I'd probably experiment with all the techniques in this video. Maybe even mix and match depending on the instrument and genre. But my core approach would be to gain stage the track, but the limiter seems like a good option too. However, less plug-ins used is desirable for me. I do photography and I usually say "if I have to retouch it, it's not a good picture". So same applies to recording, the better your initial input recording is the easier the mixing will be.
You pretty much covered all my faves, great video. I might add, make a buss (or group) of the kick and bass, and send it to an analog tape emulator. (I use Softube Tape, because of its amazing extended controls.) This does some friendly clipping management on the peaks, and glues them together a bit more. I keep it subtle, not smashing the ‘tape’ (usually!). I’m just looking to consolidate the movement of the bass frequencies, and make them speak like one thing, not chunk them all together and blow them out. EQing the bass and kick properly to make sure there isn’t lots of overlap is crucial to a good end result, because processing mud like this just sounds worse.
This is one of the best and most amazing tutorials on youtube. I've watched hundreds if not thousands and this was so informative! Thank you. A lot of videos present themselves as a master class when in reality they're just three or four minutes with a few tips. This truly is a comprehensive master class and I really appreciate it.
This is one of the best FREE tutorials ever. Someone would take bad money for so much talk and tips. Honestly i know all these things, but its digested so nicely, that i had to look till the end.
Wow. Coming from someone who has been extremely frustrated with the overwhelming amount of decisions that can be made at any given moment this has been a very practical and useful video. Thanks
I did about 5 bass runs and mixed them down to mp3 sent them to my phone and one of them sounded fantastic so I did a song and used that same setting but when mixed down to a mp3 and sent to my phone it was terrible so my conclusion is frequency effecting frequency . Good video , much needed
The more i started making individual tracks with better utilization of plugins than any preset chains or series processes, then saved those as presets meant to be used with little tweaks, the worse they sounded when used outside the original individual track... i had to go back to basics and this time be comfortable with different techniques and their plugins with a familiarity as tho they are numbers on the number line. Having an approach/technique in your toolbelt with an effective simplicity to your hand as a hammer or flathead, as opposed to being a 'Dewalt impact 3000 flubberjug with a 1849572728 torx adapter' makes at the very least a rough estimate towards the start of a track with what each component is gonna do later on in the final stages with its own little frequency dominion a dope guideline within the vision youre fleshing out in an individual track If something hard becomes easy, it didnt become easy, you became hard to fail
this is the best mxing tutorial ive ever seen on youtube, this format is perfect and easy to digest, can you please do the same with highs and mids ? hope this becomes a series.
This is the best lesson I have ever seen about producing and mixing of low end. Simply and well explained in technical terms. I learned a new thing today about frequencies and this must help me to sound better. Really thanks for this lesson
Great video! I love your way of explaining things: direct, concise, and with very well worked examples. Thank you very much for sharing so much knowledge!
Everything in one excellent video…each topic is very well explained. This will definitely help lots of people. I personally pick and use one of these techniques on my mixes depending on whatever comes to mind that day.
GREAT tutorial. I think you covered all of them here, and they all apply depending on your genre and application. Personally, I tend to go with the sidechain compression or sidechain multiband, when I've found 2 that fit together. Then I bus the 2 together and parallel compression them for some extra control. It depends on the genre and desired effect.
Wavespacer doesn’t compress anything. It’s simply a dynamic multiband EQ. Personally i use dynamic EQ for crafting kick and bass on almost every mix. I use sidechain compression almost never, because i just want to get frequencies out of the way, not add any dynamics that weren’t there before. If i want dynamics, i usually do that first, then use dynamic EQ after. Just sounds cleaner to me.

Hands down - the best tutorial on low end mixing. Thank You! I always wondered is there any way to make bass more consistent? I've purchased all these compressors, from modern to analogue tube ones. Yeah, those are great when you want that attitude, but they don't keep that dynamic intact, where is literally barely visible change in volume between notes. Haven't tried to use brickwall limiter on bass. Maybe it's a solution to all my struggles. Thank You!
Great video Would this method also work on Vocals please as I have a frequency in my vocal low end that sticks out.. its the only thing holding me back 😢
@@drinkinslim Not an opinion. There is no god.It is an opinion if you believe there is one. Ok then prove it. Where is your empirical and objective evidence?.
am tech house enthusiast, almost 1 years fight with muddy mixes, & never get fixed . then some of friends tell me "buy a decent studio monitor, i've got m40x," and it's cure my mixes a lot. what i've done with my old cheap trsh headphone is trying to get huge bass without tweak it them
Hi , i am currently working on my project , There is a bridge section,in which i want the final chorus (with all elements excluding vox) with a drum spill kind of thing .Everything of chorus should sounds like i have recorded them like a overhead track. I dont know how to do that can you explain me how can i achieve that
@@sammavendano7425, I have an iMac. Window 1 is the editing window. I just couldn’t think of the name when I typed the question, so I just said window 1.
Yeah it would be nice to see someone mixing something recorded in a crap room with a cheap interface. That’s mostly the recordings I get. It does get a little frustrating watching tutorial after tutorial of someone showing how to mix something that’s already tonally balanced. That aside, this guy’s videos are some of my favorite. I especially like his organizational stuff.
I should add that I made this comment before actually watching the video. To his defense, he’s just using samples from Logic in this tutorial. So I’d say this isn’t the same as videos like, say, Chris Lorde Alge explaining how to mix guitars when he’s mixing tracks that were produced with the best of the best equipment. Those are the most annoying videos to watch. This isn’t that.
@@cbrooks0905 bro.. this tutorial is gold in terms of learning board spectrum of audio analysis. What are you talking about? Instead of showing negativity, learn to make the best sounding tones yourself in your capability. Why do people follow Lord Alge? Of course to get legend insights. Hardly anyone will reach his level.
What are some of your favorite low end mixing tips?

Roll off the low end on your REVERB, especially on the drums.

I’m just on my break from working on a mix while really struggling with the low end and got this recommended

Definitely good content
Your are really wonderful. Thank you so much.

do you have a mixing degree?

May God The Almighty bless.....

You could try mixing on your m40x using TB Morphit or similar headphone correction software.

How did you change the background to light grey in window 1? That's way easier on the eyes.
This is Logic, the real question is how did you get it to work on Windows?

Gain stage and see what needs to be tweaked. It's not as hard as these youtubes make it out to be.
Great video but that third tracks bass sound was god awful 😂
Your videos are really well explained and informative ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
