Ive always been told: ''everything has to be mono compatible'' ''is has to be in phase''
But sometimes I found pro producers with synths or other instruments in their song that are completely out of phase. But it sounds really good.
How important is mono compatibility nowadays? Everyone is listening on stereo soundsystems (headphones, earbuds etc) and most clubs have stereo soundsystem as well.
I understand that your bass/kick/snare/hi hats etc have to be in mono, because it just sounds better, but a really freaking wide synth can sound really good.
Heres an example of a producer I look up to, hes a producer for drake, has some official remixes of big rappers, so you can say hes a ''pro'', but his synth at the start is completely out of phase. Is this wrong? Or not?
