As I understand it, the goal is to record audio tracks as hot as possible. Is this really the goal.
Also, I record most instruments direct. Synthesizers, samplers and drum machines and loops. Should these be recorded flat.
I understand that the issue of levels and eq has a relation to tape saturation but, when working in the digital domain, how are these things effected.
I think the arrangement itself is important and must be well thought out for the instruments to work together well. Beyond that it is important to get them recorded as clean and full as possible.
Last thought for now. If I want to get the bass and kick to punch and thump a bit more, what are some of the techniques I can use.
