Are YOU Making This Crucial Ambient Mixing Mistake?

In my experience, the biggest issue ambient artists have when mixing are related to phase. It's a topic I knew intuitively, but have had difficulty explaining, so I went deep on research this week to enable me to teach it to you! I'm still wrapping my head around the technical aspects, so please excuse me if I've made any mistakes in my explanation, but hopefully this goes some way to demystifying for you how phase cancellation happens, and the ways to troubleshoot it in your mixes. Nailing good phase will make it MUCH easier to get a good stereo image, and less mushy-sounding mixes!
