I know that you were just going for what sounded good. 
âMore of me in the mixâ is an ongoing joke for me (I love private jokes with myself). Where I played for about 4 years we used wedge monitors (I dislike in-ears, but am forced to using them now, but I digress). It was a nearly weekly thing where weâd get one person or another asking for âMore of me in the monitorsâ. A couple of the folks wanted it so loud that we had problems balancing the sound out front due to stage volume. I always wanted to get shirts printed up with âMore of me in the mixâ on the back so folks could just turn around when they wanted more juice.
I know what you are saying about the bass frequencies, and honestly on my full range monitors, it sounded ok in the first mix to my ear. It could have been a bit more, but it wasnât low enough to be distracting. When I tried to boost it up on the latest mixing session, it started driving the overall levels in a big way. A 20 hz hit has much more effect than a high frequency one. Anyway, I tried to mix it to where it sounded more prevalent in headsets (decent ones but not awesome), and the only way was by pushing you up around 100 hz and down below that. I expected that as headsets arenât going to typically get meaningful response at 20 hz. Running it hotter required compression to even things out between individual notes. With all that sad, I donât like the hard compression or the 100 hz EQ hump on the bass, but I was just trying to get it more forward for you. Itâs a work in progress and weâll keep trying to get a better sound with it. If you do happen to be playing with your recording equipment, a hotter track might help to allow a more prominent bass.
