How to make a balanced mix in both mono and stereo?

Mixing

Hi Josh :slight_smile:

Iā€™m having a struggle with making a mix that will be balanced in both stereo and mono. a lot of times an instrument that is balanced in stereo suddenly would feel too quiet, and when I fix the volume in mono it would feel too loud in stereo. that would mostly happen with instruments that have wide stereo (like pads) , or have stereo movement, or even just panned . What should I do?

Thank you very much and have a lovely day!

Hey Odelya!

That tends to be the way it is with mono - there may some small tricks you can try, but the most important thing to me is to get the mix sounding and feeling right in stereo.
