Re bass drum processing.
If you wanna try out a great plug-in for getting the most out of any bass
drum, or loop for that matter, get the Camel Audio, "Camel Phat".
It is fantastic for really maxing out your bass drums, and is totally fine
tuneable via the track inspector!
The link for Camel Audio is:

If you wanna try a basic stripped down version of the Camel Phat, just
download the free Camel Crusher plug-in at:
http://www.camelaudio.com/camelcrusher.php
It's the same processor, just a little less featured, if you like...

Hi Nevil.
What i do to maintain the punchiness of a kick drum or guitar or whatever
the sound might be, is to ue integrity of the original sound though.
What do I know about integrity though? (smile)
se compression. i have fine tuned the compression settings for things
like vocals, kick drum, snares etc. and the right ratio of gating will have
these sounds fit nicely in the mix without having them sound to squished or
distorted. The right compression will make a kick drum sound warmer or
fluffier if you like. Too much though and it sounds like caca.
i remember an interview with Butch Vig (Nirvanna and Garbage producer).
he talked about using compression on the entire mix. He said something
about this technique makes his stuff sound better for peeps listening to his
stuff with a boom box. I think he was half joking but it still makes sense
at the same time.
As for the noisiness. I guess you could E Q some of it out if you zoned
in on the right frequencies. or, you could use something like GoldWave
which has some noise reduction effects that I have used with some success in
the past. Too much noise reduction could compromise th

I have 2 questions for all you experts.
1 How do you find unwanted frequencies and remove them? How do you get
the most out of a kick drum or a bass guitar if it's too boomy sounding? I
wouldn't want to remove all the low frequencies, because then it would sound
flat, but at the same time I wouldn't want to overpower the mix.
2 How would I remove hiss from a loop that I downloaded? I would like to
get the most out of these loops, but some of them are messy sounding.
