Oh dear! You aren't asking the horns to record their parts in
isolation, are you? No wonder we have to spend so much trouble
fixing in the mix what should (and would) have been naturally done by
the players in a live interactive musical situation.

I thought it was just one player.

My point is, if you have them play with the apropriate dynamics, then
you wont have to worry about compression for leveling purposes. I've
found that will lead to tracks that are really easy to mix.

Do you find yourself spending a lot of time fixing your horn tracks?
