example: in pop music very crucial is the balance between vocal and the lead instrument (say a guitar). once you nail the balance between these two, everything else is a piece of cake - the other sounds just fall nicely around these main 'pillars', if u know what im saying.
ofcourse in dance music things are quite a bit different (meaning theres no 'lead instruments' and all that...) but general rules of mixing still apply. so i would be thankful if you guys share your knowledge on the subject. i will try to formulate my questions like that:
- in what general frequencies do the 'main' sounds in your mix lie?
- which two track's elements' balance do you find crucial for the overall mix balance (these can be subgroups too, say - drums <--> lead).
- in what general frequency do you 'spread' the stereo image the most? (c'mon jesse i know u the king on this one help your amateur brothers out

eerrmm, yeah. hope i made myself clear. just one more thing - i know this is one of the most important things about making a track sound strong, powerful. being such, its normal to be kind of a secret, producers' taboo u know. so i would understand if some of you dont wanna share alot on the subject. but please, PLEASE - dont give us the 'theres no method to my madness' kinda answer. we've had enough of that :evil:
sorry fo long post, d.
