🌟Hey, if you're struggling with low-end performance, I might have something in my pack that could help!

Greeting from Psytrance production where each 16th note has steady 40-50hz pulse at 147bpm. If you learn psy kick and bass, you can do anything 😅
Very true 👌
Does it change per bpm what if you were making say dark/psycore/slambient
@@yeahna You mean +160bpm genres? Those usually lack low end due the use of 16th kick that is too short to have low freqs. Basses also tend to be snappy. Different genres have different styles. I'm playing on Psytrance festival in few weeks, so need to go to check the Hi-Tech stage where BPM is 160-250 🤣
@@digidope haha yeah definetely 160 plus is my preferred. Interesting I'd recommend if you haven't checking out the label the endless knot where they play slambient it's very sub bassy and consistent hits around 180 - 220 it is very heavy dark ambience music with thumping sub bass bass lines. What festival you playing? All the best with it!
@@yeahna Sounds interesting, will check that out. Festival is Kosmos Festival in Finland. D'n'B is also 174bpm and still sub heavy, but the style is very different.
Where was this video for my entire life??? REALLY HELPFUL Thank You!!
I've always wanted a full walkthrough of this in one place! Wonderfully explained 🙌
I just sit with my popcorn for each new delivery you give us. Simply amazing, simply enjoyable while learning. The only problem I face after your explanations is trying to emulate it with my DAW and the plugins that I use :D
Thank you!
Haha awesome!
Really enjoying this channel, thanks for the extra level of detail you go in to, extremely interesting, I’m learning a lot, thanks for putting the info out here!
This is an awesome explanation, im working on balancing everything, had no idea how much goes into just kick and bass. I like your track as well, its a bop.
You have helped me grow in music in just days vs other producers. Thank you!!!
Really great to hear that, happy to help!
Great job on creating an amazing video filled with valuable information! Congratulations!
Love your videos. Thanks for making them. Most efficient and very informative.
I heared about most of them, but it really helps to see those techniques side by side!
tnx a lot :)
Beautifully explained. Thanks, Alice.
Can't WAIT to watch and study this tomorrow during my learning!
Gold as always (You know me as Sticky, I've been watching you since the olden times, and you still smash it every time)
sooo spot on and needed, tysm!! ♥
Glad to see GPU Audio in your video 😊
Great advanced tips. Thanks for sharing!
If you use a pluck bass and a kick, you can also ditch the note the note of the bass that lines up with the kick entirely. This gives a lot of seperation. But if you lack glue because of this, you can either invrease the tail of the kick, or you can you can use the previously mentioned glue compression and saturation techniques to glue them
Wow, fascinating and helpful. Thanks.
The explanation is so good. Thanks for sharing your knowlege. 👍
Great video. Lots of really good knowledge!! Thank You!!!!
thorough & understandable as always,, thanks Alice,,
Another amazing content! You could make a video showing how you mix your kick and bass for each genre
Thanks a lot for the info in this vídeo, its very hard to find people teaching the very fundamentals theorys, knowing it is key to make better music
very well done video. It helped me a lot, thank you!
Excellent tips! Thanks for sharing. ♡
Thanks a lot for the video. It helped a lot. 🙏🏼
Such a good breakdown and tips, thank you
These tips are very useful thankyou!!
Great summary! Thanks
Thank you Alice for the tips.👍
Awesome video as ever, top quality content right here. I love the drawing strategy, its very educational.
Tip: you could use your setup mic to record your voice over the video takes using the hand, pen and board for the image. The quality of record will be the same on the entire video.
Thank you so much. The best tutorial on the subject I have found. ALL the other people just drag and drop then try to sell you their shitty sample packs. They never really show how top produce.
Your videos are really helpful, thank you so much
Happy to hear that!
I especially use the low end bus glue technique, but saw some new things I like to try. Very informative video. Thanx. Could you do some more Bus compression video's, I would like to see how you handle a synth bus with saturation, EQ and compression.
Great video, thank you❤
Another great video. Thanks.
Thank you. Always a pleasure. Love and light 💜
Same to you!
hey! i really appreciate the subtitle. for someone like me whose first language isn't english it's really helpful. thanks!
ONE OF THE BEST TEACHERS ON THE INTERNET
Thanks for theoric explanations. Really much appreciated. Lots of chan's are just giving the copycat methods. I wanna understand not copying so you're helping really.
Thank yoU!!! Helps me a lot!!
Thx for the video!
I just discovered your channel through YT shorts. Very cool content :) Keep it up pls
Mixing some speed-thrash-antimetal, and this is going to really help!!! Our bass guitar is sooo huge and we have blast beats at 208. Allthough I won’t be doing exactly as you say, im taking your great explanations with a grain of salt to inspire my mix
İnanılmazsın gerçekten ya !!! Videosuz bırakma bizi , senin sayende hit müzik yapmaya daha yakınız !
😊🙌
I love how your editing style is just like your music style
Great vid!
Great tips!
Alice I love all your vids!
What Ive been stuck on lately is the tone of my bass/sub. I made a bass patch with Operator, In headphones I think it sounds great, same on my small monitors and it looks good in Tonal Balance, but in my car its off (too subby or not clean). Then the other day I found a patch through a project file that uses operator and it sounds so much better and Im still not sure why. Any thoughts on how to train the ear for that type of thing? Its been messing up a lot of my tracks???
awesome tutorial !
Your explanation is very good.
Thank you very much, here from Brazil.
😃
Cheers to Brazil! 🙌
Dope! You know your stuff.
Wow, great video! The world really does need more content addressing low end. I'm a huge fan of using Pultec-style EQs generally and have been using the Bettermaker 232D on my low mids and side highs to control low end and stereo imaging before I get into final tonal balancing. That parallel distortion thing though... 🤔
Do you know the plugin 2BPlayed Lowend friend ? It's a plugin based on the Pultec trick with some extras. Really interesting.
8:35 this is one of the best techniques that i ever seen on the topic, thank u!!
Great tips! Cheers from California USA
Gracias Alice!!! 🙏
This is actually pretty good stuff.
'Separation'. Always enjoy your content..
thanks alot !!!!!!!!!! best tutorial on ytb !!!
Good description with the graphs
I like showing visuals, great to hear that it helps! 😊
holy sheeshhh thank you so much!!!
thank you very much teacher 🙏
Wonderful vid
First minute alone explained it in a way I haven’t seen yet
thanks Alice!!! 🙏🏾💥💫
Great video. First time watching u. It would be great if u play the samples back to back.. orgininal then the tweak one so i can hear the difference better. Great explanation loved it❤
thx for all u do to educate my old brain , and u look so fine now , keep on Alice
It would be great to have a tutorial on mrak's method for drums and bass, how he creates that dramatic atmosphere :)
Thanks for your work
Amazing.
Idk about the UAD one, but with the other Pultec emulations I've used you HAVE TO turn on oversampling as well to get the boost/cut trick to work. You'll get a little bit of an effect without it, but the difference is night and day once it's on so def check and see if your UAD one is the same! Could seriously change the effect for ya! Boosting and cutting the same frequency will add some serious thump with oversampling on.
I'm studying a lot of mixing and to be honest it's the most difficult part for me. I can't really listen the differences of most of things you're doing. I'm using a professional monitor and everything but oh boy, this shit is haaaard!
Drawing waves is great, but explaining what actually goes on with the speaker, makes phase cancellation much easier to understand.
In a speaker, sound is produced by the movement of the diaphragm back and forth, creating waves of compression (pushing air) and rarefaction (pulling air to shape the sound). When two sound waves are in phase, their compressions and rarefactions align, reinforcing each other and producing a clear, strong sound. However, if sound waves are out of phase, the speaker attempts to do both things at the same time, pusing and shaping at the same time, resulting your sound, sounding like ass.

Big up!
Seni her izlediğimde gurur duyuyorum sevgili Alice Yalçın. Keep up the good work.
any tip on how to add more bands when doing an automation process in ableton with the fab filter. I just cant find a way to add another band to a new automation. i Can do one solo automation with 1 selected band but i dont find a way to add more bands and create a separate automation process. Help :) ty
wow love it love you.🤩🤩🤩🤩
Nice video 👌👌👌👌👌👌
What about phase cancellation in last method?
just what i needed as im working on this section on a track...
Hope it helps ✌
Hello! Were you glue-compressing just the bass group (at 06:30)? Or would you recommend glue-compressing the kick and bass together? I have heard otherwise
Trance track at 6:05? :D btw again love your tutorials Alice!! Glad to be working with your label as well
Cheers Jack! I am glad you release with our label! 💯
Wow ❤🔥👏
I do the hyper glue bitwiggers preset method and also use loudness split spectral suite tool in bitwig. That works pretty good
Bitwig has amazing unique features.
@@matthiaslachmund3303 it does I love it
Great video! At 5:14 when you do Alice´s pultec method, is this just a normal EQ applied to the kick/bass buss? Can I do the same with abletons EQ?
Yes, you can
What track did you put the shaper box on?
Alice for president❤. Best, random synthwave producer
This video was super interesting and useful. Thank you! I only have 1 question. In music with faster tempos and a more aggressive sound (I write Metal stuff), would you change some approaching particular? For example, I would have to be more careful with the release time to avoid muddy in the low end
What the other guy said but also in slow parts automate a plugin like Waves Rbass and the volume on the kick and/or the bass, maybe even automate a low shelf band of an EQ. If you want to get really spicy, throw a sub drop at it.
@AntonioDB_FS awesome, I wasn't THAT lost then. Thank you very much, man. I'm starting the process a new track for my band and I think it will be the perfect excuse to try these things
@benkerley1014 Yep! I really want to try that expansion and compression shell below 100hz.
Sadly I don't have RBass, but I will have to get it sooner or later because no one recommends any other low frequency exciter besides that one. It has some kind of irreplaceable magic hahaha
Thank you very much for you help men 🫶
One question: In Oldskool method why is the EQ on 410 hz? Thanks in advance :)
yall should try align kick n sub bass phase too!
is the pultec on the master or a bus for the just low end?

Thanks Alice!
rus guide tomorrow ?
What happened to the GPU Audio plugins? It seems they took all of them out of their webpage, do you know why?
I don’t even make EDM and I find every one of Alice’s videos so useful! Awesome stuff. Thank you Alice!
She doesn’t make EDM either.

Does it ever make sense to combine the side-chain and glue method together? side chain followed by glue?
Yes!!! It's very good... that's what I use in my tracks
Nice video! Wat is the name of the track 3:40? It sound really nice
Did you edev used all techniques in one track ? Or how you know which technique to use ? ;(
3:40 what genre is that? and has this song been uploaded?
Superrrrrrrrer
