that means crappy EQing? normally what do you guys do to the outgoing track when u bring the incoming track in to make the volume as balanced as possible, other than perfect EQing?


use channel faders

i do think this deserves a sticky. a lot of people are probably clueless about proper EQing.

How would you define proper eq-ing. In my opinion eq-ing is proper as long as it sounds good. Nothing else.

That is obviously what we are discussing here. And the methods we use to achieve that good sound. Everyone is different and reading through different styles of mixing and different approaches to the music gives a very good insight.

I know. But my reply was towards this post:

Given anyone has ears, and hopefully hasn't wrecked them yet, proper EQ-ing is no more than common sense (listen and apply correction where necessary) in my opinion. It's not that hard. This post just didn't make any sense to me. Especially since there is no real way to say EQ-ing is proper anytime as that's a personal opinion anyway.

That's why I wanted to know his definition of proper EQ-ing. To me it feels like he's saying there are rules to follow when it comes to EQ-ing.

Honestly I can't imagine people being clueless about EQing... It's so simple and pretty much common sense and after you touched those pot's a coupe of times, you know what they do.

There are some rules I have in my mind when approaching a mix. And I can definitely buy people being clueless about EQing because I have to see them in the DJ booth almost every time I want to go out somewhere.

these rules while standard are not always applicable.

for instance,(albeit very very rare) dueling baselines can work.
