Ok, as you can see in my previous mail, I already have the snare
dynamics processed and also know quite well, which frequency ranges make
instruments sound better.
I'll try this:
-get rid of default jamin settings in master insert, maybe bypass the
sum compression as originally intended.
-see if i get more snare out of it
-get some space for vocals in the center
-raise the vocal level
-raise high frequencies
-check that both channels are equally loud? Or better not? Right is
louder now.
-upload new version
-ask you again.
