Remember that presets are just suggestions, not exact solutions for your problem. Dropping presets without questioning any of the settings, or experimenting with variations is a real naive and limiting way to mix and learn. For example dropping a compression preset and just keeping it as is without changes is wasted potential, because your source material is going to have it's own threshold and attack/release requirements that the preset never knew about. Learn your tools.
Sure but certain sources have certain consistent trends of what they need and if the preset is catering for that particular source it's gonna be pretty spot on...every recording is unique and all but getting too anal about dialing in your compression for an ''airy female vocal'' when the ''airy female vocal'' preset is already 99% of the way there anyway is why a lot of people don't ever finish their projects...of course I agree with you that you need to learn your tools in order to realize when you don't have to tinker and the preset is just fine.
@@NOLINK74 no shit. they didn’t say “if it sounds good solo’d then it sounds good in a mix guranteed”. youre disagreeing just for the sake of disagreeing by injecting your own assumed, cherry picked context. Which is weird af btw
@@fiachnaodonnell7895 exactly this. the same mentality and reason why people will write a legitimately good song then butcher it because it didn’t adhere to some abstract notion of what a mix “should be”, placing value on methodology and how waveforms look over how the shit actually sounds lol. I’ve also noticed that people who nitpick these kinda of things, are obsessed with policing how other people produce, or overtly place value on methodology over the actual sonics tend to either not actually release music due to their own paralyzed by perfectionism, make music at all, or work with music, or they create incredibly bland, uninspired music thinking people will care about the clever way they processed a hi hat more than how engaging the actual music is.
bass sounding creamy af. thank you kenny an ty fliko! i wander : since the signal is mono and isn't being spread before the mid/side, what is the mid side doing? you can't get more mono than mono, right ?
On the plugin he’s using he set it to mono below 500Hz so everything below 500 is mono but everything above is getting pushed to the sides I’m not 100% sure tho
Yea, I think stuff like this comes from guys that are self taught. When he said "I think bass in mono sounds good" and I'm thinking.. hasn't that ALWAYS been the case?

That’s true but if it sounds good it sounds good

FLIKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOO!
No bs after hearing some of the bass on Louie a lot of other beats don’t hit the same on my speakers anymore
What speakers do you use?
Keep in mind the final mixes on louie were not mixed by kenny but by the top mixing engineers so
Renaissance has great bass too
@@trishnavmixing4779 alex tumay to be specific
I was getting anxiety while checking some mixes w Louie as a reference
Bass line sound like James Jamerson on a 1970’sP Bass with 2 year old flat wounds transcribing a line from a RH Factor/BadBadNotGood type record
Always inspiring!

Ah, the secret sauce, reducing the width of a mono signal :P

The bass in di is already mono 😂😜

thanks for this comment lol i was confused on why he did that
💎
🔥🔥🔥🔥
🐐
But if its mono there is no sides, so why put that mid side plugin?
there is no reason to, you are correct
I leaked pierre bournes sauce if you’re willing to learn
OK here's my question, how did you get your DI signal to already sound so bassy? Mine doesn't sound bassy like that
CLA Bass
Anyone have an alternative for R Bass that isn't tied to Waves?
lovend by analog obsession. it's free

no teletronix or somithin to keep the dynamic of bass?
There’s literally a compressor on it
@@somedood6621 "keep the dynamic"

kenny leveling up from fart 808s to fart bass lines and I love it. Give me all the farts
GIAH got this one!
everything seems pretty double with free plugins, the dynamic eq might be tricky.
that pro q is just soo good, worth buying if on sale
