I love this gain
Focus on the song as a whole, not the instruments and their sounds when solo'ed. Solo just to check or build a foundation.
This is incredibly hard to grasp and easier said than done but sometimes you have to sacrifice certain freqs and tones of your favourite instrument.
For example, we all listened to thousands of records full of shitty tones that sound like an actual record and listened to shitty records or demos that sound terrible with a killer drum or guitar tone. If I have to choose, I'd take the former.
The song chooses you and dictates the sound, not the other way round. Make the most out of the song, not the tones or tracks.
