1.4 A Few Words from JJP

"There are certain things you usually just take for granted when you’re mixing drums.
Sure, the snare has to snap. Or maybe you want
drum has to have a nice bottom. But beyond that, there’s a whole other range of things
you need to consider to really make the song come alive. Maybe there’s some tonality in
the drum kit that you want to emphasize. How do the drums relate to the rest of the
song? And once you figure all that out—how do you get there? Well, what’s really great
is, JJP Drums is a plug-in that can do it all."
