its a general question, ive got to the stage where i can beat match but the mixing doesnt quite sound right, and thats because i dont use the eq controls at all.

You're going to want to start by taking out the bass (the lowermost knob on the channel EQ, usually referred to as the low) so that the bass isn't double. Adjust the gain so the volume of the incoming track is approximately that of the playing track. Some people use the mids and highs to further polish a mix, and while it can be effective, it takes a while to master and sounds rather shit unless you do it exactly right. Your gain and low EQs are your best friends, make sure you know how to use them to their full potential (just experiment).

Hey man i wouldn't worry too much. Eq-ing is a very personal thing, and it comes with time. There is no better way to learn than by experimenting.

Just for the kickstart, all you need to know is - during a break, cut the lows, and do same during a transition (on the incoming track). And trust me, there is no better way than to experiment AND the next time you go see a decent dj (doesn't need to be PVD), if you can look into the cabin, take a real good look at what the guy is doing with the eq's (but not only!) and memorize it to try at home.

Just be careful with the mid and highs, they aren't nearly as forgiving as the low is. Experimentation is key like the others said, and each song will react differantly to EQ's. On some songs I have, you can't really turn the bass down, as there's higher freq's that go along with the kick, and with the bass turned down it sort of "knocks".

New sig BTW
