You guys are the best. Always clear and to the point! Love your videos.
I see it all comes to the point ; How good you understand the fundamentals. And thank you for explaining the fundamentals instead of just tricks because now we have some serious supertools to beat all of these techniques .
Here is my supertools list.
10 - Kick smack / Kick parallel processing. DBX compressor and Tilt EQ. By Jaycen Joshua. Hmm. But now we have Neutron Or Spiff? Very cool. Still.
9- Tone Shaping vocal On ProMB, by Tommy Mesarati. But now we have Stabilizer, and Clarity of Izotope. Or an older one, Gullfoss EQ even that should work but right not stabilizer is hot. and off course clarity
8- Jacquire King Different delay times on the left and right sides. Nice. Luca Pretolesi adds grove to the hats with this one echoboy. 1/16 on the left, 1/ 8 on the right. try it.
7- Manny Marroquin R- Bass on Sub Bass hmm. Now there is a plugin called Sublab, i feel this is a supertool for subs. and it already gives a static nice sub that I dont have to compress. .I love it.
6- Bob Horn Serial De-essing. Two de-essers. I kinda think there is a better de-esser trick from Adam Hawkings. This dude de-esses everything. Almost every sample just to make room in those areas for the vocals . Later on he brings out all of it with saturation on the mix buss evenly. he solves his d essing problem with de essing everything else lol crazy. But we have a supertool called Soothe. cheers to soothe.
5- Chris Lord Alge Bass Grit Layer. Multiple bass layering during the chorus or different sections. It was my favorite tip I guess I should try, I havent tried besides decapitator. But we have this super tool called Basslane that widens the bass without causing any phasing. now that s a supertool people can use for different sections too I guess.
4- Josh Goodwin Tonal EQ on different spots. I was also thinking of a stabilizer for this. And I'm patiently waiting for mic modeling to be improved. Because UAD Sphere fixes all those tonal differences during tracking. The only reason I returned the Sphere is that I will wait for the next one. This could get better. But software literally beats. No matter how you sing to the mic you sound the same because software corrects it and i havent seen enough people talking about this. I believe in mic modeling. Patiently waiting for improvements.
3- Andrew Scheps’ I mean Jake’s Vocal Sandwich Pultec LA2A Pultec. I think Dyn one does a good job on this. Compresses those highs too. And does even more. I think we have super tools to beat this one too, but the idea is the same.
2- Mid-side processing on the mix-buss. Ken Lewis. Ken Lewis does live mixing streams. And he believes getting everything right at the sources; he doesn't even EQ much. I asked him his fav vocal EQ. he said AMEK EQ200.. . By the way, he has Clariphonics in the recording chain. But boosting the sides of the stereo over 10K? In fact, we have better tools now. No? That's a bit of a phasy solution.You can boost only the transients of those sides actually. In fact, I thought people stopped boosting those side-highs. interesting still.
1- Blending reverbs. Chris Lord Alge. Izotope’s NeoVerb is actually nice for this if you want a demonstration.. Nice supertool. I probably won't use often. It needs to improve more. Pre Delays on reverbs. Nice. I guess side chains on the reverbs work so well. infact every reverb needs to have a ducking feature now. I use XVox Pro for some work and both delays and reverbs it has ducking features eventhou this plugin is for beginner market . its a new plugin and on old reverbs we still have to do predelays. interesting.
And Widening the effects on Reverbs?. I think Stage One from Leapwing is absolutely insane and spreads those safely. After that, it recovers the whole phasing. if you have a phasing signal in the first place it also recovers that.
So what can i say. Cheers to these two mentors , and cheerz to supertools. I dont buy plugins anymore. I understand the fundamentals instead and buy my supertools after. Thanks for the video.
lol i was just commenting I ended up writing an article on supertools 🤣
Agreed. Most tips mentioned aren't really "secrets" but thats RUclips lol
My thoughts while watching were pretty much the same, like there's a plugin for this and that...
Xvox and leapwing are really great 💯🙏
@@AVDRE these engineers were brilliant and they got it right with the tools available to them back then. all geniuses. much respect. ❣and respect to my two mentors Caleb, and Jake. thank you for teaching us the best of fundamentals.
Bro’s staring at the camera like it hurt him
It's his intention to make people stay
I couldtn'a have done it, I would have smashed the camera in the first 5 minutes.
Hahahhahahaaaa
And sounds like Seth Rogen
You guys are awesome ..! straight to the point ! No BS ! Respect !
The best video ive seen on the internet to help with mixing. Real tips, great demonstration, awsome to have 2 ppl discussing it and bouncing, amazingly produced with side-videos....just perfect. Wow. Well done i learnt from this!
Thanks for the tips guys! These are awesome!!
For the Tip 6 DeEsser trick, I actually use this trick all the time. I love having two processors working on different frequency ranges because when one triggers, the freedom of not having everything pulled down whenever the plugin activates is a game changer. Having two independent plugins working separately gives me so much more control and clarity in the vocal and in the end, it feels far easier to mix.
Those are actually great tips! I like the mid side thing a lot, also the dirty bass for chorusses. Thanks guys
Superb as always, picked up more really good tips. the monthly 3 day Fix the mix is so well worth watching. It is my priority in the calendar. So much learning going on! Deinitely need more videso like this!
Great video, the dual dsser and the pre fader send (paning info) is a total game changer for me. Thanks
thanks for the tips Luigi
You sucked him?
That's Paul Skenes. He went from playing baseball to playing music.
@@billb3414 that’s awesome. The hat is what reminded me of Luigi lol, mustache helped too
@@mindslikemine.8789 Lol. We both made a joke haha!
Tips heh heh
Thank you so much for the video!
Serious stuff guys. Thank you a lot!!
great video guys !! love this type of tricks !!!! thk you so much fro this, and of course we want more ;-)
You two are great !!!!
i like the last one..like the idea of side chaining the vocal to compressing the reverb.
Awesome information!
Thanks for the files, I grabbed all 4. Great stuff! Can we expect an outline of these tips? You guys are great. I appreciate your content and going the extra mile!
Love this series❤
amazing content, thank you very much!
I haven't been looked at like this in decades, thank you ❤❤
What a good channel, thanks!
Some great tips and some not great example tracks but thank you I learned a lot.
Good stuff!!
Great tips guys!
Thank you for sharing this is the best
Thanks guys for these great tips. I'll keep them in mind for the next productions. I liked more Tip 10, 5 and 1. 🙂
One of the coolest things with logic is the built-in stock Tremelo plug-in
Bring the phase to 0 and you basically have an LFO tool
What's cool is the logic tremolo allows you to shape to a great extent the LFO pattern you would want for your volume
Obviously there are more complex LFO tools for precision but if you were looking for an LFO tool that doesn't hit your CPU hard try playing with the tremolo at zero phase
Bonus tip... I had a base that had great tone but it was too smooth and its texture and I tried different distortions but all of them seem to affect the tonality of the base which was the most important element of that base and I ended up using a Tremelo and ramping it up to 64 and shaped the depth and fall off volume until I was able to get this incredibly cool texture that felt like a soft distortion bite almost like the purr of a cat
Very cool
I highly recommend trying it
✌️
Great vid. A tiny bit of sidechain on top of whichever pre delay suits the rev. 3ms, 50ms, or 150ms, seem to be sweetspots, and 3ms for things you want set back or for subtle reverb on backing/double vocals you want set back on top of having space(from having a reverb). Main seems to end up anywhere from 30ms-150ms depending on what space is best occupied by the vocal's ambience. Sometimes balancing the snare rev first and getting the voc rev to fit back to front without overlapping any making the depth field feel cloudy can be killer.
Awesome!
Great video, the only difference on the last one CLA sends the lead vocal to the delay and then sends the delay into the reverb. He talks about that being the main way he does his vocal effects. It's sounds way different then sending from the vocal to Reverb and sending from the vocal to delay both in parallel. Feeding the delay into the Reverb has a much cooler sound. CLA says send the delay into the Reverb smooths out the delay and that's his reason for doing it.. Great video guys, live your channel. Alot of great tips in this video..🙂👍👍👍
TIP3 game changer, soo cool idea!
I really enjoyed and lern more
Quality techniques.
Not all will work all the time, but overall this is a very good list of techniques that will GENERALLY work for you much of the time.
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great stuff! but I love the fact that you use Logic stock plugins for demonstration!
good job guys
This channel is the best on YT
Great tips ❤ bravo to the guy who can stare at the camera for so long 🤝
I would love to see a video on how to connect 10 different drum and bass inputs into something cohesive for a mix. For example, I have a ton of Bass / Kick / Snares / Drums from software instruments, but then I also have a external hardware Jomox airbase, 4 or 5 various external keybords that have drum tracks on them, an analog drum synth, a digital drum synth (all hardware), plus other various things that make up my drum kits. Are you compressing every drum individually, then sending kicks to a master group / bus and compressing that? then sending the whole kit somewhere and compressing that? Maybe you have some videos that already cover this type of topic or maybe its just too generalized into mixing? Do you use Drum Designer to do that type of work? Do you keep your hardware as a track input or do you bounce all your hardware to audio and then use all drum designer stuff? even if it started as hardware? etc..
Totally!
this video is just amazing haha, the vibes man
this channel is the best channel on youtube no cap, u guys are making history and changing literally the life of many people that dream with music production, thank you for ur videos thank you!!!!
CLA also puts a bit of verb on the delay.
14:30 ...would be good to make automatition on that buttons so then you can play with it during whole song by desire and need for it to change due to song parts
Fire in the de was from acoustica audio is my favorite dees especially on wide
MASTERCLASS VIDEO! REALLY FRUITFUL!
In tip 3why is the la-2a mix set at 30% rather than 100 ?
Caleb looking good!
I wonder if tip #2 is mixed into? The mid Side EQ
Expand - gate - compress 🎉 do you expand? I just remembered I used expand before compression.
First time watcher. Who are these two guys? 👍
this was very funny actually, thanks for adding your sense of humor to these tutorials, it really helps
🔥🔥🔥
Wouldn't you have achieved the effect under point 3 with a dynamic eq or multiband compressor?
Tip number 11. Have your artist record their parts better!
Dude threw a Metalcore Steven Slate brutal kick on a soft rock country type song lol
Hi bros... Aldrin here in South Africa i love ur content but please try doing it on Fl Studio
Not gonna happen 🙅
For deessing wouldn't it be better to use something granular like soothe?
I think Rdesser works great, so does t racks de ess. Why do you prefer soothe ? I don't really like the GUI
@mclovingirlgetter13 I prefer it because it is very accurate and reacts quickly and shows me exactly what it is doing and how much of it. Gui is a bit weird at first but when you get used to it you can have so much more control over things you want or don't want (and let soothe take them out). I think that beats a 2 stage deessing like suggested here. It solves the exact problem but in a more accurate way.
@@Alon21Ashkenazi I guess I might give it another try !
Yeah
Was this a Beast Recordings Production? :)
i like u guy's
please, the main mixing secret of them is pr-monopoly and network conglomeration. it makes any mixing problem non hearable non visible.

Came for the mixing tips, stayed for the miss pronunciation of famous acts 🤣 You two are great! More personality on channel please, totally caries the vibe of the coaching calls :D
the title of song??
Paul Godbout - Burn it Down Produced by Randy Beasterfield at Beast Recordings
It’s called ‘Poop’ by the band Butthole
Greetings Guys... =)
..but listening to out of tune vocals is really annoying, right ?
I’m sayin 😭
u guys should also say it doesn't work on all genres
Thanks for these tips. However, there should be 25 to life for not making the repeating loop even :-)
Thank you But still my mix sucks!
#1 tip to becoming a Grammy winning engineer? Work on Grammy winning music.
It sounds like Logic is struggling
#6 is why I can't understand the lyrics of pop songs today. Over zealous de-essing can take out all the consonants because God forbid we get a little sizzle in our ears. It may be helpful to a point but too much makes the lyrics unintelligible.
I like the pulltec/la2a/pullrec trick 😊
Sounds like a local bar band mix
why do you want my phone number for a free cheat sheet?
We do a lot of virtual events so it’s for notifications - you can leave it blank
Wow, the music you using for the demonstration sounds like it was a recorded 25 years ago
Tip #11 : find your own mixing 'secrets' and mix with your personnality
