I've been avoiding lead parts a lot, but a song im recording has a lead solo in it and i just cant get it to sit in the mix right. What kind of process do you guys go through to mix leads? Im having some issues with deciding where to place them/eq them.
I have four rhythm tracks right now, 100l 75l 75r 100r with each side playing the same thing. One of my main problems is the volume increase when the leads kick in, would it be better to lower the master rhythm track during leads or maybe mute the two inner tracks to counter the volume problem?
also, how should lead tones differ from rhythm tones? ive currently just been raising the gain and treble, but what works for you all?
thanks!
