"cut the bass". Well Djintense, I guess you noticed that your recordings are a little too heavy down below. There are a number of ways to do this. My favorite is to apply multi band compression to the master bus. I'm guessing that you do not have such a plug in. In that case, add a SF EQ plugin to the master buss and roll off bass starting at about 60hz for a guide. Experiment with slope. You may want to do a few different renders while you're at it to test on other systems (car, home stereo, boom box). You can cut the bass a lot on one, medium on another, and little on another. Save your plug in patch for easy recall when you find what works.
