Im stuck mixing with my computer speakers, headphones, and sometimes the reference of some cheap Paradigm bookshelf speakers behind me. I get it sounding awesome on these speakers, and then i got to my car (where everything usually sounds the best), and the bass is just overpowering! Even more so the muddy and overpowering midrange. I find if i put the bass setting on my cd deck to -2, it sounds alright.
One thing ive done is taken a lot of mixing advice from different sources, on where to cut/boost different instruments to get the best sound out of them, and lets say i do a 100hz cut by -2dba, and a 140hz boost by +2dba, should i just not boost the 140hz, and instead cut the 100 by -4DBA? Sortra reverse my eq settings, don't go any higher than 0 to start, and just do extra cutting to make the frequencies i want to "boost" stand out more, and naturally? and should i just put some eq over my entire track with a bit of a low end cut?
I'll post up the mix in particular im talking about fairly soon.
I'd apriciate any expert/non expert advice. Anyone feel free to put in your two cents i'd apriciate it.
