This project of mine contains a Drum & Bass loop. I have stripped away all the FX channels, deleted all the effect plugins, and reset all the volume and panning values to their defaults. Basically, it has been "unmixed".

I would like you to mix this loop the way you see (and hear) fit. Use LMMS stock plugins.

Upload it to LSP and link here so we can discuss.

Brilliant idea!
But i suggest that users also upload a good quality export to our soundcloud grp. That way it can be very easy to compare and even skip jump between different files.
And do use the 'Project-notes' to explain your ideas.

Yes, but you may decide how to mix it. Not all instruments have to be clearly audible.

LMMS share:

I also exported the file and uploaded it to soundcloud.

I usual use easy Q vst on my projects, but it makes lmms less stable, so for this project I did not.
I just used my ears and the 10 band eq that comes with lmms.

so, this is just a mixing? no arrangement, additions etc. ?
