Hi,
I've been making a few dancy/gritty type tracks lately, almost going for the prodigy's Music For The Gilted Generation feel, and I'm using Alesis MK2's which aren't the best monitors in the world but are my first pair.
I'm having a bit of trouble getting the bass to sound exactly how I want it to... In the sense that when I try tracks in my car with a sub woofer the bass can be way too intense and not what I expected, whereas on my monitors some of my tracks don't sound as bassy as some profesionally mastered tracks.
Do you think this is to do with my monitors not outputting the ultra low end of the spectrum? Would a sub solve this problem, and would you say it's an essential piece of kit when making this style, or should I just keep practicing getting it right on my current setup?
Thanks!
