You were the first person I've ever seen explain / show leveling the way you do with the channel rack and that was something i had never really known or used until now. I saw it in one of your more recent videos but its cool to hear you say it back when you did this!
it does and it isss. im an edm producer but this still helps so much especially more than a lot of other people doing tutorials like this so this is dope
That tip of cutting out 30-40 Hz of the kick just took mine to the next level, and I already learn how to make my snares hit harder from you, so my drums are cracking now!
Man,i ve just found you on internet and i told to my self to try watch your vids. I ve been watching your vids for almost an hour and i learned so much😁 Thank you so much i realy apreciate you! I want also to start posting on youtube ,sell beats and get known and guys like you just inspire me and push me to acomplish my dreams. Already pressed that bell button🔥
I'm kinda glad you took a while too for figuring out how important sound selection is, i questioned my entire existence when i could not figure out why my tracks sound so muddy for 3 moths. xD
Once again another video i sorely needed to add to my collection of information, ive had too many issues with lining them up accordingly! Thank you again man! your teaching methods are smooth and easy man!
I normally don't leave comments, but this video was extremely insightful. I appreciate the breadth of knowledge you dropped here. You should definitely get paid for this, lol. Much appreciated.
I like this video so much dude Im not lying it helps me Im just a begginer in music producing and mixxing I swear to god I reccomend you for this video hahahah Thank You So Much if other's dont believe you let them go by their own lol because I see this very helpful :) wish you be a successful producer bro "Do Good Always"
it saved me in one of my first few beats i was doing so i kinda try to make sure i do it. I have noticed now that more beats i do that it really depends on the kick /808 combo and what your trying to do with it. thanks and i love your work! subscribe to my channel if u get the time!
Nice. Another way to get good low end balance is get the kick hitting -3 on a vu meter then bring up the bass so when they hit together it hits 0 on the vu meter works most of the time.
Instead of using your channel rack volume pots download Gain12 and put it on your first track inputs to control gain/reduction. And btw, Loving the channel bro. Been producing over 10 years and I still find myself learning new things very frequently. Keep it up.
What the fuck, why are there not more videos like this. This guy is the only one who explains shit like this. Other just show quick examples and that's it. 10/10 would watch again
Yo this is a good ass tutorial I’m halfway through n you already showed me so much I needed to know 😂 you actually giving quality information 💪🏽 ima check out ya other videos dawg 💯🙏🏽
I love text book philosophies mixed with experience and creative flavor. Great vid! ps: my dumb ass was using stereo imaging and doing the mono there instead the mixer. lls Also reversing kick polarity is a big key less yours already is.
Jesse Fishman thank you man! Lmao I used to do the same, I literally sat there for 5 minutes in disappointment and anger when I found out you can do it with that little knob lmao! Yes sir! I always flip polarity and see which gives more bass.
I understand mixing in mono then putting it back to stereo but what I want to understand you say put kick and 808 to mono so should the kick and bass channel stay in mono at all time even when you turn back the mix to stereo
Daniel Jacks what’s good! So honestly best bet would be to do some google searching , it’s not something that can be explained in a paragraph. Sound and electricity play a role in it together. It’s very interesting!
At 5:00, You adjusted the volume of the kick on the channel and not the Mixer. What's the difference between changing the volume on the pattern as opposed to the mixer where you had kick?
HolaHola! I have the most annoying problem, when i record a vocal and want to listen back, i have to manualy move the audio file back, its like it wont snap to grid or something! i dont know.. been in contact with fl studio support, ive reaced out to many youtubers, and no one knows... its a brand new expensive computer, so its not that... can you please help me!!
Youre getting my subscribe bro! One of the most usefull tutorials i found. But next time make your video not that big because few times it wasn't clear what you were doing because video was covering fl
Question: I have a camelcrusher on my 808 channel because I wanted to add distortion, but whenever I add it, it also distorts the kick. I don't necessarily want the kick to be as distorted as the 808. How do I get around this?
awesome! i just switched from back from wack @$$ ableton and learned that this leveling your talkin about here is what they also call "gain staging". you do this way before any effect tweekin. was using a vu meter to get the kick and 808 to sit well and the way you taught seems to work well too. but do you also use a vu meter to gain stage each of your tracks? dope teacher! super easy to understand. thanks for all you do. truly a game changer technique 🙏🏽
Doc Kaos815 Beats what's good! Yes sir , sidechaining is always something you can do ! I personally stopped sidechaining just because I didn't find myself in situations where it was necessary anymore. BUT if I'm having an issue Eqing the kick and 808, I will try some sidechaining. Just choose good samples like I mentioned and do whatever sounds good to you man 🙏
Very helpful tutorial, but your kick and 808 sounded better before you started mixing than mine after mixing. You explained you had to find good kick and 808 samples, but I can never find them. What drum kit(s) do you recommend I buy to find these good kick/808 samples?
CorescopePlays yes, they don't have much stereo information in their sounds, so it's better to leave it in mono to give more room in the stereo for your other drums and melodies.
I nearly closed the vid after that dab in the beginning, but I’m glad I stayed. Good info!
BassickOfficial I apologize... I cringe myself watching this video
lol admitting it is the first step to recovery
it was so bad... but I laughed
BassickOfficial 😂

JHilladay Beats lmao! I feel like I talk more with my hands than words bruh.. 😂
I understand mixing in mono then putting it back to stereo but what I want to understand you say put kick and 808 to mono so should the kick and bass channel stay in mono at all time even when you turn back the mix to stereo
thanks man!
I want to know why lowpass filter creates resonance. Could you explain?
Daniel Jacks what’s good! So honestly best bet would be to do some google searching , it’s not something that can be explained in a paragraph. Sound and electricity play a role in it together. It’s very interesting!
Thanks! Glad you mentioned this.
At 5:00,
You adjusted the volume of the kick on the channel and not the Mixer. What's the difference between changing the volume on the pattern as opposed to the mixer where you had kick?
MghUnit407 it’s pre fader, so it will adjust the volume before it hits the plugin chain, so you don’t clip in the plugins
Great video 👍
thank you g!
Good explaining tnx
You make that levelling, but the whole song is gonna sound not loud enough. Should I just rely on limiter and turn everything up during the mastering?
yes!
Thank You Helped A lot :)
Kata you’re welcome bro!
HolaHola!
I have the most annoying problem, when i record a vocal and want to listen back, i have to manualy move the audio file back, its like it wont snap to grid or something! i dont know.. been in contact with fl studio support, ive reaced out to many youtubers, and no one knows...
its a brand new expensive computer, so its not that...
can you please help me!!
How can I know that the kic and the 808 gonna fit together ?
Thanks 4 the tuto
just play them together, no FX and see how they compliment each other
Can you do a video side chainning the 808 and the kick? Would be so appreciated
I have a few of them!
Good shit bro, support from AR
magic thank you my G!
Thx man pretty cool tips here keep it up that leveling info was valuable. Do you eq ur 808's?
Blackheep Beats thank you! Yes but (only if the kick is fighting) if they play well, I just level
Straight up
That dab at the intro was fuckin hilarious.
wish I could take it back... haha
Nice!
thanks!
I wish I found your channel 4 years ago bro gyadamn I wasted so much time learning all this shit.
Youre getting my subscribe bro! One of the most usefull tutorials i found. But next time make your video not that big because few times it wasn't clear what you were doing because video was covering fl
Waffle Joe thanks for watching! Glad I could help
Do you think a distortion plug-in should always be used on 808s?
Is this mixing what you do before side chaining the kick and 808? Or does sidechaining give you the same solution??
it is a part of mixing, used to duck a sound when another sound plays
@@LifeStyleDidIt nice! I been fixing some of my projects ever since i watched this video and its helped alot. Thank you
Question: I have a camelcrusher on my 808 channel because I wanted to add distortion, but whenever I add it, it also distorts the kick. I don't necessarily want the kick to be as distorted as the 808. How do I get around this?
Is the kick linked to the same channel?
@@LifeStyleDidIt no I have them separate, but I have the kick routed to the 808 track to sidechain the 808 everytime the kick hits.
God advice I mix 909 kicks with another a lot gives it more weight
Nath Jones thank you boss!
Those do work very good as well!
This shit saved me! My 808 just wasn't sounding good on phones but this seemed to help a lot!
DeanThomasOfficial thanks for watching!
awesome! i just switched from back from wack @$$ ableton and learned that this leveling your talkin about here is what they also call "gain staging". you do this way before any effect tweekin. was using a vu meter to get the kick and 808 to sit well and the way you taught seems to work well too. but do you also use a vu meter to gain stage each of your tracks? dope teacher! super easy to understand. thanks for all you do. truly a game changer technique 🙏🏽
awesome video
If you're mixing your drums this low what db should i be mixing my melodies around
I just go off ear
What about sidechaining the 808 and Kick that's what I do now is that OK to do?
Doc Kaos815 Beats what's good! Yes sir , sidechaining is always something you can do ! I personally stopped sidechaining just because I didn't find myself in situations where it was necessary anymore. BUT if I'm having an issue Eqing the kick and 808, I will try some sidechaining. Just choose good samples like I mentioned and do whatever sounds good to you man 🙏
LifeStyleDidIt I see...
there are no rules when creating an art work.
Just gotta be discrete, as you often hear the ducking too well if not the well
Very helpful tutorial, but your kick and 808 sounded better before you started mixing than mine after mixing. You explained you had to find good kick and 808 samples, but I can never find them. What drum kit(s) do you recommend I buy to find these good kick/808 samples?
Hey! Many people have great kits. The Martianz, Thebeatplug, Superstaro O, Curtiss King, I also have kits on my site!
@@LifeStyleDidIt Thanks LifeStyleDidit, I really appreciate your advice!
Wow very helpful
bro ik this vid is like 4 months old but how tf is it at only 360 likes serously bro u deserve more subs, keep going im sure you will blow up
Michael thank you Michael! Means a lot
Wait so when your done mixing , do you leave them on mono or take mono off (808/kick)?
hang on so you leave your 808s and kicks on mono even when your finished?
CorescopePlays yes, they don't have much stereo information in their sounds, so it's better to leave it in mono to give more room in the stereo for your other drums and melodies.
Thanks bro bro
Hahah thank you bro well taught god bless
Son-C good looks g! Thank you for watching and copping the kit!!
ty man!
Monarchie Records you’re welcome my g!
I like that man
djeddy man thank you my G!
Thanks G
SpiNaJT you’re welcome! Thank you for watching
a handy trick to prevent kick/808 from clashing: just inverse polarity of either 1 :P
In which case 8O8's sound more powerful
In playlist/channel rack
(I just want a single note to be played underneath the kick)
Harsh Music it doesn’t matter where you put it on FL
could you just use an 808? without the kick?
if you want yes!
Good video 🔭
