very similar to what i do already,
bass always gets an eq on channel,
then sent to a bass bus, which has compression, eq, saturation, maybe MaxxBass, Maybe DBX, Maybe waves Magma BB tubes (mono), and sometimes i'll even do a little new york compression.
but often times, the bass sounds exactly the way i want it going in, and i'll do nothing to the channel.
but this is a trickier mix, because of the acoustics carrying the rhythm.
