Do you have any 'secret' tips for mixing low end? Please let us know below! You all rock!
thanks for this! Just fantastic, Joe!
So good!!
That was really helpful and easy to understand. Thank you!
Steve Abini did not advocate filtering out frequencies above 20kHz (even up to 80kHz) as they contribute to the overall natural sound of music. He proved we actually hear these as they are harmonically stacked with lower frequencies.
Wow new Coldplay song ????
Thanks so much for doing this. Lots of great ideas that I tried and guess what, they work!
HI Joe, thanks so much for the amazing video. Can I ask why you roll off a bass guitar at 50Hz when the lowest fundamental frequency of a 4-string bass (with E as the lowest note) is 41Hz? I know that it's rolled off, as opposed to cut off, but as someone who is now reaching into the intermediate level as a mix engineer, this move is intriguing. Understanding WHY these types of moves work will help me to move to the next level with my mixes.
Great Lesson
Man, I just love Joe so much. His lessons never fail to make me happy and teach me something new 🙂
????❤
Such amazing value in this teaching session!
Thank you so much for these really valuable teaching moments!
My secret is mix into saturation/distortion. If it sounds good when ducked up, it sounds great with a little bit of it.
The part about getting the low end to move in sync was great. The vibe of this mix is a lot like Ordinary World by Duran Duran and I love it.
Great Video !!
Very thorough explanation, appreciated the layering of compressors and their own individual flavour they added to every step of the mix
That dad joke… chef's kiss
I don't do anything professional. I just mix my own music. I play every instrument so it's getting interesting to say the least. I didn't know I could do what I been doing with just a Guitar, Tube amp, and a PC!!!! Sometimes keys…. I use midi Drums and a real bass and sometimes a midi bass guitar. Part of it is doing what he is doing. I have a lot of different ways I like to make things work. Some Channels have 4 or 5 different plugins turned off so I can test each one to see which works best. I use a main template with everything already there then I just remove the plugins that are deactivated once I find what I like.
really good video guys… great explanation and tool choices
This is actually really good advice!
Ive heard some one say, he always filters bass at 50hz, thats just not right, every song is different…………….????????????
The joke was amazing
Super helpful! Thanks!
Hi Joe, when you say 150 'cycles' what is it you mean exactly? Do you mean you're working on the 150Hz area??
I almost always use UAD dbx 160, Waves R-Bass, and Waves L1 on bass. I like my bass to be ultra squashed, and I find the Dbx plus the L1 to put a brickwall on it accomplishes that. The R-Bass is perhaps my favorite plugin ever. It's just magical and makes the bass cut through the mix without adding any low end.
Sometimes I'll also do the "Andy Wallace bass trick" and add some chorus on an aux to widen the bass and give it a little movement. Depends on how prominent I want the bass to be in the mix.
For kick drum, I use the Scheps Omni Channel 2. There's a new resonant booster function where if you have the hi pass set to 24db per octave, it boosts the resonance just above the hi pass. There is also a saturation knob and a thump button. I then add some click using the EQ section and compress the hell out of it using the FET compressor option. My entire kick drum sound comes from that one plugin.
Excellent video, really appreciate someone making the point that every song is different.
One of the best mix lessons ever.
Instead of using Soothe2, couldn't you get a similar result with ProEQ3?
As everyone else has commented already, I really enjoy your videos and Dad jokes ????
great stuff!
This was great – thanks Joe!
That is a great way to use Soothe.
Amazing low end Video Joe and Warren
Great tutorial …big thanks !!!
Hi, we had a chat 11 months ago, about Jon Anderson, not releasing some of his new songs due to issues with record labels because of his age (his words)
You said that you knew of some labels, who would sign such an artist.
I wondered if you had heard the new album JA has done with The Band Geeks? I would highly recommend it, I was, very surprised with just how good it is. The production is quality, done by Richie Castellano (bass player with TB Geeks) and Jon Anderson.
Also, I had wondered if the Frontiers Music, record company, that the album came out on, was among the labels that you had recommended?
My caveat is I'm not currently mixing and producing music but live mixing Church services for streaming. I'm mixing within Studio One 6 pro as both mix and master steps, although on the fly, because it's live. I feed Studio One a master aux stereo mix from the main mixer.
Without an addition to the low end, it's just missing for this audio feed. High boost to an EQ isn't going to work. So, I use a bus channel to add the SSL SubGen to enhance low frequencies. SubGen goes through SSL X-Saturator and Vintage Drive, X-DynEQ, and finally UAD Distressor with Distortion 3 enabled. I'll mix that in as needed.
WE ❤️ YOU JOE
Beautifully detailed explanation. The why is so much more important than the what and this really well illustrates the reasoning behind the methodology
