Brennon Causey Mixing - 'Treadmills (JS MIX) v2'

[401kBC]

I did a JS plugin only mix, with the except of a few ReaComp's for sidechaining, and one Reaverb

The only automation is the bass line at the very end, which was too loud after the Fx
Alot of things are sidechained
Incase it may be instructional or for anyone curious, I took some screenshots

many elements sound in the center, thereby making it dirtier.  You did not think to release the center under the voice?  Maybe the tools should be a little further apart?

Honestly it never occurred to me that it was soo mono.I've had a lovely relationship with my mono's for a while now, I've found that I enjoy making everything work and sound good well before panning, which typically makes things translate way smoother.

However, I forget things eventually need to be a little bit more interesting, and not so clogged up, messy and centered. I have smaller ears so I always hear more treble and the upper balances, hence why I enjoy a more mono mix. Its less fatigue on my ears. The 200hz to 500hz range is the hardest for me to understand, its extremely vague and blurry. I have to use some sort of monitor speaker to really tell what happens around the Low mids, or my balance will never feel right mixing on headphones. 

I use VSX,  AKG q701 headphones, and some cheap Kali monitors in a basic non treated apartment. I only did this mix with the VSX headphones
