How To Use A Spectrum Analyzer?

I'm thinking of perchasing NuGen Audio's Visualizer to help me with my mix but before I make such an impulse buy I'd like to know exactly what Spectrum Analyzers are done for a trance track. To the best of my understanding, I believe you can load one up on individual tracks, say for instance, a Bass and analyze the frequencies. Obviously most of the action will lay in the lows but a spectrum analyzer will let you see if some mid's or hi's are in effect. This way you'll know to EQ those out...is this understanding correct?
If it is, then this is what I need. I want to see where most of the action is being played out in my individual tracks so I know where to cut with EQ and where to fit the other sounds in... |

You just put it into an insert and it will show you whats going on and yes in some way this might help you with EQ or point out some problems in your mix.
Before you go and buy anything, check Voxengo SPAN, best freeware analyzer - SPAN |

It's actually best to put it on the master or sub master. That way you just solo the track(s) you want and can also observe the whole mix or parts or groups etc.
The only thing is, I'm pretty sure nearly every DAW has at least one built in spectrum analyzer. Why don't you check the free one out first before laying out cash to buy a third party one. |

| I always have 2 in series. When the analyzer realizes that itself is being audited, it tends to be more honest. |
