if anyone would like to hear what came out of my basement after 16 months of hard ass work go to cdbaby.com/comaking, remembering of course that if you lsten in low fi dial up it doesn't sound as good as it really does because those files have been big time compressed. and just in case you get...

it doesn't matter what monitors i use {have used berhinger,alesis,mackie}.I always have to do a mixdown and listen to the whole thing making notes as to what is wrong and then go back and make those changes.I have never had any monitors that I could just mix it and it was perfect.
