I had an assistant ask a very interesting question and I really didn't know how to answer him. He asked "Is there a rule of thumb for cutting low end on hard panned instruments"? Now, I learned mixing from guys who mixed for vinyl where you had to budget your low end for the sake of how the groove would be cut, so I do what I was taught back then. Habit I guess, but I couldn't give him a definitive answer. What do you guys think?
Best regards,
Brian
