Take the 2-minute tour ×  I often create tracks that consist of
lots of layered (electronic) sounds. This gives me a hard time
EQing the tracks so that the mix still feels right.  Instead of
forming a solid wall of sound, It often ends up being smudgy. Or

for EQing tracks? if there any any step-by-step method, that
would be even better :)    share|improve this question  migrated
