have you looked at a pro track you enjoy and see if they "fill" their entire box up? I cant imagine that every freq all the time needs to be at 100% lol

You're right, but there's still that whole deal about perceived loudness and fullness of the track...and op, let's hear the track so we could give you an answer

I've been working on this for a few days now. The track isn't finished yet but i'll upload it for you to hear. I havn't mastered it yet so it might sound a little bit unclean. Give me your thoughts, but go gentle i worked hard on it. :D
