This is known as frequency sculpting and can be applied across the 
entire audio spectrum. If two things occupy the same band of 
frequencies, then they will interfere with each other. EQ each 
instrument so that its main characteristic sound occupies its own 
spectrum and everything will be clear, even in mono. So mix in mono to 
get your frequecy sculpting done and then pan things in stereo (5.1?) to 
give each item a physical space.

Please save me 70 quid (plus air fare from the US, hotel, meals, etc.) 
and give some details about these.
