I really wish this channel existed years ago when I was making music full time. I had a difficult time conceptualizing some of these techniques and you’ve really lifted the guesswork out of it. I’m inspired to work on music again because you’ve helped make it more accessible and understandable. Thanks you are doing a great service for your viewers.
Thank you so much, this message means a world to me! I am really stoked my videos reigned your passion for music and motivated you to start making it again! 🙂
Been producing for over a decade. Been signed multiple times. I'm a lifelong learner. I must say your tutorials are some of the best on the platform. This is the real information. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge. I understand part of this is marketing for your other courses, but your free content is literally life-changing information for new producers. Thank you for doing what you do.
Man, I was looking for a tutorial loke this for so much...that in the end if stopped to search. I'm really happy to have found your channel today, as the information is really gold. Knowing how sounds translate on a speaker, and how to make them sound as we want on them is really important in this genres...finally there's someone sharing this valuable info. Thank you ♥
I rarely put comments in any video I watch in TH-cam, this one deserves a tons of positive comments. Really, I can't describe in words how educational this video is. Thanks a lot for this. I learned a lot.
Thank you so much, Tiago, I really appreciate kind words of support and stoked to hear you found my video helpful! Anything else you’d like me to cover on my channel?
@@EDMTips quite hard question, because you have videos about everything on music production. However, as I beginning, I’m struggling with melody and sound production as well as the right moment to add stab, plug or pad in the track. Thank you for asking by the way.
It's easy to overdo it sometimes, but after a while it gets a lot better. My speaker port was broken for a long time so I made music on some terrible speakers, I went back to check everything I made on that, and the kick adsr was by far the biggest overal issue. It made me realize something, though... It can be worth it to keep more decay/sustain/release on other frequencies, depending on the kind of kick and track. In most house kicks etc. it's mostly just the lows that last long anyway, but for hiphop, for example, it can be a way to keep some of the character of those kicks even in tracks where they shouldn't dominate the low end. Of course, it's also common to layer sounds with multiple sources, a real kick drum's ~300hz + with some nice sustain over a tight bassy kick is great for mixing in an organic sound, for example. Noise can also be great, as usual!
Thanks for sharing here. I agree to kick adsr. I‘m using good headphones + sound Id reference plugin to finally hear the details, which was impossible before in my untreated room and monitors.
Yes indeed. This clip right here was super helpful to me. th-cam.com/video/7LvO-8lzog4/w-d-xo.html Being able to balance out the low end of the kick using "Span" both audibly and visually really helped my track stand out. This is my first ever produced track and I've now got my head down learning how to Master it. I've found something I really enjoy learning about so your vid was icing on the cake. Thanks! @@EDMTips
@@EDMTips Well, I think I am a professional engineer, after working with audio for thirty years. (You know, no-one should say this professional Blabla. Just want to make clear, that I was working for customers with recording, mixdown and mastering. Music is my first love, but I am not a musician, so this is why I am searching to improve my production skills. I want to start making my own music, after years having no time for my own little project. And YES, your Videos are really great, you're a cool guy and it's fun to see you enjoying your own music :-) Have a nice week.
Best video on the internet about this topic, I can't find anything similar, and helped me A LOT to achieve a really good sound, I just finished my first track using this technique, and sounds fantastic!
@EDMTips At 9:50 you open two SPANs. If you are able to route 2 Tracks into the same SPAN you can benefit from its "multi-channel analysis": "SPAN supports multi-channel analysis, and can be set to display spectrums from two different channels or channel groups at the same time. Spectrum's color can be chosen to taste." This might come handy.

This IS GOLDEN! I'd been working myself towards finding a similar system and seeing it here makes me glad. I hadn't thought of track keys, which is a super plus too. Maybe if I down pitch up pitch the reference track in ableton and keep the warping it can work for that too.
Hey Fella! Huge thanks for this tut. I am making music for years now and I have seen a bunch of great tips n tricks. I love those sub heavy genres and I could not figure it out why my tracks lack energy and it was the very first time I checked the low end of my track and the reference and boom. I gues this technique can be used for every frequency ranges, that was gamechanger for me, thank you very much I cannot tell U how happy I was when I first noticed that sound, you know, when u go in the club, and u only hear the lowend at the enterance while u buyin your tickets, but this time it was my track on the filter oo my gosh thank you sir!
@@EDMTips Sir even tough I am not so interested in the genre u produce in, I am watching your videos, you are one of the greatest tutors right now and share dope ideas. Thank you very much for this content!
I was wondering how to display two SPAN at the same time. To do this, go to the preferences and set the following "multiple plugin windows" AN. Hide plugin window OFF. And open plugin window ON. Then it works.

@@EDMTips Thank you so much Will! I really appreciate that! I have a lot more releases coming this year! :) I’m a lot more technical with stuff especially in mixing, so this video is a great example of that! I use span a lot on mid/side and always watching my phase and low end!
Thanks for the video. In your mix you already go for maximum loudness, not necessarily in your mastering process, so a reference track should be played at is full volume.
Mmm, I love that idea of showing the examples one after the other. 😍 It's always a struggle to visualize these concepts but damnnnn your way of teaching them is PROPAH.
Whoa! I have been struggling with low end mixing for the last year and wasted hours of mixing mistake upon mixing mistake. But I just tried this method for the first time and it's absolute gold. I barely did any mixing and my mix sounds infinitely better (driving energy). Thanks again Will!
Usually I just take bass sounds and kick sounds and cut between 150 to 200hz out of them and cut a little bit of the high mids from other sounds like strings (the high pitched aliasing just makes it sound worse) so my vocals can come through without interference
It's common advice to hear "use a reference track," but not so common to learn exactly HOW to work with one, and using free/standard stuff no less. Thank you!
Please let me know. Should I put a limiter plugin on the output channel strip to increase the volume of the mix. I don't want to think that at the time of mastering the whole mix is out of control in regards of gain. Thank you.
nice video ! how do you sustain that balance through out your own mastering process ? if you put a compressor on the master, the volume relation of kick and bass is going to change right ?
Compressor on master bus should always generally not working too hard and not effect an already reasonably balanced track too much. And if you've balanced it well, then high passing the compressor to leave the bass alone is worth doing too.

Hey this tutorial was veryyy helpful! I've got one little question. How you open the two span's at the same time? If I open one the other one vanished...
Hey, what computer are you using? The link in the description only leads to the apple amazon page, but doesn't show any details, what model you use. So I'd be thankful for those information. Have a nice day and keep up the great work.
Ik heb nog moeiten met welke geluiden bij elkaarpassen en achorden en wat moet pannen en stereo Mono zetten en fluganers flagus gebruiken dan denk als snap sweep maken
Fantastic video. I've already started using this :) I've got a couple of question - I wondered if you could explain why the reference is gained down to -18Lufs & the kick of the work in progress is set to peak at -12db? I realise the ref would be at a mastered level, so louder than the other track, but is there a reason why these particular levels are chosen? Also, what type of metering is used in Span? The kick is peaking at -12db on the master, but hitting at -36 in Span? I wondered what the difference in this metering is? If anyone can help with those questions, that would be awesome :)

After I learned the bass decay tuning to release energy the tracks got much better

this tutorial was veryyy helpful! I've got one little question. How you open the two span's at the same time? If I open one the other one vanished...
Great question! I am having a new short on how to do it shortly, so keep your eyes peeled for that one 🙂
Hey, what computer are you using? The link in the description only leads to the apple amazon page, but doesn't show any details, what model you use. So I'd be thankful for those information.
Have a nice day and keep up the great work.
Ik heb nog moeiten met welke geluiden bij elkaarpassen en achorden en wat moet pannen en stereo Mono zetten en fluganers flagus gebruiken dan denk als snap sweep maken
I need to watch this several times to grasp the concept....honestly my mixes have all this problem
Fantastic video. I've already started using this :) I've got a couple of question - I wondered if you could explain why the reference is gained down to -18Lufs & the kick of the work in progress is set to peak at -12db? I realise the ref would be at a mastered level, so louder than the other track, but is there a reason why these particular levels are chosen?
Also, what type of metering is used in Span? The kick is peaking at -12db on the master, but hitting at -36 in Span? I wondered what the difference in this metering is?
If anyone can help with those questions, that would be awesome :)
I actually just watched "14 mixing tips" where you explained both these things :)
