First time attempting to mix a track. By "effects" I mean reverb, delay, compression, etc. Everything except for EQ. As far As I know an optimal list of steps of mixing goes like:
1. Gain Staging
2. Leveling
3. EQ
But for effects, when should you apply those in the mixer tracks to process your sound? I imagine you add effects first because, effects can raise or lower the volume in the mixer track??? Then you Gain Stage to level every track to the same volume, then you adjust level faders, then EQ? Not really 100 percent sure though where Effects fit in the procedure????
