So I bought a subwoofer ... (Summer revisited)

[K-dub]

I kept going to my car and when listening, said to myself, "You are missing a lot of low end information". I'd read time and again that they weren't necessary.

It's like going from rear wheel to front wheel drive - or from front wheel drive to four wheel drive: I ain't going back. I can hear shit I just wasn't hearing right. After hearing translations in the car? Suddenly they sound exactly like what I heard in the studio.

My puzzle is, only, why the heck it took me so long to incorporate one into my monitoring setup.

I'm a bit of a stubborn idiot at times, I guess.

This is the first release I mixed w/ the new setup. It's a bit of a throwback to old school singer-songwriter times. A lot of it is very simple arrangements with mostly solo acoustic guitar or piano, w/ orchestral accompaniment. There is full band stuff interspersed as well. I thought I'd go at it slowly. I thought I'd post everything up so context between songs is added.
