I made a nice main 'lead' (is that what it's called in dnb or is that only in trance still new to all the nomenclature) bass in massive. The sound is very 'cutting' but that is an element I wanna keep. I think I could adjust it down a bit but not alot cos that is what gives it the sound I want.
Thing is it's so prominent that the break is drowned out (and everything else actually) when played with other elements. The trouble is, if I just reduce the volume of the bass track then it loses alot of its definition so that is no good. I also just tried using a compressor but to get it down to a decent level that also squashes it too much causing it to lose too much definition again.
So what else can I do to maintain all it's idiosyncrasies while lowering it so that the other sounds in the tune can get a look in?
