I have put together many songs and I found they usually do not have less than 50 layers. unfortunately, when I get to that point my songs begin to sound crowded. How many layers do you guys usually have in your finished track? Also if it is around this many, how do you minimize the crowdedness in a song. I know that this question could be under mixing and mastering but I figured if I am asking how many layers for a song, this question goes hand in hand with that.
Thanks in advance,
Joe
