I can't seem to find the "make good music" button in my sequencer... do I need a special plugin to enable it ?

hahahaha

Yes, the plugin comes as an extra with the Make me a musician bundle.
Obviously you need to apply the other plugs in the chain first, ie, Time Spent, Experience through experimentation, knowledge from research, natural talent, trained ears, decent monitors, commitment beyond reason, and diverse musical understanding.

Some can be sidechained to others.

[Buttman]

How to get (frequency wise) well balanced tracks?
I mean not too much highs or lows or whatever but all very nice and levelled.

I myself often compare my track to something someone else made that I think sounds good. And then take it from that.

i think thats a pretty important one, a good way to start is to reference your whole mix starting with bass and kick, with the amount of air they move i find it easier to work around those elements.
another thing which could be included is how to attract label attention, im in the proces of putting a 3 track demo together and i guess ill just send it out to a&r's? dunno...
