    I forgot to mention if you have a stereo bass that collapses badly to mono, remaking into stereo with any of these methods still doesn't improve the mono, instead you can use a utility plugin to playback only the left or right side as the middle instead of the mono sum , that is a usually a big improvement, and then you can re-stereo it
    I also totally forgot Steve Duda (Xfer) made a free dimension expander plugin, I had already figured it out by that point and have just been in the habit of using a delay to do it. You can just go grab that instead. At least you know how it works now though!

    *Important: please bare in mind when I say things like "parallel distortion is not going to work", My advice is largely intended for beginners and these are initial guidelines that will help you (or rather keep you 'out of trouble' ) in a majority of scenarios. I break these 'rules' all the time, because I know why , where , when and how through experience. Until you gather that same experience my advice always errs on the side of caution.

    I was going through this one more time and I can't stress enough how well the content is structured and how you build up from the bass fundamentals (literally) to the stereo field. There are subtle and simple notes (e.g. chorus is practically a delay or distortion energy distribution) that add up to the huge difference in comparison to other similar content out there. Again, happy new year! I am personally looking forward to your future recordings.

    20:02 quick correction. Sample rate reduction doesn't cause any ringing!
    When you just reduce the sample rate to introduce aliasing (which is those higher, metallic tones), it doesn't have any effect on the timing or length of the tones. It simply shifts the higher frequencies (already present in the signal) around the spectrum, similarly to frequency shifters.
    Still a good tip to use the transient shaper & gate on the aliased harmonics.
    It sounds unnatural for these high frequencies to sustain so long, because in nature, high frequencies decay faster. So this technique reintroduces some natural sound.

    • @Bthelick
      @Bthelick  5 месяцев назад

      Regarding panning, I just don't tbh.
      It's a personal choice but for anything essential to the groove I don't pan for the reason that I don't want people on one side of the club getting a different thing to those on the other.
      If I have lots of backing vocal layers I usually pan those across the spectrum.
      For the rest I usually just let stereo things be stereo and that's where the track gets its width from.
      As for where stuff "belongs" , that's up to you, Do what feels good to you!
      There's no rules in art (although most might tell you to keep the kick and bass down the middle haha)

  • @ampersand64
    @ampersand64 4 месяца назад

    4:26 one thing to note about the phase shift comment...
    you're using a 24db per octave slope on your highpass!
    This creates two points of 180° phase shift!
    One of those points occurs ABOVE the cutoff, so that filter is actually rearranging the phase quite a bit!
    Not that it matters. The phase relationship of a bass sound is not as predictable as "phase shift bad".
    Phase shift is bad, but ONLY if the phase has been carefully tuned to maximize headroom previously.
    Phase shift is also bad if you saturate your bass before you use the filter.
    It's simple enough to find a good phase relationship between your bass fundamental and its overtones. Just buss the synths, just tweak the phase of the sub, while inspecting the waveform through an oscilloscope, until the peaks are minimized.
    The reason it's a good idea to separate sub-bass instruments SPECIFICALLY is because when the notes combine, they can cause really long cancellations. Its the same phenomenon as dissonant notes creating "beating", except low frequencies' beating sounds way more noticeable.

    I’ve been loving watching your videos. Your commentary makes them so valuable! Super impressive how you clearly explain what and why you’re doing things.
    To clarify your comment about distortions and phase, I’m guessing you’re only talking about distortions that apply some type of eq/filtering under the hood? Simple distortion processes like soft/hard clipping or any sort of waveshaping shouldn’t affect phase whatsoever, yes? Distortions that don’t apply colouring via filtering should be A-ok to mix in parallel, I believe.

    • @Bthelick
      @Bthelick  Год назад +2

    I like the approach... Laying out conceptual groundwork can be done just fine in the simplest of manners, then work out the technical details when people understand what the hell is even going on :D
    This is lost on many well-intentioned mentors. I've been fiddling with FL on and off, and being a wise-ass (ironically speaking anyway) I never gave much thought to the concept of actually trying to learn something. Since getting more serious I've been swimming in big ideas I'm not even ready for with all the info I've been taking in, but this video somehow made a lot of stuff click. Really took a lot from a 22 min clip and will def be checking out the rest!

    A little bit of compression can help too. But I agree that soundesign + tone shaping using effects, stereo effects are the more important part of anything music related actually

    • @Bthelick
      @Bthelick  Год назад +2

      Sure, for a live bass guitar player, but what is there to compress in edm? Most bases produced by a synth don't have any dynamics to compress at all. I haven't needed to compress a bass (or drums) for over half a decade now. I find most who think the compression is helping are usually just getting fooled by the fact it's simply been made louder by the make up gain.
