    That’s super interesting hearing your thoughts on how to mix while you go. I track a lot in Cubase and also try to mix on the fly but have been wanting to send out some songs for mixing...I am always lost on what to send as far as stems so I never end up sending anything because of the confusion.

  • @jakeskate1998
    @jakeskate1998 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    hey, i think it would be really useful if you made a video showing a kind of arrangement checklist. Meaning, we get so much mixing advice on TH-cam but I'm starting to realize more that the arrangement is even more important than the mix, if you could show like making sure all frequencies are covered, creating space and fullness basically everything you need to get right in the production to be able to then get a killer mix

    • @MakePopMusic
      @MakePopMusic  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Arrangement is all down to the song at hand and taste. I think the only thing I can teach to help with that is how to identify what different elements are, how to use elements together, how to tweak elements to fit together, and just showing as many examples as possible. Check out some of our longer How To Make _____ videos! They cover a ton on arrangement!

  • @JestaHs07

  • @challyss7
    @challyss7 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey, one question i have. When you were saying you track organic rhythms and what not, my timing is normally off by a bit and i dont quantize it for the sake of keeping it sounding natural. But the problem i run into is when i track numerous things without quantizing it sounds messy and amateurish the more layered sounds i put. So my question to you is how do you go about correcting or avoiding an issue like that?

  • @hepthd5245
    @hepthd5245 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Austin, big fan of the channel. I have a question. How do you gage when there is too many instruments in the song? the amount of layers you have is super complex and for me it seems really overwhelming. Also, do you ever feel the need to highpass instruments as some of your instruments don't have it. I go to university in London and they always say to high pass but I just want to know from someone who actually does this for a living what your point of view is and if you have any tips. Cheers!!

    • @MakePopMusic
      @MakePopMusic  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I just add what is needed to complement the vocal. Sometimes I add a ton and then scale back once we get a vocal in. Sometimes a song is perfect with 8-12 tracks. Sometimes it’s 200. It’s just about learning, when, where, why, and how to use elements in your productions.

    I have a question about vocal do we need to edit and tuning every vocal specialy when working with a great singer does it need to do some editing and tuning or just leave it as it is???
    I mean singers like Sam Smith or Bruno Mars who are great singers do they tune their vocal???

    • @MakePopMusic
      @MakePopMusic  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It depends on the song at hand. If it’s a ballad with live instruments, you can get away without tuning much. In a big pop arrangement where everything is pitch perfect, I’d still be fine tuning the best singers in the world.
