thanks for the comment, i try to make the track as good as i can, but i had to sacrifice mixing part in this one :)

sexy melodic house 😱

@@Alkatribe thanks for the comment. As a solution You can use Ableton instead of your main daw, you can spend 1-2 hours to learn the interface but i think its worth it. I was thinking about making templates for both FL and ableton but when i have a lot more subscribers, maybe in the future. If you have another daw i would recommend to learn fl and/ableton as these are the most popular ones, knowing several daws is a useful skill

I kind of agree but i have to say- today's loudness standarts for EDM are high and sacrificing dynamics for loudness is common here. for example If you are into acoustic music it's clear that this is going to be disturbing for you. The final limiter thershold value i showed in the video is at a level where subtle cutting of the transients occurs rarely more than -1.5 dB . The word pushing is not really fitting here. Comparing to most of EDM music. Try listening to Trance, Bigroom, Mainstream progressive. That's where they really push the loudness.

@@Illarion_studio regardless of genre, the louder you can get your mix BEFORE hitting the limiter the better. Even in heavy techno where you want to hit -6 LUFS

@@mannmusica You are right. compression is helping to achieve that. If you are talking about the example in the video i wasn't trying to achieve max loudness as it's not necessary and is a whole another topic

@@Illarion_studio also I do agree that the basic premise that kicks can ruin the loudness of your track is very true

True. But it might take a lot of time. Even if you find the kick with perfect waveform it might not work in the track. I'm afraid producers nowadays just can't afford not to EQ low freqs Another very interesting thing: EQ's are not messing phases much when cutting instead of boosting. I've watched many videos, and i've seen even professionals applying EQ to the lows of their kick and bass, i guess no one really cares so much about it

@@Illarion_studio both boosting and cutting shift phases, it is just in the mechanics of equalizers: the shift happens on the edges and in the center frequency, regardless of whether it's a boost or cut. The higher up you want to climb to the main stages, the more detail you'll pay attention to. There's 1 more solution btw: using ProQ3 and there's linear mode in it, that compensates for phase shifts but it has a nother quirk to it:pre-ringing.

hey thanks for the comment. I kind of agree but i checked on my laptop speakers and it translates very well, everything is clearly hearable. I think achieving "acceptable" mix quality is enough for nowadays music standarts. I don't think average listeners are going to recognize that top 20% of the difference that good acoustics give you. Besides that even if you have good acoustics you have to be experienced enough to use it at 100% of what it can give you

@@Illarion_studio it translates onlaptop speakers and you are great, always watching your videos. mix quality = loudness, interessting sounddesign this are things you need at least a semi pro studio for. Your stuff is great, but you are probably on headphones, thats why you keep it simple and fuctional, nothing bad about this: But electronic music lives from sounddesign, tight sounds which translate on all systems which people use today. Everything needs to be perfect, you think of leonardo di caprio in a wheelchair, everybody will say, yeah cute guy but he would not be the leonardo di caprio evertbody celbrates.....bigup yourself! dont say its enough if it is not

@@JDVVV378 thank you very much for the comment. I have main 3 groups for Drums,Music,Fx. Kick is inside drum group and sometimes i have it layered thats why i have kick group. I was making group for kick and bass together earlier. Now i have kick in drums group and bass in music group. This is because i compress drum gr with glue compressor 99% of the time.and i compress low end on master bass for volume control purposes, because its already punchy and i dont need to compress lows. Good sound selection for kick and bass is what you need, sometimes you wouldn't even need to use compression. Its a matter of taste and i would say that you can achieve really good kick and bass groove together in many ways. If you like doing it your way by creating kick&bass group its 100% okay. I also think it depends on genre for exapmple its probably better to compress kick and bass together if youre making hardstyle where these elements are essential. My Send channels have reverb and delays. You can use send channels not only for spacial effects but for chorus,grain +many other effects even for a double track for vocals. On main elements i would prefer send channels because if you use reverb for example on a lead sound it would take away some of the volume and clarity from the main signal. Using reverb/delay directly on channels on secondary stuff like pads and effects is fine but you have know what you are doing. Hope that helps if you have any questions im happy to answer

@@Illarion_studio Thanks for the explanation and some great tips !

thanks for the comment. around 123 bpm is a good tempo for melodic house. Honestly i dont often hear melodic house lower than 120 bpm if you know some good songs please share

@@ADITYA-dc4eu thanks for the comment. It's funny i don't use proL at all last years of my production journeys. Its hard to work on little details like grit since its not my genre and its easy to over do

@@Illarion_studio Appreciate this stuff bro.

@@brate8981 and its on master bus

😰

i cant believe this but you might be right

Ableton

Its ableton. The sounds are not stock

@@Illarion_studio ah ok, thank you for letting me know, I've never seen it before, great sounds mate!

you are correct. labels like This never happened, Colorize and so on, release melodic house that anjunadeep could potentially release too. today's melodic house sound is pretty much defined. If i would listen to a random release on the labels i listed above i probably wouldn't guess 100% of the time

thanks for the comment. If enough people ask for it in the future i will provide the project but without the music file. i think i captured enough details in the video going through every section and i didnt think anyone would ask for a project file

Nice explanation do you make your track elements as the ref track or arrange you elements to the idea and structure of the ref track ?

@@JDVVV378 its just midi clips, not the remade sounds from the track. You should be able to hear this stuff in the mix, its a really useful skill to develop as a music produser. The topic is the arrangement. Remaking the whole track and covering all the other aspects of production would make the video longer. Maybe in the future i will do something like that.

Yes the algorithm sometimes works weird. But you can watch the video now if you want. Hope it provides value for you

@@Illarion_studio yes,and I love to watch the content here.
