Hey guys ,
Just wondering what the majority here do for metal when it comes to solos. If I use no automation , the solo will seem like the loudest part of the song , and then when it's over , the song will sound weaker. Of course you can automate the volume for these parts , but is there a better / easier way to do this? Or do you guys not do anything and just wait till the mastering process compression etc to make it sound more even? On all commercial metal records the solos blend perfectly in and out with no change in volume.
