hmm, I never would have thought to mix the drums from the drummers perspective...interesting.
if you mixed that way, wouldnt you also want to mix everything else from the bands perspective, to keep everything in balance?

I try to mix down as if the listener is about 10-15' away from stage in a small club atmosphere, with no 1 instrument panned hard left/right(I hate the over-exaggerated stereo sound).

Just pick up one of these and multitrack away!  It's got a pile of 4060s in it.
