@@justincase3307 Thank you... my type of stuttering is that I often repeat complete words a few times whilst thinking and of course the worst parts are edited... :-)
This is great matthias! I have watched hundreds of videos online and bought courses, yet this is one of the best explanations on how and what to listen for when mixing a track. Ofcourse loads of topics could be explained in more detail, but since you already have such detailed other videos on most of these topics one will easily up their level! i have said it once, and now again... You are one of the most rewarding "teachers" on RUclips to learn from. This channel has been so insightfull for me and others you cannot imagine the huge impact it has on all of us. In fact, my first release will soon be announced ,which wasn't possible without your help.
I watch later but now i have tip for all of us, its more important than the mix. First of all, before mixing, you should check equipment such as headphones, speakers. There are no perfectly flat ones on the market, so no matter what equipment you have, go google and look for a frequency response for your gear. It gives you an overview of which bands are too loud and which should be cut. Unfortunately, no matter how good your hearing is, you won't move on with your mixes without checking it. Cheers
Thank you, these are the details that nobody else will spend the time to go through that are easily missed by us newcomers. Excellent content and explanations.👍
I was looking for this kind of video for 36 hours after I wanted to learned mixing stuff. Finally. I wish to meet you in real, and shake your hand bro! Because of your brilliant video. This is what I neeeeeed nnnoooowww! Thank you so much.

Woah this really helped me more than I thought it would, being a native English speaker I think you did an amazing job portraying the lesson I really enjoyed it your English is awesome man . Looking forward to implementing these techniques you've shown and up my level
Thank you. Eye opening tutorial. after watching so many mixing videos and mixing tips and achieving nothing at all, today, I realized how simple it is to get good results using the right approach. Congratulations and God bless you for giving such gold information for free
I was about to write that your video was as good as always, but... it's not! It's way better! It felt like directly sitting next to a teacher, catching up all the details which are going on in his mind. The way you name those sounds you don't like - fantastic! So I hope I can encourage you to keep up with this format - it's definitely heading into the right direction!
You are building a powerful nation with your tutorials, thank for the good job you are doing, you will archive a lot of reward soon.please do a video on vocals mixing and reverb Technics on vocals.
Very good video... vielen dank! This format is great.. As a subscriber I would love more in depth content like this. I am quite sure your subscriber base will grow rapidly.
Very nice video i am thankful about your effort to show us and to make us more clear about how we need to think about the mix like whole picture , i wait for more , cheers 🙏
Thank you for the excellent video Matthias. I always thought peak levels should be at least -1 lufs for streaming loud songs. Yours was -0.1. Also do you have a target for loudness range?
I just brought in "Loudness" in general ...not just for streaming services... The LUF system correlates to the db system so all you have to do for streaming services is to pull the Master fader down to -1db before rendering the version you want to upload where -1db LUFS is demanded...
Wait, You're not a robot? :D I had that thougt hearing very first few seconds of the very first video You made :D Very happy to see You, Sensei - lemmie grab some beer and have another lesson :) Cheers!
@@flstudiotricks6903 Oh You doing very well thrust me. The thing that You're channel haven't bust open trough the 'ranks' yet is a bummer. You present the points in electronic music creation that not only are not the type of 'how to sound like *not me*'' or 'you just like twist te third knob here and the firs one down there and your set', but are just CRITICALY IMPORTANT, specially when you into 'building the foundations' stage. I really wish You a waaay bigger audience. You're literally at the level of expertiese WITH THE SKILL TO PRESENT IT in convienient way in TOP 3, or rather top 1 alongside Dan Worrel, and Gregory Scott :) Keep it up man!
Awesome Sir TYSM for this tutorial ... I'd appreciate if you take time and make a mixing tutorial on Orchestral music as well as I make Orchestral and Ethnic fusion Hiphop but when it comes to mixing i m preplexed how and where I should keep the low strings from the 808 if I should sidechain them and then again if I side chain them then why keep them in the first place because the creative me likes that jarring of the low strings with the 808.. so mostly confused how I should go about it... Thanks Love your videos and your voice.
Amazing. Thank you for the tutorial. I just have 1 question ? Is there any peak or RMS level you aim for on each instrument before you proceed to cleaning the sounds ? Or is it okay for each sound to go into the mixer with it's on signal ?
28:48 be careful when you add distortion / saturation effects like waveshaper, etc.. sure you are adding harmonics but you have to eq the sound again afterwards because it creates aditional lowend frequencies just make sure to control that again with EQ at the end of your processing chain ;) Amazing video! Keep up with the great content🔥🔥
I wasn´t sure and just had an A/B in the project: It doesn´t create any additional low end at all... at least not with my minor settings... Basically Distrotion is not able to create stuff "underneath"... it can just add stuff "above" as harmonics cannot be underneath the fundamental...
Your mix need low end everything need low end. Just know how to deal with that. Some famous engineer hp only at 36hertz on all instrument. This tutorial is how to get a steril mix
I noticed that a low cut filter on a kick makes the sub tail longer (in zero latency mode). This sometimes causes problems with sidechaining if you stack multiple EQs on the kick.
Yes this can happen depending on your settings... As a filter is at the very end a delay it adds one wave cycle to the signal which is at low frequencies already quite some time... Nonetheless I never went into trouble as I always first treat the kick and adapt the bass to the kick...
This was fantastic to watch! When you’re giving each sound their own place on the frequency spectrum what benefit is there to have the click of the kick in the same range as the hi hats? Does it not interfere?
Thank you... The higher you go in the frequency spectrum the less isues you get with overlapping sounds especially if they are so short like the click if the kick... Second: The only issue you have to take care of is that overlapping sounds can raise the volume in this area... Luckily especially the use of a clipper works very well as these frequencies are so high that hardly any distortion will be audible and clipping works fantastic on short sounds like the attack of a kick or of a hihat...
Hello, can you make video about new fl studio beta or give a list of changes? (FL studio 21) I can't find any list of changes in the internet even on the Image-Line website and the RUclips videos don't tell much. Sry for bad english
I probably will make some new videos about them but for now you can use this link to inform yourself: forum.image-line.com/viewtopic.php?f=100&t=284604
I'm just a tad bit confused at the high passing of the kick. When the EQ was placed on it, the peak db reading jumped by almost 3db, so in my mind that's losing headroom. Eventually the extra high peak will need to be taken care of via saturation/limiting, so is it purely to free up spectrum space for bass?
You have mixed it up with the volume after I have boosted the 50Hz region... Just the HP filter didn´t change the volume at all! Please watch again from minute 4:00... About the rest: The kick has a much higher priority than the bass and they are not playing together (Bass is sidechain ducked)... IF there are any frequencies in the Kick you don´t like, these you can EQ to make more space for other elements but you will never reduce/limit/ or otherwise reduce wished frequencies in the kick to make room for others...
As I said later on you can of course use anything you like... a normal compressor, LFO tool, the Envelope Controller or Peak Controller and automate a volume control in FLS... I just like Shaperbox the best...
Example: we choose a kick for it's tone / preset character! That way we should envision very well on production how we want to sound in the final! I do not recommend using a EQ and way? Because we have much better tools to shape a little the tone and thats generally what the sound page have embedded!!! In FL or using the knobs and pots from vat ! Way that? Because is normal since we do not record it we sample and twerk it or we synth created! Even Fl offer to many options for kick and all kind of instruments!.but I see people just jump into mixing without no reason before having finished their creation ! Overall they have zero creation and zero inspiration because they have zero prepared production!!!😮 Even then they put hundreds of unnecessary tracks just because they do not know what their doing! And then trying to sound better from the mixing side😮😊❤ I ve seen this in the last 28 years
Question; what do you have on your master when your just producing or coming up with ideas? i can see its just a limiter there, but what purpose does it serve? do you a certain setting for it?
Normally my template master chain is made of 3 plugins: -Fruity Limiter with default settings except Limiter Attack to 0ms - Voxengo SPAN (plus in my case) - Psyscope from fx23.net The only purpose of the Limiter is to catch extreme overshots (can always happen!) and to be an additional volume control which I normally pin to the blank space on the top right hand side... I work normally at a level of about -10dbFS... My audio device is very simple and not very good in amplifying so I use the Volume control of the Limiter to temporarily raise the volume of the song...
@@melorams22 No, I mix the individual channels to a lower volume that I get a sum on the master of about -10dbFS... A peak level of -10dbFS translates often to about -18db RMS which is the mostly the best input level for analog modeled plugins just in case I need one 🙂
From my point of view find sames routine mistakes every producer made ! Trying to mix or to embellish simple things that are meant indeed to be resolved in the production stage! For instance! We choose a sample presets or we struggle to create one as we wish just to use it right ? Not to havely tweek it after all 😅! Is nonsense ❤.I m very clear that this session is a general just to teach someone...what we should learn ?❤
I made a little list: YouLean Loudnessmeter 2 = freeware... no option natively Shaperbox2 = I explained in the video what alternatives there are natively Voxengo SPAN = freeware ... you could use the frequency analyzer in the native plugins like PEQ2 or Maximus but at the very end SPAN does the job much more easy with realtime readouts for the point you hover over etc... GClip = freeware... Maximus does the job just fine too Shaperbox 2 Multiband feature= just use the Envelope Controller on the Frequency Splitter... MDynamicEQ = There are some Patcher presets for... Limiter No.6 = freeware... there is no option for a true peak limiter in FLS but at the very end you can give a shit on true peak limiting ... it´s BS anyway and just use Maximus... But afterall (as I said in the vid for the Dynamic EQ, there is i.e. the freeware "Nova") don´t limit yourself too much ... I already used just stock plugins where it made sense and having 3-4 3rd party plugins (all freeware) in a project isn´t something to worry about... more the opposite!
@@melorams22 Now I know what you mean... I have made my custom preset with High and Low Pass filter enabled instead of the standard shelving filters FL Studio comes with... I use the steep 4 settings for the order and have set the highpass by default to 30Hz and the Lowpass by default to 17500 Hz One thing you have to do though if you change the settings from the default preset: If you change the default shelving filters to high and low pass you have to reset the bandwidth knobs for Band 1 and 7.
L oudness U nits F ull S cale... db is just a scale for measuring sound pressure in general... But we have different "points" where and what to measure... I.e. we have peak level which just tells you how "loud" the loudest peaks of the material is... But peak level doesn´t tell you how loud our hearing feels it to be... Our hearing reacts more to the "average" level than to certain peaks... Before, RMS level was there to measure the actual "Loudness" but RMS measurement has certain flaws when it comes to more bass heavy material... Because of that, Loudness Untis were developed to bring a more accurate measurment on the table...

@@flstudiotricks6903 Oh, I see (and understand). 😃 You should put your time in your favorite tool, that’s for sure. If there is a Bitwig channel in the future let us know. ;-) I use two DAWs, one is (way) more productive and manageable in larger projects and the other is… FL Studio. ;-) I don‘t know… - it’s simply more fun and free. … yes… it‘s „fun“ - but not very productive to get lost in a patcher experiment instead of composing. And without noticing it‘s bed time - three chords done. 😂 But I enjoy my FL Studio time the most of all DAWs - and (even if slowly and sometimes I dont‘t understand the priority/order) the right features appear in FL. In my next holidays i‘ll check out Bitwig for a while. I love exploring DAW und plugins… I just need more time to spare. This industry simply exploded in terms of tools in the last 10 years. It‘s insane. All the best to you!
Seven minutes in and a simple explanation of the "knocking" within kick drums instantly cleared my mix. Incredible.🙌

I have made my custom preset with High and Low Pass filter enabled instead of the standard shelving filters FL Studio comes with...
I use the steep 4 settings for the order and have set the highpass by default to 30Hz and the Lowpass by default to 17500 Hz
One thing you have to do though if you change the settings from the default preset:
If you change the default shelving filters to high and low pass you have to reset the bandwidth knobs for Band 1 and 7.
@@flstudiotricks6903 thanks so much sir, hope you do more videos soon, im learning alot. they are well appreciated
@@melorams22 You´re welcome!
Lol. Until now, I thought your voice is from a Text to Speech software xD
I think you were not alone! :-)
what actually LUFS stands for - is it the same with dB ?
L oudness U nits F ull S cale...
db is just a scale for measuring sound pressure in general...
But we have different "points" where and what to measure...
I.e. we have peak level which just tells you how "loud" the loudest peaks of the material is...
But peak level doesn´t tell you how loud our hearing feels it to be...
Our hearing reacts more to the "average" level than to certain peaks...
Before, RMS level was there to measure the actual "Loudness" but RMS measurement has certain flaws when it comes to more bass heavy material...
Because of that, Loudness Untis were developed to bring a more accurate measurment on the table...
@@flstudiotricks6903 thank you! 🔥 Have you a video of performance mode? Somehow I cannot understand multiple tgings corelated with PM and most of the videos are messy explained on the yt - seems like you are the chosen one to clearly explain me this 🔥 much peace!
@@rvsk.y9542 No, not my cup of tea tbh...
lol i always thought that you were a roboter voice
You are not alone with this assumption :-)
@@flstudiotricks6903 anyways, thank you for the long and well explained video!
Hope that everything is OK with u, there wasn't been an upload for a while.
So I just came to say hello 😊👋
Yes I am fine, thank you...
Sadly I cannot tell really what will happen with this channel...
Time will tell!
@@flstudiotricks6903 I understand... I'm really keeping fingers crossed to see a video or two your when FL21 drops and even some original songs :)
@@flstudiotricks6903 Oh no! 🤔 … maybe… 🤔 … ….just uninstall Ableton and come back. 😉 I did - it was fine, trust me. 😂 (Thanks again for the perfect guides here. 👑)
@@LUFS For me it wouldn´t be Ableton but Bitwig... 🙂
I always keep an eye on FL Studio and when the next beta drops I will revisit it again... maybe... 🙂
@@flstudiotricks6903 Oh, I see (and understand). 😃 You should put your time in your favorite tool, that’s for sure.
If there is a Bitwig channel in the future let us know. ;-)
I use two DAWs, one is (way) more productive and manageable in larger projects and the other is… FL Studio. ;-) I don‘t know… - it’s simply more fun and free.
… yes… it‘s „fun“ - but not very productive to get lost in a patcher experiment instead of composing. And without noticing it‘s bed time - three chords done. 😂 But I enjoy my FL Studio time the most of all DAWs - and (even if slowly and sometimes I dont‘t understand the priority/order) the right features appear in FL.
In my next holidays i‘ll check out Bitwig for a while. I love exploring DAW und plugins… I just need more time to spare. This industry simply exploded in terms of tools in the last 10 years. It‘s insane.
All the best to you!
your voice sounds generated by ai haha
I am sorry... I can only use what I got :-)
