the volume buttons on the channel rack are pre- faders and the gainers in the mixer channel are post faders. Thats why the channel rack ones are better :)
4:10 - The volume knob in the channel rack controlls the volume of the sound BEFORE it goes through the Mixer with all the effects. Most plugins have a sweet spot around - 12dB (+/- 4dB) which will make the plugin get the "best" sound out of your sample, you can find it in the plugin's manual. Look up "Gain Staging" :))
The volume knob in the sampler, changes the effects from the mixer aswell. Let’s say you have distortion on a mixer track and you turn down the volume from the mixer, only the overall sound is getting decreased in volume. If you use the sampler knob, the distortion intensifies and ofc the volume of the sample get’s turned up and intensified aswell.
Please keep doing these videos Chuki, these are super informative and ive already learned a lot from you. Just bought your first and second drum kit and the sauce kit. All of them are fire! keep up the good shit man!
4:25 Bro I can explain why you say this: The knobs in the sampler and channel rack is for the input signal. The faders in the mixer channel are for the output signal. So if the input signal is loud or "clipping" the fader in the mixer channel will only change the output signal and the sound will continue to clip or have a little bit distortion. That's the reason why we're leveling the sound to the "best" level in the channel rack or in the sampler, if that makes sense.
It is good to level the beat first with the sampler volume knob to have good input signals, but it is very important to use the output fader in the mixer after using effects. If you use the input volume knob it will just change the volume the signal goes into the mixer and the effects. I see a lot of people doing this wrong, they are mixing from start to finish with the sampler volume know and leaving the mixer fader in the "starting" position. And because these are tips for beginners, it should be mentioned.
You want to lower from the nob on the sample because that's the input volume of the sample going into the mixer. The mixer fader helps balance the entire mix but if you have an input volume that's high and clipping, its still technically clipping even if you lower the fader on the mixer. You're just hearing a clipping sample in a lower volume if that makes sense.
Hey Chuki, this video was great, as always. But I find myself making beats that doesn't sound professional, and I think it has to do with things like reverb, compression, the master, etc. It would be absolutely fire if you could make a video on some more advanced concepts like those!
QUESTION: In terms of mixing the beat, I want to know if at any point you would add EQ (that doesn't change the sound of the track) and/or compression to the individual tracks to make them stand out in the mix, or is this only done when you are adding vocals to the beat? I know that EQ can be used in the beat to shape individual tracks get a specific sound (like low passing a pad or vocal sample to make it darker).
4:26 Hier pas je geloof ik het binnenkomende geluid mee aan en zorg je ervoor dat het zuiver "naar" de mixer gaat. Dat is waarom het anders klinkt. Ik zag dat gisteren toevallig in een andere tutorial. Thanks voor de tips 💯
I made a beat and wanted to set my autotune so used autokey and it gave me C Major then suddenly changed to F Minor and I have a feeling is the bass I added cause it gives it a dark vibe, which key should I choose, and the C Major and F Minor are at the same time duration (The reason why I said they are at the same time duration is because just in case you want me to chose the longest part of the key) Also hope you answer this question. Sorry for asking lots of questions. Really appreciate what your doing
Can you use fruity limiter instead of a soft clipper? Fl studio 20 presets a limiter on the master already...or is it better to swap it out for the soft clipper?
For hard-hitting 808s and Kicks, I know we have to add a Fruity Soft Clipper to the master track but do we also have to add a Fruity Soft Clipper on the 808 and Kick teach as well?
fire tutorial but for the absolut beginners stick around these volumes for good mixes: Snare/Clap -6db 808 and Kick -9 to -12db and with sidechaining hihats - 18db all other percussion should be in the range of -6 to -24 db thats just my go to start for each beat and it helped me starting out.
I need help Chuki. I made a beat and exported it and deiced to rap on it so I turned the beat down by 5.8 db and my 808 and kick dint hit as much, then I asked you like a month ago that should I export stems and you were like if I want to have control over it, so I used my stems to record the song and adjusted the 808 and the kick. Can I continue using stems to record or what do you think I can do to make my 808 and kick hit after turning the volume of the beat down Thanks bro, hope you have time to answer the comment even though its super long.
Yo Chuki I'm curious where do u get samples like this ( 10:56 ) from Thank u for sharing your knowledge with us I was always reducing the loudness level in the mixer chanel
chuki, im justing starting learning how to create beats from FL studio, but only in the trial version (in which i cant save my work and etc), does it worth it or not?
do you or anyone have any advices on being in key? i literally draging my loop into a website to find the key, then activating the scale helper and when i ask people for feedback i always get told my 808s or leads etc. are outta key..
If the site is looperman check again if that’s the exact key. And make sure you have 808 in key. And change your 808 not all 808s work good on melodys. Also if you have bad 808 samples no amount of mixing will help. But tbh that website might not be accurate when keying

This is the best mixing tutorial on youtube🔥

It most likely has to do with your sound packs 😍😍
hey brother what's the story behind your right hand tatoo. 32 number? what is that?
Can you make a video about automation clips pls
Thanks bro, now im going to Fl Studio try my skills :)
u a vibe man, much love!!
How loud should my beat be after its mixed and mastered? Like what db? I do plan on adding vocals to it as well

Make a separate vid for 808s pls, i always feel like my 808s are muddy or not hitting hard enough
Already did one!!

You’re welcome my g
Note: Turn up the velocity to the max for hard hitting sounds then turn the volume after (if the shoue fits of course, it could work vise versa)
Thanks for the advice bro !!

Did one already!!
For hard-hitting 808s and Kicks, I know we have to add a Fruity Soft Clipper to the master track but do we also have to add a Fruity Soft Clipper on the 808 and Kick teach as well?
You don't have to add another Fruity Soft Clipper, but if you want to let the 808 hit harder, u can. I usually add two soft clipper
@@prodby-dt9147 thank you!
Yall pay atention to this one cause he is giving the sauce
Haha aye u know it
fire tutorial but for the absolut beginners stick around these volumes for good mixes:
Snare/Clap -6db
808 and Kick -9 to -12db and with sidechaining
hihats - 18db

Yo Chuki I'm curious where do u get samples like this ( 10:56 ) from
Thank u for sharing your knowledge with us I was always reducing the loudness level in the mixer chanel
chuki, im justing starting learning how to create beats from FL studio, but only in the trial version (in which i cant save my work and etc), does it worth it or not?
Can you make one more episode covering everything you've talked about throughout the secret sauce season pls
Re watch every video 😍😍
i love how you explain things XD 10:30 much love #32
do you or anyone have any advices on being in key? i literally draging my loop into a website to find the key, then activating the scale helper and when i ask people for feedback i always get told my 808s or leads etc. are outta key..
check the key of your 808
Because sometimes the 808 is offkey
@@garsi1 ye i check it every time its always in C this cant be the problem
@@ohsauce9773 nah i check it every time in edison its always in C
If the site is looperman check again if that’s the exact key. And make sure you have 808 in key. And change your 808 not all 808s work good on melodys. Also if you have bad 808 samples no amount of mixing will help. But tbh that website might not be accurate when keying
Damnn the melody is fire 🔥
