You know, this is the first time I ever gotten such good reviews on a mix. Not too long ago, I just couldn't get any mix to even to a "serviceable" state. Someone told me, "dude, you have to follow the 80/20 rule." It turned out that the 80/20 is 80% listening and 20% technical know-how. I thought it was the other way around
. So I strapped on my headphones and went to work. I listen to, literally, thousands of mixes, pro's and amateur's, then I notice the subtle things that I couldn't hear or even know they were there in my mix. From that point on, I am not afraid of the compressor/EQ anymore. I can hear what they do to my tracks and it makes mixing a lot more pleasurable. Now I am practicing listening to FX. And yeah, it's kinda hard to listen to FX in context but I am learning. I would offer the same advice to you. It works for me, it may work for you as well. Thanks.
