nothing huge, you get a very superficial view. He cant teach or show but he can do what he does while getting recorded. his explanation of Compression use was basicaly it sounds good, then goes on saying useless stuff like I use it, some dont use it, I use it everywhere, it adds compression distortion and loudness. lol

A few year back was going to assist a session for Tillie when he came to town... but Lil Yatchy never made it to the studio 🙃 so just hung out with Tillie while he was working on a Migos mix
Man for years i was wondering how they made 808's hit so hard and clean...... have waves, Plugin alliance, IKMULTIMIDIA, UAD..... and still couldn't achieve my 808 sounding at least decent...... This Video is a game changer
NOTES: - 808: Boost 20/30Hz and 5/10kHz with Pultec. Paralel processing with RBass + Distortion or Paralel compression - Kick: EQ to boost desired frequencies (30Hz and 10kHz). Paralel comp. And Paralel transient processor + resonator. - Snare/Clap: EQ and soft paralel compression (3:1, fast attack, slow release, -3dB GR) - Hi Hats: Compress a bit
"really you just have to let the record speak to you"....that's exactly what I do when I'm producing...sometimes I might be in the middle of making a hot beat and I'll just grab my lunch, go sit on the floor and let it loop on repeat until the music tells me exactly what is the next element it needs
19:21 mans "EQ'd" the snare without the EQ being enabled. On the UAD SSL, you have to click the "EQ IN" Button just below the LF band in order for the plugin to be active. He probably knew this and just forgot in the moment😂. Great content 🔥
Two things that caught me was the API channel strip on the piano and most of all the Focusrite channel strip on the bell. It added a real nice dimension to that bell. Nicely done bruh.
What is also key is getting great sounds to start with. Mixes can go quickly when you don't have to beef up crappy samples and flimsy drums. So make sure you sound is a good as you can get it before sending to mixers. 9 times out of 10 they will substitute you're lacking sounds with their own punchy samples.
@@branwithoutclaws am mixer, can confirm what they said. If the snare sounds like shit best believe i'm going to replace it/layer it with a stronger one that keeps the same vibe. this is one example but i've completely redid 808's when they're out of key or a weak sample, if it's holding back the song i'll fix it, if it's atypical or not a standard sound I'll keep it as long as it doesn't compromise the vibe. Of course I'm only going to do this with the artist's approval, but 9.9/10 they trust my choices and like the end result better.
I learned a lot from him in this video, I would also like to point out how our ears can trick us because when he first pulled up the SSL EQ, the EQ was not engaged. He made changes to the snare I believe but nothing was actually happening. He never turned it on. Let that be a lesson that our eyes can make our ears think we are hearing something that we are actually not. No shade to him because I've done it before as well lol
I think the big difference in his mixes vs amateurs is he can hear the tonal changes every plug-in gives each sound and tweak it to his preference. Numerous small changes that make a big difference overall is the goal here. He barely touches a lot of plugins but they remain in the mix to change the tone. He either has perfect listening skills or his studio is perfectly calibrated or a combination of both.
The way he mixed that 808 is very interesting. Boosting 20hz is something I’ve never heard before but it sounds good and makes sense, it’s about as low as we could ever hear and is pure sub frequency content, also boosting the highs like 8-10k is something I do personally but don’t ever see or hear people do on the 808
Im thinking thats on the right track. I boost the high on bass a lot because the air lives up there, which also makes sense on why he would use a distortion send as his eq would already be boosting the frequency a bit.
Nice one! Just one thing: the tip on H-Delay at 49:40 , there's not much info on it but IMO the 4 delay modes are not just added noise or hum, but also changing the delay sound. Mode 2 has to much hiss for me, and 3 distorts low level tails, but anyway all of them are diffent delay sounds to explore. Cheersss
This is literally the best rap mixing video I’ve seen on all RUclips so far! Thanks for that. That will be so amazing if you can get him to do another rap mixing video on your channel! Cheers!
multiple parallel compression. Man the more and more I learn the more i realize using more than one compressor to split up the work just sounds better.
The thing I learned about mixing is it’s truly about finding your sound once your comfortable rapping I suggest going to a professional studio even if it’s a bit pricey I mix a lot of my own tracks so I would hope to get my template

You can make the same video but with the engineer jason goldenberg, the "nba youngboy "engineer.
gotta appreciate this kind of video cuz this is for the community fr

Hahaja fr bro😮💨🤣🤣
@@David-hs1bu YES ?
He barely does anything. And he says twerking instead of tweaking
Lot of his explanations didnt make sense forreal but still some good info in there especially for beginners
Boosts 20hz on 808
Mastering engineers: 🥵
44:05 for those here for his VOCAL tips since he has worked with finding the migos sound and alot of the people at quality control ;)
As Metro Boomin’ himself might say, not all heroes wear capes 🦸🏿♂️

❤
literally the best mixing content I've learned from being a rap engineer , I've came back to this video over 5 times and learn new things
Cannot believe this level of quality in a video is being uploaded for free. Amazing video thank you so much for uploading this
man its an amazing privilege to see a full mixing session with this much precision on everything. thank you 🙏
as I like this type of videos I would love to see more engineers here
ruclips.net/video/gLBRkNIB864/видео.html
Gotta respect him for putting the time to make this video. Learning from an engineer of this level really makes you learn
We need more content like this , really helping out the industry, my mixes went from a 5 /10 to a 10-10
cap.... im sure u can get better..ijs
The end advice says everything : keep your mixing true to what it must feel. If it must be raw, not so polished dead-mono sound, go for it.

Sound selection
@@onewayrhodes6663 on god its just sound selection
@@tobirachi8952 no, it's not just sound selection alone.
@@225maine yes it is lmaooooo get a good 808 instead of trying to fix a bad one
NOTES:
- 808: Boost 20/30Hz and 5/10kHz with Pultec. Paralel processing with RBass + Distortion or Paralel compression
- Kick: EQ to boost desired frequencies (30Hz and 10kHz). Paralel comp. And Paralel transient processor + resonator.
- Snare/Clap: EQ and soft paralel compression (3:1, fast attack, slow release, -3dB GR)
- Hi Hats: Compress a bit
He didnt put any compression on 808!
yeah basically that's it for the drums and a good saturator for the instrument bus, like heat or UAD Ampex atr 102 to give that analog tape feel
YO G WHAT BOUT THE VOCAL NOTES????
Salute to this man for giving props to FL Studio and the many Musicians who have made it a musical household name 😁✌🏽
What a legend, glad he’s taking a minute to help us all out. Hope y’all can do more of these trap mix breakdowns💯
war eagle!

Tillie my Guy!!! A talented brother and a good friend of mine one of the best in my opinion!!!💪🏾💪🏾✊🏾✊🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Great stuff bro!!!
Thank you for the finishing touches I needed.
I have never witnessed a MixCon and not came away better then when I went in. Thanks Justin!
best one on RUclips.... can we please get more of this type of content please!!! 10/10
This was really great, Big thanks Justin.
uwc man

Nope he didn't forget 🤣🤣
I do know what you mean.... You know what I mean? Brilliant video. Thanks
this was dope need more hip hop mixing videos
True.. although would be nice to get some actual hiphop, instead of the autotuned mumble pop shit
@@UncleBenjs get with the times, hes not even mumbling
@@UncleBenjs your not listening then
Love this! Literally connects everything, highly recommended for anyone who overthinks mixing
ruclips.net/video/gLBRkNIB864/видео.html
For you guys to give this out for free is crazy! Thank you so much man
Never take this down. Beauty
bro I watch this like once a month fr, we need more content Tillie!
Great vid guys. Always cool to see someone else's process.
he's such a cool guy. i'm enjoying watching this so much!
Two things that caught me was the API channel strip on the piano and most of all the Focusrite channel strip on the bell. It added a real nice dimension to that bell. Nicely done bruh.
glad this is out i was reading his soundonsound article with the song sum2prove i was a little confused on how he got the 808s to sound so good lmao.

spent so much time on a perfect 808 eq damn $$$$$$ but i'm not complaining i'm admiring and grateful for the lessons
We need another tille episode 🙌
FL GANG!! my guy its cool shit dope!!!
Amazing I did it You made my day Thank you!!
Yo the way you describe everything is so helpful. Thank you so much for this.
really covering all of the bases with the mixcon series
Mans got every plug-in in existence 😂
THIS WAS SO EDUCATIONAL IM APPLYING EVERYTHING TO MY MIXTAPE IM WORKING ON 💯
Loving all the gems. Much love to everyone involved who worked to be able to put this together
What I learned:
1. what plugins he uses
2. how he uses them
3. how I can use them or similar plugins
Thank you so much for this one……your shaping a new generation of engineers and i really do appreciate that if I say so myself thank you 🐐🐐🐐’s

Right now!!

6:34 As a bass head, i appreciate that. The sub box in my car is tuned to 34hz so i love the lows.
(2 12" crossfire 12s on a 6,300 watt rms amplifier)
Can’t wait to get home and try the nls bus on my vocal it sounding a amazing on my air pod
This dude the goat ! Great content and knowledge right here
man do I feel like an amateur, but I've learned a LOT!!! Thanks for doing this to help out us rookies lol

Dope as hell
Thank you so much for this! What a talented and humble guy.
This guy is half guy half "kinda".
Great tutorial btw, appreciate you bro 🙏
This Was Very Educational and I Appreciate the Content That You Bring on Your Channel.
Amazing tutorial... I need to figure out the difference between using a bus vs sends and what circumstances favor each one.
Always Learning, Always A Student 🙌🙏
Great tutorial from a great teacher! Give us more!
Mixer gang gang 😩😎
Appreciate this more than y'all know
Just here learning 2021
multiple parallel compression. Man the more and more I learn the more i realize using more than one compressor to split up the work just sounds better.
Most def eases the workload when using multiple Comps'
Compression and parallel compression is super important for getting a mix to translate well on the phone and the car
Perfect !!!
From what I’ve seen in this video the main focus is on kicks and 808s
Like using sends to perfectly mix them and stuff
This is what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing!
The thing I learned about mixing is it’s truly about finding your sound once your comfortable rapping I suggest going to a professional studio even if it’s a bit pricey I mix a lot of my own tracks so I would hope to get my template
Learned a lot fam thanx 👻
Yea this amazing
Best mix tutorial on YT thx 🙏
We need another one from bro
Thanks Justin for this amazing master class!!!
the mind is a crazy thing my boy didn't even realized the EQ was off when he was EQ'in the CLAPS LOL nothing was happening
Thank you in advance!
Multiple gems in this video!!!!
19:40 don't forget to activate the SSL EQ when you work on the frequencies of the clap bro, placebo effect ahah
Awesome
Tillie keeping it 100 with this one! Thanks for sharing. =)
Dope video
HR FULL OF GOLD!
Man knows his cooking utensils and how to use them.
Yer man that drum buss. Glueing the drums. I need to keep working on that.
The pushing into clipping for tone and vibe makes sense.
Hi hat buss and all that.
So this is all additive not subtractive.
they lied the trick is additive and balance
very nice tutorial man..appreceated
if you want make a mixing vocal tutorial (maybe rap or anything )
