Again great video. My method is also first checking the EQ curves with the Pro Q3 and doing this trick. But sometimes I use Izotopes Low End Focus plugin which can give me a good result too, but mostly in a readymix where you don't have the tracks. Also your last option about ducking the Bass can do the tricks indeed, for that I use Wavesfactory Trackspacer. All these thing together can make a great bass/kick balance.
Thanks again! The bass ducking will be in another video 😉. I'm not so familiar with the whole Izotope ecosystem but people keep mentioning it to me so I will probably have to check it out at some point 😬😇. And Trackspacer huh ? Are you doing more EDM type productions or will this also work fine on regular "acoustic" instruments you find?
great tutorial!... was not so aware of the fact that you can "compensate" the eliminated low ends by the exisitng harmonics of the bass... I sometimes found out that by cutting the low end I "missed" something, but probably you have to get accustomed to the sound. I use also Fabfilter but more Izotope (Neutron and Ozone) or Cubase for this 'maskin'
Thanks! Yes it all depends on the situation of course and being able to hear what you are doing. I'm unaware of what Izotope offers for all of this. Might have to look into to that.
great tutorial...!... was not so much aware of the fact that you can compensate the eliminated low frequencies by the other exisitng harmonics.... sometimes I found out that when cutting the low frequencies as you show here you "miss" something in the recording but probably you have to get accustomed to that. I use also fabfilter but more Izotope (neutron and ozone) and cubase for maskin'.
Thank you. This is a great video for me to learn from.I was thinking of making the kick drum more pokey and clicky to give the bass guitar more of the low end in a rock track.I get confused.
Yes you have to make a choice who takes the low end if you just use EQ to separate them. However you can also use compression. That’s in one of my follow up videos.
It would have been nice to have included the multi-tracks that were featured in your webcast. Regardless, I thank you for sharing your time with us. Much appreciated.
Yes I understand what you mean. I usually do that when there is really something to compare and the end result on the audio is what it is all about. This video was more about the general idea of how to do this kind of processing and what it can bring. It was not so much about getting the perfect end result. But … point taken.
@@LanewoodStudios I am not complaining by any means. I appreciate all that you provide when appropriate. I fully understand. Have a safe and wonderful weekend.
Great video as usual, my concern is now when played in big speakers like the one you find in clubs, is your low end not going to be weak or fall apart altogether because of that huge cut on the bass low?
be careful to identify sounds that you only "SEE", FFT (size) is very limited in the lower (under 80 Hz) Area and so the LINE you see shows something which doesnt really exist. You need very high "Resolution" to view accurate in the Frequencies below 100 Hz. 99,9% of the people "watching" at visualized Frequencies and their Amplitude (without phase and time) have no clue abt this issue.
Yes you are right of course. Make sure you can hear what you are doing when making adjustments. My next video (up next week) actually demonstrates the problems you are talking about as well.
What do you use to separate kick and bass ? Or do you not do anything special in the low range ?
Excellent video. Thank you!
Thanks for commenting 😄
Thanks, man! You're awesome!
You’re welcome!
Great video :) i user the standard Cubase plugins to separate kick and bass
Sure, they can do just fine as well! 👍

I only mix pop/rock type of music.
Ok, just had a look at that plugin. Seems interesting, so thanks for the tip 👍.

No offence taken Peter. Just tried to explain my thinking about this. You have a great weekend too!

For club music it's sometimes the other way around as well, or the 808 bass takes care of the real low-end.
