I like to think I'm good at both, I enjoy tracking and mixing . As far what some of what was said, I think of mixing and for that matter production as an aural film, either you're doing a documentary or you're telling a story and creating an illusion. Figuring out the right ambience sometimes is tough, but when you get it right it's one of the elements that can take the song from a recording to being a "record". I also think to be a good mixer you have to think like a producer.
