone
else.
Mix with the volume down.
