here's the best advice i've ever gotten...

First, do what you think is needed, don't use presets, cause all recordings are different. So in short, I use EQ when it's necessary not necessarily all the time.

Second, don't over do it with the FX. The way I know when I've overdone FX, is if I can easily hear the FX on speakers without concentrating on hearing it then I've over done it.

Third, If it doesn't work, don't force it.

good luck.

wow people, why do people suddenly think that if you wanna learn how to do some things it's as easy as breathing, and once you find out it isn't, you give up?
