Most software instruments allow you to bypass their inbuilt processors (reverbs, stereo enhancers, delays, etc). Try tweaking those first. If you don't have control over the processing try a combination of EQs and imaging plugins (that allow you to decrease the size or stretch of a sound on the stereo stage, Waves S1 for example).
One of the coolest tricks I've come across is to start mixing in mono (EQs, compression and sometimes reverbs too) and then open the mix out into stereo once you've got most of the elements in place spectrally. This can be achieved by using the 'Mono' switch on the console (if you have one) or a plugin that converts a stereo signal to mono signal or if your DAW supports true pan control then pan the left and right output channel to the center. Although, it would be ideal if you can mix in true mono - with one centrally placed speaker. Your mixes will sound a lot more cleaner and will definitely be a lot more mono compatible this way. |
