Before y'all tell me not to do this, I did it already....it's not written

in
stone though.

I've got a mix, I hate the snare...it's a done deal though. I'm stuck with

it
for now.
I took the stuff over to a respected Mastering guy in town to do 2 tunes

for me
as a free evaluation. I brought the mix in question just to see if he

could
zero something in on the snare frequency EQ-wise & help me not hate it as

much.
He basically thought it was okay just too loud...which it is. So he zero'd

in
on the transients(is that the right word? I dunno) where it was spiking &
brought a few of them down. He said that would work only it would take a

long
time doing every backbeat. So.............I did it at home in Nuendo, I

was
very careful & only grabbed the minimum part of each snare

smack....brought 'em
down 2db.

It doesn't seem like I wrecked the tune. I still hate the sound of the

snare
but at least it's softer. Bad idea?
