Truth.

My stuff is sparse. I have found that it helps to get stuff on stereo tracks with carefully thought out panning. An acoustic guitar on a stereo track with a bit of delay to give it some real estate may have its reverb send panned a bit differently and the return from a parallel compressor panned creatively as well.
