drum machine tweeks?

[Mountainmirrors]

Hi-
I love the sound of my drum machine dry in my mixes...only because I've ruined them before by over-tweaking.
Can anyone recommend a basic tweak to really enhance a great-sounding drum machine beat?
Or do you prefer to leave well-enough alone?

Gratefully,
Jeff Sanders

run the beat thru a Pa or good stereo speakers and mic the result....blend it in with the direct signal.......

that sounds great, Gidge!
I can't wait to try that one...
Thank you.
