When you get sent tracks to mix, and the snare drum looks like this:

just make sure you flip the polarity on that bottom snare track or is may sound like crap ;) - wow I guess they thought the red lights were a good thing...
 
I'm going to try and get a hold of the engineer that did this, and kindly ask him to take off L1 from all the tracks. If he's a dick and won't give me useable tracks to mix, I might post samples of this.
