It can really help to have a commerical track inside your project at all times to listen to and compare with. This helps you move more in the right direction without steering away and not realising it. I believe its one of the biggest helps in trying to achieve a better mix.

When Im working on a track I tend to make the Kick and the Bass both mono In the past I kept everything in stereo, but I notice that when making things mono, they tend to change in volume and go louder. The use for the plug in would be to ensure that the rest of the sounds mixed in with the kick and...

The actual sounds you use in the first place determine how they will fit into the mix. You can sometimes try all the compression and eq in the world to get your kick to fit better in the mix and seem punchier and phatter, but it just might not have the right set of frequencies in the sound itself, s...

Has anyone used this plug-in yet. What is the best way to use it. Would I be putting it on the master insert or on ...

theres another Waves one I have called L3 Multimaximiser. That works well and it has 5 bands. I tend to use the C4 though quite often as ive not had this newer one for long. I also own Izotope Ozone and theres one with that which works pretty well. The only other one ive got which can be pretty good...
