This is such a strange thread for me, as I usually feel the need to work the snare, HH, and other cymbals to get more of their clarity (which is to be expected; I feel compelled to do the same with the multitrack drums we record with actual drummers).
Hearing others have the opposite issue, makes me wonder if it is a genre/RD combination thing .. or if, maybe, I just mix different than others.

I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
