You said to use our good pair of headphones but I’m listening through my phone speaker and I can already tell there’s an insane difference on the two mixes. The difference can’t be on the low end alone cause I can hear the snare being way thinner on both mixes B. That’s insane what you’ve achieved there 🔥🔥🔥
I can't believe how much metal and heavy music productions in general have evolved the past couple years. The examples portrayed in this video are night and day and released only 4 years apart. I think this is one of the main reasons metal has been blowing up again in the charts. Excellent points and the trick was more than spot on!
I think for a long time metalheads including producers and mixing engineers have been to narrow minded to borrow stuff and mixing techniques from other genres. As some bands started doing that producers followed and the result is progress.
Was just listening to the reference mixes from the video on your soundcloud. Bro these songs are unreal I can't wait for October Ends to release them. Not to mention the production is a whole other level! Well done Nick keep it up 🤘
I'm going back and forth to compare the mixes and I can't believe the difference this makes to the sub, lows and even low mids. Do these samples only include sub frequencies or do they go higher up the spectrum too? I'm definitely buying this.
If I'm being honest I thought the title was definitely gonna be a clickbaity thing and I was surprised because I thought Nick doesn't do shit like that. But then I watched the video and that is definitely the best thing I've heard all year! Again thanks so much man 🤘
I mean you could but any sub enhancer plug-in doesn't work as well. I've tried loads of them. No sub enhancer is doing the trick as well as these samples / presets for me. To go into more detail a sub enhancer will either generate an extra sub signal, or eq or saturate that "sub" area. That way you have no control over the exact transience / length of the sound, or exact frequency curve, plus if they're not extremely high quality and have high oversampling they add extra aliasing which I hate. Overall a lot of downsides for using any type of sub enhancer. For me sub enhancers are a lazy way of adding sub.
how is it not? he literally showed back to back some of the best mixes from 2019 and the low end just isn't there. if you're not listening on good speakers or headphones I suggest you do so.
this has being done for years mate just to different limits and the era of clipping drums and sample replacement has being going on for a long time the difference is the mix is just a better mix it’s no magic tricks just a better mix bro don’t get so triggered i just don’t like people lying to there audience
and yes i have good monitors adam audio so it’s no tv my speakers pal i can tell there is a difference im not doubting that in just saying no magic trick will give you this low end u have to build it into the track from the source
@@joesmith5617 sample replacement in rock and metal has been around for decades. Layering real drums with "synthetic" has not as much. And I’m also not saying it was done last year for the first time. It just wasn’t a thing producers would do regularly. if you watch the whole video I explain it very thoroughly. If you compare pop mixes to rock/metal mixes from ten years they’re just incomparable. If you compare pop and rock/metal mixes today they’re just as good (well at least the best ones). And partially that’s because of using synthetic drums to layer the real ones.
There's people who literally pay thousands of dollars to get that kind of sound and you exposed their techniques on RUclips for free. I LOVE YOU 😍😂
I know you meant well but your comment is kinda making me regret uploading this video 😂🤣

That's amazing to know. I hadn't done the comparison in a phone speaker hahah. Thanks for watching! Glad you've enjoyed this!!

They're only pushing the sub. You're very correct, they're also pushing on other areas of the spectrum too depending on the preset used.

As always, I'm still a huge fan of your work here or with OE.
Can't wait to see next contents
With love from France
Once again you've exceeded my expectations of what good content can be on RUclips. This trick is purely mindblowing 🤕🤯 Thank you so much Nick!
You're welcome mate:)
It's almost ironic how "Low" by Wage War doesn't have enough low end:(
😂😂😂
This video made me feel like I was blind and now I can see again 😂 Dude this was SO eye opening thanks so much!!
This is what im looking for!
So basically forget Pultec and... Could you use bx_subsynth for this? Gotta test this out.
