Probably the biggest jump in quality in my productions came when I learnt how to eq, most specifically getting rid of mud in the bass frequencies.

Getting ideas, doing leads, basslines, percussion, I now find it all very simple....

...The hardest part is when you've created a good rhythm with a nice lead and stare at your computer screen and think "What now!?"....

I have a hard time filling in all that empty space between kicks, snares, and hi-hats.

The biggest problem for me is how to build the track, I mean eventual breakdowns etc, and to make the song evolve right only got it right in one track and that was L.E.E.A. *back to the drawingboard*

for me it has to be the technical side of things. I can layer good sounds an dnotes but mixing them down, EQ'ing and compression is tough.

Tryin to stay in the idea of listening to some livesets when this happens.

I agree...for me once i get the bass line groove the rest falls into place..

mixing is the hardest part, especially since I have no monitors, a shit PC that can't handle more than 2 or 3 vsts and...hopefully it should change when I buy a new PC & monitors over the summer.

Another hard part is the structure of the song...and how to do transitions that are a bit different.

Definitely arranging and making the track unpredictable.

For me? Hmm...

Actually finishing a tune and being satisfied!
