    Loudness level is such a frustration point for me because I want to compete commercially. I’ve spent countless hours compressing, playing with Ozone 9 settings, and trying different bounce settings/outputs. Thank you so much Devvon for this insight! Please keep making videos on how we can bring our music as close to a commercial level as possible, when it comes to volume, clarity reverb and eq. The devil is truly in the details and one wrong move here brings our mixes back to an amateur level 😔

    you can also EQ the kick to carve out space for 808, sub, bassline and other instruments (sidechaining also solves a lot of these issues)

    Its so insane u posted this video because Ive been mixing for almost 10 years at home and I legitly just figured out... on my own... that bass was eating up my headroom and since I did find that out my mixes have been exceptionally cleaner at the loud volumes I master my tracks to (-13 lufs).

    this is what i needed to see. my kicks was killing the mix for sure. right after this video went off i went to one of my mixes and just lower the kick a little i think like 2.1 dp lower and man it made every thing blend to gather better. i threw a nls bus on the master and raise the trim up like 2.1db and damn every thing still sounded so good to gather. to me u are a god for this video here man

  • @boringsnds
    @boringsnds 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video! I love how the mix goes from sounding like a soundcloud demo to nice and polished just by lowering the volume of the kick. Loudness aside, it just sounds so much better actually. This is one of those small tips that I wish someone would've told me a loooong time ago.
