question: why my kicks are weaker compared to songs by kendrick or drake , do they follow the -12 rule on the kick or do they limit it with -0.01 and also send it to parallel compression to fully brink it up in the mix .... or they simply mix the kick at -12 and everything else except vocals snare and bass goes way down to -18 i would guess... HELP :S i m confused
I don’t think that -12 thing is followed. Watching the engineers who work on those songs the don’t have a set rule usually. It’s just different every song. But for kicks to stand out you need room for it. If there is a 808 that is balancing thing. Then in you master how you limit and bring up all level will also affect the sound.
You made the hook sound good with one compressor
Sounds amazing! May I ask which audio interface you use?
Thanks I use the old Apollo Twin. The silver one
