- , EQ. When enugoh is enugoh, when too much is too much. Give step by step demo's of popular and affordable software or other methods. -Getting a good bass sound. It is extremely hard to get a good bass sound out of my stand alone. The mix ends up way too bassy. -Compression and clipping. Getting mixes to sound good in a Car/home stereo or other playback method is virtually what good mix should do (many of my mixes have spots where the clip too much they should be smooth without harsh peaks and/or valleys) so tips and instructions on how to actually achieve that (not the theories on hZ and frequencies, etc.), but how actually get er done. -Models and brands of studio proven headphones that don't color the sound to avoid the inevitable pricy search. -Bread and butter plugins or in the case of standalone units effects, etc. Tried and true stuff with simple step by step applications no outrageous stuff. -A section on should I or shouldn't I use a deesser?, etc. Basically, show a good tried and true signal path from start to finish for Computer based and stand alone (i.e., from the guitar to the PC/MAC or standalone and everything that is essential in between). -Include what outboard gear (actual compressors, mixers, i.e. non software stuff but hardware) is actually essential if at all. Additionally, stuff not to waste your money on. -Simple explanations on Drums: how to lay good rhythm tracks without a drummer, Midi or a drum machine. What software, how to use it, etc. -Again, the actual signal path from the guitar to the PC/MAC or standalone and everything in between laid out so the beginner cand follow it to the T as a useful template.
