nah.

You're being pretty specific, and i think for most the creation process isn't that specific.

I think you can be as specific or unspecific as you want to be, or what you knowledge allows you to be.

I will say that if you do have a range of frequency that your layers are being applied at, you have a better chance of placing them in the mix.

But how sound works is that, you're going to have little pieces of every thing that's more prominent during application. That's why you filter out any thing below or on top of other element's space.

I will say that, i did try to make sure to cut out any thing specifically that would be in the way of other things, but that didn't quit work out. It's like holding the door for every one else with out actually walking through the door.

When ever i do subtractive and additive eq, i really listen to what the sound needs in order to best benefit the mix. It's not how can i make room for others, but how can this be best projected in the mix. and what can i do to enhance the aural content.

This is a very good post. Thanks!

What is the name of the part of a song where one uses a rise (/fade) effect in between the different "parts" of the song to build up and sometimes also "release" tension to make the song more dynamic? You know, when one can use white noise, a snare build, two crashes where one of them is reversed and those kind of things? I would like to know some advanced techniques, because I'm still a basic bitch. There are some artists who i think are extremely good at this, like Arty, Mat Zo, Deadmau5 and Savant. Please let me know if anyone has any information and knowledge about this, or where i might find it, video lessons and such would also be great! Thanks guys <3

I like this very much! I agree with guppi, it sounds very spaced.
