    Everyone has their own mixing style; if it sounds good, keep at it. Personally, EQs are my primary weapon. I've done mixes without everything else (no volume faders, fx, etc...), but I've never done a mix without using EQs.

    Step 1 : Learn to beatmatch and do snap mixes (really short)
    Step 2 : Learn to maintain tempo sync for a really long time (2-3 minutes) and mix
    Step 3 : Realise that you need to use EQ to help mix such long transitions

    Mixer EQs aren't to make up for deficiencies in your PA setup (your FOH EQ should be doing that) and they're not to make up for deficiencies in mastering.

    And as a general rule in production, live sound and DJing you should never BOOST eq, only cut. Boosting will screw up your gain structure like all sorts of hell.
