I think this is a great idea. I find that my ability to achieve the other aspects of a production (like synthesis, different techniques, etc) way outmatch my ability to make the song as a whole sound crisp and professional.

That would be a superb tutorial!

This would be great. 

This has been requested a handful of times now, don’t think anything will ever come of it as it hasn’t already, but who knows right?

I think proper mixing is done through solid EQ work.



I’ve been learning more & more about EQ every week.



I notice that when I am trying to get a solid mix from a track, its done almost entirely through EQ.



Cutting/boosting frequencies is what is giving it the crisp sound IMO.



Obviously doing automation has a big factor in doing a proper mix, but I think an indepth tutorial on EQ will have much much much more value than just a straight mixing tutorial.
