by ears i like the kick a bit louder usually, it can add more dynamic to the tune.
i think value don't mean much as it depends the synths saw waveform, some saw are more quiet and peak higher , sometimes cause of hp filter |

my kick is also way louder than the bass, have analysed the latest work of me and kick is -10 rms and bass -14 rms but without analysis bass sounding somehow louder or not that much difference ^^ anyways

Man when i drop my kick to even for instance -6db and the bass to -8db i can barely hear them lol,so eventually all the other channels should be quiter too to fit the kick and bass and that makes the whole mix very quite when u export it,is it ok? |

Well i use bx5D2 monitors with saffire 6 and its too quite guys and i mean it! I need to raise the volume on my soundcard for 80% too "feel" the track and for instance if i listen to some mp3 i usually listen at 50% max and its loud enough! Can a good mastering actually "bring" the volume back? |

So what would be the exact difference between if i turn down the db of all my channels one by one or just take the main channel and turn it down? |

Anyway.
Said that also in my opinion is good to keep the bass a little lower than Kick and to leave space for the mix; The final metering is our ears and the right feeling it's not only a matter of volume, but EQ and compression are necessary to get a total integration. |
