• Sculpts the bass guitar for the perfect amount of clarity and body without stepping on the kick drum

• Blends in his Fairchild 670 on the 2 Bus
• Tries his Fultone tube tape echo on the vocal
• Patches in the plate reverb at Sam Phillips Recording
• Sets up a parallel compressor on the drum kit and explains converter offset and how to compensate for it
