Part 3: Music Making Tips....Mixing:
Part 3 Mixing:
Okay, this is part 3, so no more introductions etc. we are just going to get started right away with tips which will help better your mixing.

"Traditionally" the instruments in the middle of your mix are Bass, Kick, Snare, and Vocals remember to use shelving EQ's, high/low pass filters and subtle compression to give each one of these elements their own space.
