      @@SkyeLabMusicGroup 💎 ive watched dozens if not 100’s of mixing vids in utube. This might b top 5 because you display how creative one can be with limitless possibilities once u develop your 👂🏾 and familiarize with the daw. One suggestion for a vid i have for you. Is your favorite mixes you engineered. And what you did to it that made it memorable. Or you can create a playlist of all the songs you have commercially worked on so ppl can appreciate your body of work. Might b working with you soon wishful thinking. I noticed nicki minaj on a track. Are you the one behind her dope stutter effect. 💥 im gonna watch this one over n over and try all these simple but savage tips. Thanks so much. Internet hug 🫂

    I am completely floored with your incredibly diverse range of expertise. I get that you are a professional producer, but I guess I haven't watched or sought out enough production videos with this level of quality and content. Your videos, the content, your delivery, the examples, the methodologies, the tips and tricks, the common sense, all of it....dude...you are the f'ing man! Alright, enough kissing your ass! Haha. Excellent work.....sincere respect!

    I’ve discovered your channel 15 minutes ago and I have to say it’s one of the best I’ve seen for a long time. No blabla, just quick, easy and really usefull techniques, your voice and your humour are very appreciated and these short transitions of landscapes and water between points help refocus for the next one. I see tons and tons of tips and tricks over UA-cam and that’s the first time I really learn multiple ones in one single video : the flanger one, the delay one… Thanks so much 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

    • @SkyeLabMusicGroup

    Thought i was a legendary genius for. filtering out 2 track beats to create stems... brought me back to earth real quick... i pretty much do everything here already. Although the double time and half time stuff i will be incorporatimg more i usually do tjat with this tape.delay plugin. It creates a cool double time chop. Some great plugins for hip.hop.beat.proccesing . Waves Linear band eq roll low range off to 33 - 39 . Scoop out some mid range to make space for vocal. Waves center is great for keeping 2 atrack in control a lot of times hip hop 2 tracks have limiters on them and the bass gets wonky and all over the place . Waves center will help you keep bass mono and instruments on the side. Last a vinyl or tape plugin on the beat. It does WONDERSSS TRUST ME. just mix it in to taste. Adding that noise or crackle is what you want it also pumps up and rounds the lows

      It's frequency based compression. But its using the sidechain to determine the frequency. Kind of involved, but can be useful in broadcast as well, like ducking, so the vocal pops through a bit more.
