    Hey Audiosexers,

    Have been teaching myself Ableton (and buying VSTs plus dabbling in sister site like a drug habit) over the past few months after almost a decade removed from electronic composition... Pretty pleased with this "wip" Electo-Rock track I just finished but could use some tips on the following:

    - How to improve the clarity / energy of the mix while ensuring it "slams"... Have been employing Utility on every track for gain staging and so there is headroom for Ozone, but my Peak and RMS are almost the same, which isn't ideal
    - Ideas on how to make the arrangement for interesting and engaging, add tension, etc.

    Listen to kingmaker (wip) by ph_ on #SoundCloud

    Coming from somebody who doesn't listen to a whole lot of synth-based music, I really liked this.
