    Two little things I need to correct: at 4:04 I meant 6k/8k hz and at 5:25 it's 0.5 - 1 of course. Hope you enjoy the video! :)

    Why do all elements still need low-cutting and sidechaining? The premaster must sound awefull right? How do you create a track like that, or am I missing something

  • @DPEMOfficial
    @DPEMOfficial 2 года назад +9

    eo bro one cuestión, In the bass part, do you know that you cut what would be up to 200hz around for the mid bass, and the sub bass takes care of the low frequencies (50-100hz) but ... the 120-190 frequencies are usually left empty? Would it be wrong to leave them empty or not? The question is also that the notes of this track make me fill those frequencies, but when I produce tracks with notes that do not reach that frequency range (120hz-190), do I leave them empty like that? or do I have the mid bass fill them in, or would that be good?

    • @djseverman
      @djseverman  2 года назад +3

      I wouldn't leave them empty. You can try filling those up by adding a higher octave sub or you use an additional midbass to fil that area up. Could be a saw wave or a bass guitar :)

  • @agissatriamandala201
    @agissatriamandala201 2 года назад +1

    I have found that when I play some elements and look at the correlation meter in SPAN, individually they stay in phase (on the right), yet when played together (for example 2 bass layers at once) it goes to the left on the correlation meter (reaches even 0.3). Why might that be? Is it something to worry about?

    Question, did you add fx before you rendered everything into stems? because the leads sound like they have reverb and fx on them. Because everything sounds like it was eq'd a little but it wasn't the final mix. So should I mix as I go, render to stems and mix again?

    How do you decide the type of sidechain in kickstart? You chose different sidechains for all the the sounds.

    • @djseverman
      @djseverman  2 года назад +1

      The lower the frequency the more sidechain you need. So for a subbass choose a curve that ducks it quite a bit and set the intensity/mix to 100%. Now the higher you go in frequency the less sidechain you need. So for chords you can apply a less dramatic curve with a little less intensity. Then for the leads even less and for the high end sounds you don't necessarily need sidechain at all. Hope this helps :)
