    but I will again stress that it’s the musician who decides what good sound is when he pays someone to record and mix.

    I agree. Unless you’re paying for a producer as well. If you’re self producing your project then, yes, what you say is law. If you’re paying for a producer then you’re paying to have him/her make these type of decisions. If the producer is on the ball, then he/she will have an end vision and if that end vision calls for slightly less aggressive hats for a particular song, then it’s up to the musicians to follow his lead. That’s what you’re paying him for.

    I’ve done plenty of projects where the musicians are ‘self producing’ and have no idea what they’re doing. They end up asking me to produce because nothing ever gets done. There is no clear leader. It should be a give and take with both producer and musician working for the same end goal.

    You’re probably right about that, but I’ve never met a drummer who didn’t have a very clear vision of what drum sound he wanted

    I guess that varies with the music style, too.
