    That's actually a horrible way to mix your kick and bass. All you had to do was tune your kick and bass together and side chain you lost a great deal of power from the Kick by cutting it the way you did. Another thing you could have done was cut most of the low end from the bass and add a separate sub bass and do what I said previously. You'll get that nice deep rumble effect to really shake the building up.

      @BobrLovr 5 лет назад +19

      What he's trying to drive home is that the VERY first part of your signal chain, the very first tool you should be employing in mixing is your choice of samples/instruments. He also should have tried to get people to realize, if shits clashing that means you suck at A: sound design B: selection of samples C: song writing and arrangement, but more than likely, all of the above.
      If your mentality is to side chain every thing and eq everything, then i'm sorry you're not going to get very good at production, because you're not going to get very good at song writing/arranging.

    • @fernandojaviermanqueo5890
      @fernandojaviermanqueo5890 5 лет назад +25

      If you do that you get that ducking effect from sidechaining, that is not always wanted, especially in non EDM tracks. This is just another form of mix Kick & Bass.
