Not to steal the thread but...

when people refer to carving out a space for the vocals using EQ it makes me wonder about songs with a handful of different MC's. If you're actively using subractive EQ to 'carve a pocket' for, say, two different MC's that have completely different voices do you actually automate your EQ?

I've never tried it, but it just seems that that could get a little distracting throughout the course of song with say 5 different MC's...
