hey guys, friends want me to play in their band. Questions for the mixing sound is, is the bass supposed to keep up the volume of my bass drum? what about the guitar, and the vocalist?


cheers!

Are you asking if the bass should be the same volume as the bass drum? In general, there are no guidelines or rules, just what sounds good. Use your ears. If it sounds wrong, then it probably is. Just evaluate what instrument should be supporting what other instrument at any given time during the course of the song and make your judgment from there. The most important thing when mixing is to make sure every instrument has its own frequency space to maintain even balance.
