    RANDY STAUB - I will repeat myself to death. One of the most underrated engineers/mixing engineers in the world or maybe He just loves to stay away from the fame that He deserves!
    I love His super heavy and beefy low end tone and those super wide guitars. He worked with Bob Rock with Metallica era from Black Album to S&M. He did a mix of "How You Remind Me" with Nickelback and also 3 Alice in chains records whey they've returned.

      @@Producelikeapro Holly cow! Warren, You dip Your fingers into the grunge!
      You can clearly hear which songs Randy did by more fat drums and less presence in the vocals. Andy Wallace loves clarity at a level of CLA so it's obvious. That is why I love Randy mixes for me, and He would be mine mixer of choice because I love His bottom end, still radio friendly sound, but He almost always, 99,9% leaves this alternative peace in His every mix.
      As goes band: They sound like a Silverchair but as I looked, it was 2003-04 so it was on that "new grunge wave" but still I love that bands like that had a chance and I wish that nowdays it also would be a case.
      Oh whell, I'm collecting the money to send Mr. Staub a EP to mix so we will see ; )

      @@Producelikeapro I have. With the Lauten Clarion FC-357 and FC-387 they don't want to make the hard mount. The FC-357 FET mic and the Lauten Atlantis FC-387, another FET mic, have capsules that are susceptible to coming loose with frequent & constant vibrations. It's a fraction of a fraction of a screwdriver turn between loosened and completely tightened. The spider mounts prevent this from happening. I still don't care. I can tighten the damn thing myself. (I have tightened it myself, but don't tell my warranty people.) I'm on a mission to have the hard mount made for me. If it's good enough I'll send some your way to give to Thorpe.

I’m familiar with mixing & compression. Majority of times I’m mixing hip hop, r&b, & rap music. I want to incorporate a analog compressor for mastering but not sure which to go with: multiband, singleband compressor or tube compressor for color.
