It`s very simple really.
Structure your track right from the beginning at the correct gain levels. (not actual visual structure but your gain structure)
You`ll find that by keeping headroom on all your channels, you`ll end up with a mix that is not in the red and clipping.
You`ll learn how to fit the sounds into place by eqing correctly.
Your results will also be repeatable because you will get a better ear for a good sounding mix.
