QnA: Why your studio look like inside refrigerated vehicle?
Thank you so much for this video, I was so interested in knowing what you did to make the mix sound so much better.
Thanks for the Wider plugin suggestion. It works great.
This is exactly the video I needed to watch. Thanks for sharing your knowledge🦾
Great tips Jon!
Amazing to see your process! Thanks for sharing 😌⭐️⚡️
My favourite knob in all of FL Studio is the stereo knob in "precomputed effects" in the sampler window. ;)
that delay widening actually helps alot. Thanks !
QnA:- Can you please tell us your top 10 or 5 FREE Plugins which are essential for mixing and mastering?? Please😊✌️

video ive been lookin for thanks
Using Sample Delay to make the sound wider works great, thanks a lot for sharing!
Every day I come back from collage I see your videos, thank you very much for the consistency, the content, the hours you put in, everything!
Ps:. Can't wait to add the song to my playlist, it's amazing
QnA - Where do you store all your daily VLOG video files after you upload to RUclips? Favourite non EDM music to listen to?
Bro you have the best Music production vlogs. You are really easy to listen to man.
Fanastic video--thank you!
I personally use the izotope imager on each channel before I apply any effects and split the sound into bands, this way I have full control of the channels width in any of part of its frequency response. The issue with using a plugin such as "wider" is the plugin will make the whole sound wider and perhaps you just want to make the high mids of the sound slightly wider. Great tutorial Jon and well explained
Q&A: Do you recommend to aquire vintage gear upon new gear?, do you think that modern technology is not competitive with vintage sounds of general equipments (like racks, synths, etc)?
Very basic but powerful. I tend to use it as little as possible because of the mono compatibility. Instead of sample delay I double the track that I want to be wider and tweak the timing of the phrases together with a timbre/eq of the duplicate. Hard pan L and R each track and you'll end up with wider sound but also a lot more "intense" than just "delayed" one. It's super common in rock music but works everywhere.
6:27 also Ozone Imager (and other plugins) - which allows you to widen by frequency range
Very helpful!
Awesome trick with the delay!
QnA: which part of the frequency range is the most important to make a clear mix?
The mixed version is jaw dropping, I can hear more melodies on my $20 earphones
"Q & A" - 1 . Is it always necessary to compress vocals if the vocalist has sung it dynamicaly well and nothing is clipping.
2. Do you pitch correct vocals yourself, if yes which plugin do you use?
3.can you do a tutorial on mixing and mastering a song only using logics stock plugins?
I know you're not asking me, but still:
1. The more consistent the singer, the less compression you need, but realistically, for the vast majority of genres you need at least some light compression to achieve a 'professional' sound. Maybe, maaaayyybe you can get away without mixing classical music or jazz, but even there is usually compressed. But in EDM almost definitely.
2. There are tons of alternatives. If you want natural sounding results, Melodyne is the industry leader (And for good reason).
3. .. I obviously can't answer that :D
Do as the song needs. you're not obligated to always compress, if it's good without compression, then don't compress :) On the other hand, you want the vocal to be in front, so if it's good, you might even want a tiny bit of compression. Still, do as the song needs.
Melodyne is used a lot
There already are a few good tutorials on this, for example with ableton stock plugins.
Damn, that vocal is fire!
Q & A
How did you manage to find good vocals in your early career?
Do you think is possible to mix with headphones using any speaker simulator like CanOpener or VSX fron Steven Slate?
helpful video, thanks.
Did u make your top bass wide with sample delay or the widener plugin? And Does it matter?
Hi jon, great video! Could you perhaps do a brief video on sound design? I would be interested to see which sounds you would typically design yourself for a track (kick, hat, etc?) Thanks in advance, Liebe Grüße aus Schottland :)
QnA : What do you think about RC-20 ? and all XLN plugins ?
Q&A: I have the same MacBook as you, with a TB3 hub and harddisk, plus LaCie usb-c harddisk. The Mac crashes almost every time I plug in the one TB3 cable, to connect everything. Or it says (when I didn't touch anything) I should disconnect the external hd's properly. It's the LaCie usb-c hd causing this problem, the TB3hd is fine. Do, or did you, have the same problem and if so; what did you do to resolve it? Cheers mate!
Shoes off in the studio!
Hello jon, i like your videos . What do you think about thé Komplete kontrol keyboard? I like thé light guide because i am not à pianist. I am guitarist. Thank you for your Word!
this video made my day :) thank you! Also, when you release this song, could you make a video about how you promoted it, the preparation etc? :)
Yes sure.
How about using Chorus for widening, or midside eq'ing, e.g. cutting the bass in the mid to make the high frequency stuff go wide in the sides? I mean, slapping sample delay on everything, doesn't that make everything too wide? E.g. maybe you want to limit the width to fill out the stereo spectrum?
Would really like to see the vocal chain on this song, sounds dope
Thanks will share a full breakdown soon.
Can you try making a remix on a remix contest for example on skio music? That would be fun!
He's already done a number of remix contest, and never really liked the hosting sites. The last two(I think) he did completely independent.
It's true, this technique does work and John Christian uses the same technique when putting every instrument in its own space. One thing to be careful of though is that you don't put everything delayed to the left for example because it can make your mix sound unbalanced.
Q and A: yo man i only started producing like 6 months ago and i have trouble with knowing how loud to make my instruments in a track and i understand the basic mixing so far but when i play it all together something is always to quiet or not as clear as i want it and this might be aslo because i have a trash laptop and cant play everything altogether so i try my best to mix it by muting some instruments while listening to others. Do you have any tips on how to properly volume-adjust the elements in your track? keep up the content btw i learned so much since starting to watch you.
This is totally up to you. That’s the art of mixing deciding what should be how loud. It’s a long process that needs a ton of experience. You’ll get there just be Patient.
Now i get it.
Why mixing is important
Q&A Pls net us know how the Hofa Feedback was in detail. I did the hofa complete and their feedbacks were always very very professional and helpfull. I would really like to know what kind of improvement they suggested in detail on your already really great sounding mix.
Favourite saturation to use?
QnA - can you explain how you handle latency in combination with the outboard gear? How low can you go?
Q&A “Hi! Could you show the FINAL before and after measurements and graphs on your studio build? Please
Yes soon. Waiting for my mini dsp
Jon, congrats on your new single release, sounds great... but it's too short at 2:38!
I love the vocals of this track, ID?
I still have the Ozone5 Imager. Works for me.
Hi masterJon! What is the exact size of your studio😊😊
Q&A when are you releasing watch me burn ? I can’t wait

QnA: Whats your opinion on mixing in mono?
Q&A: is it better to do rent to own on splice or just buy it in ones completely?
I don’t use splice. Can’t tell
QA : when will you be doing your desk cable management?
Q&A: can you recommend hofa? Do you have to participate in live events or is it possible to learn everything on demand?
Hello Derek,
we thought it might be easier to respond to your question directly, we hope that is fine for you 🙂
Besides the texts, illustrations, video tutorials, studio documentations, sound examples and other learning materials which are available on demand 24/7 in our online campus, the live events are a great opportunity to ask your questions directly to our tutors or get in touch with other students.
Each week there will be new live studio workshops that deal with a specific subject of sound engineering & music production.
In any other case of questions or song feedback, you can contact our team of experienced audio engineers any time.
Feel free to have a look here: hofa-college.com
Best wishes from Karlsdorf, Germany
@@hofa_en tanks for your answer! Sounds great 🤔
Q and A for tomorrow: What is the difference between stereo width and panning? I'm trying to get my pads super wide for the melody to sit nicely in the middle in Ableton but duplicating the pads and panning them left and right seem to make no difference. Please help!
just watch the video, he explains it
QnA - can you mix well with speakers than only go to 45hz? I am worried I dont hear 30hz so there may be more booming
Thanks
Where should you normally cut kick and bass frequency ?
RULE: Cut anything below the fundamental of the kick
Remember rules are made to be broken...
OTT, Soundgoodizer, and Sausage Fattener! Plenty of delay and reverb! LOL!!
Q&A how many hours do you take to make a (final) mix ?
1-3 days
Hello Jon 👋🏻 What is your best way to wide the upper bass without sounding weird in mono? I’m working on a song and like you I’d like to wide the upper bass (not the sub) but then I switch in mono it’s sounding weird.
As I said in the video it’s always a compromise wide bass doesnt work as good in mono. Make sure it’s wide and not in. Anti Phase and use a multiband spreader for more control
@@Jonsine thank you for you answer 🙏🏻
it is called time alignment . delaying one side
Q&A: How do you cope up with laziness? I mean just sitting yourself in the studio just trying to open your DAW and then you feel uninspired...
Setting up goals every morning. Simple and achievable stuff. For exsample mixing a song and just focusing on that one goal until it’s done.
Oh, yes...more gear!
Q n A:-
Why are you underrated?
I mean you are making music From 10 year and you don't have any big release yet
Like Martin Garrix and other producer?
Q&A do you use pigments 2 by arturia and if so what are your thoughts on it?
Yes sometimes. It’s good
Q&A which Hofa training are you following
It’s linked in the description
ok i have to check then as i don t see it which training course you follow
Q&A : Have you tried this new soft synth Vital? I know you like serum so I think you'd enjoy it a lot. I find the new warp modes very refreshing and still remains very familiar to serum. Oh and best of all it's free!
Yes but I’m just way more familiar with serum

Q&A: Are you making any money on your latest songs?
Q&A: hey John, are you now a vegetarian or are you only showing us your healthier choices in Cooking with Jon Sine? :)
That's what she said
I love auto pan...
How is izotope working without issues on your m1 Mac? 😂
Hahah without lagging it's heaven
If that’s all you did, I would have to hear this through a mono speaker.
Q&A What happened to whose fault it was for that click in one of your songs?
QnA - What are your thoughts on ULTRA 2021 HAS REPORTEDLY BEEN CANCELLED news.
Corona sucks. Maybe 2025 we will have ultra again
I cant ever get the haas effect right, too much phasing. Lol.
I use the stereo tool from flux for widening, its free.
Look up "Haas Effect".
Well... ok...
When you see the cost for the courses 😱☠👻
QA: What are you waiting for....propose to your girlfriend!?!?
He needs that money for plugins and gear no time for marriage !!
Q&A - describe what sets apart a good song from a professional/release worthy song ? In 3 points !
Perfect Sample and sound selection
Good frequency balance
Good song writing and arrangement
Check dr ms from mathew lane .
Q & A: What advice would you give to 17 year old Jon?
Take more risks
Ye olde Haas effect
If I understood it right - you either make it wide or you pan it - never both?!
You can also pan a wide sound but the more u pan it the more it looses its wide sound. So I at least only pan a tiny bit to center the wide sound
Your cable management is giving me anxiety :P
Q&A: Did you ever cheat and recorded daily vlog in advance, let's say in case you have a big party today and tomorrow you'll not be able to record anything due to huge hangover? :D
NO! I even vlog when I’m totally sick. Not good vlogs but funny vlogs
