    Hey Joe! Having mixed bass guitars countless times, I always loving clicking on videos like these to try and get out of my own tendencies and try new methods and thought processes. I can easily admit - sometimes it is so easy to get caught up in all of the minute details that I forget that mixing is supposed to be fun and expressive! Thanks for teaching throughout the years, and always subconsciously teaching to always enjoy what you do. It's helping at least one person out here.

    Hey joe grat advise! Wise too!!!
    What i do is play real hard with pick close to the bridge to get the full and controled wave and then compress the hell out of it while the mix is playing. Bass is the last instrument. First kick snare then gtrs vocals panning then bass. I use bass as the glue.
    Youll notice in motown records that gtrs vocals and violins etc may sound good but the queen of spades is always bassline clarity.

    After 20 years of doing this job I always have the same "problem", where is the line that separates too thin and too thick when it comes to low frequencies.
    There are many great mixes out there, some of them being really thin, others really thick so there is no general rule about this as it all depends of the context, that is why I do not like using a referent song while mixing, such a misleading strategy.
    The main issue is how to choose whether to turn the volume up for the low frequency instruments (kick and bass), or to add more low frequencies with the EQ, two very different approaches.
    Still searching for a sweet spot though. 😃

    My ex bass player is THE dude in Austin Tx! He played on my first self produced cd… couldn’t get him for the 2nd cd so I played bass! He heard it and is still supporting my efforts 🌝…due to current reality I’m at it again. The bass I used on the last cd was an ancient fender acoustic. It has a super gritty sound. Not the best for everything…. So I’m borrowing a bass to track. Please wish me luck since I’m engineering, performing and praying.

    Very helpful video. I'm mixing a song and about to mix the bass track when I discovered this.
    One (tangential) question: I don't see the input gain / polarity controls at the top of any of my channels. I've tried to figure out how to make them visible and can't. I've been messing with clip gain & clip gain envelopes to boost sound levels for a track. Using input gain might be a better method if I can find it. Thanks.

    Hey Joe. I'm glad that you made the comment 13:00 about the bass sounding too loud. I'm watching this while listening thru studio headphones and the bass actually sounds good to me. I think the bass players should get to shine more too. So there's that.
    Also, for the 100th commented time,...did you or did you not say anything significant or profound between the 11:50 and 12:11 mark? LOL!

    Hi Joe, Nice video but I would be very interested in hearing what your bass player said in relation to the changes that you had made. Couple of things from my perspective, probably wrong. 1: when you bring up the 50 - 80 Hz bass you’re going to potentially clash with the bass drum, and two it would be interesting to know if he feels you’ve taken away his mid range, let me know?

      Maybe you need a Dynamic EQ so you can compress certain frequencies only when those particular frequencies cross the threshold. That way everything outside of those particular frequencies won't be compressed.

    • @joelonsdale
      @joelonsdale 3 года назад +2

      You could also try going into a tape saturation plugin on a darker sounding tape format. Play with the input level until the bass transients start to saturate and you might find it rounds off the problem spikes just enough for a standard compressor to start making a better job of the rest. I would then parallel compress it - set a first compressor to deal with the average volume of the playing (the pops will overcompress) then set the mix to 50/50, now add a second compressor to deal with the pops (the average will undercompress) and set that to mix to 50/50 too. You have to dig deep with problem audio, there is rarely a magic plugin that will solve all your problems! Lots of small steps will sound better than one processor going bananas...

  • @Navisworker
    @Navisworker 3 года назад

    Often when I record bass (And Synth Keys) one or two low notes are visibly louder. The low note is great and I am concerned that compression will shape that low note such that it loses it's timbre. How do you address that and make the other notes fatter?

    • @hendrix5757
      @hendrix5757 3 года назад +1

      try using a multiband compressor as opposed to a traditional compressor! This way, you can focus the compression on the low end and low mid freq bands independently, giving you the luxury of controlling how much low end, low mids, and/or whichever frequency band needs to be more (or less!!) present in the mix!

    • @bossconductor7267
      @bossconductor7267 3 года назад

      Sometimes bass notes resonate at certain frequencies, making them sound louder. I often notice this around 100hz. I put a dynamic EQ there to cut that frequency when it gets too loud, without affecting that harmonic on other notes.
