Tightening up the bass?
Anyone have any tricks / methods they'd like to share for tightening up the bass in PTLE...?
Thanx Grant

Re: Tightening up the bass?
You could sidechain the bass compression to the kickdrum (use it as the key trigger)

Re: Tightening up the bass?
Put a high pass filter at about 40Hz then give the bass a boost at 300Hz and cut the 300Hz from the Kick drum quite radically. This should help in placing the kick and bass. Also do as the first poster said and sidechain the comp to the kick.
Next is to cut all the low freq information for anything that does not require it, such as Gtrs, Vox, SN etc... (high pass at 100Hz-220Hz or appropriate low shelf). This will help to give the bass some room to move and will save energy in the mix.
