Balance
Balancing the low end
A precise balance target between kick and bass.
Depending on the style, you want a dominant kick (electronic, rock) or a bass that carries (soul, reggae). What matters is deciding, then checking the result matches the intent.
The game sets a balance target: find it. Compare with the reference, then judge the low end as a whole, not each element alone.
Listen for
- The overall feel of the lows: weight, punch, sustain.
- The point where neither masks the other.
The classic mistake
Listening to kick and bass soloed: balance matters in the full mix.
