- In this tutorial, I'm gonna be going over the exact mixing and leveling methods used by some of the most prolific producers in the industry. Examples of producers who use this method include Metro Boomin, Wondagurl, and Pierre Bourne. In this video, I'm going to be going over the exact levels they use, their goto mixing plugins, hows to properly eq your sounds, the best effects for your drums and melodies, and overall how to achieve a perfect mix every time.

I’ve been a producer/ beat maker For well over 30 years. Started making beats I was 13 years old. I just turned 49 in November. So I’m a dinosaur😂😂😂. These tips are spot on. It’s very important to have some basic mixing skills. It’s also good to have your beats mixed. Here’s why... most artist will use the 2 track about 90% of the time. Very few will purchase the actual trackouts (or stems) of the beat. Usually because the trackouts will usually cost more. In order to compete with the industry standards. Your beats need to be mixed well straight out the gate. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve told the artist to reach out to producer to obtain the trackouts because the Two track beat sounds terrible. Mastering a song with a beat with a terrible mix it won’t yield good results. The worst thing to hear is an artist rapping over your beat and it sounds like shit on Apple Music and all the streaming platforms. Not only that but it makes you as a beat maker sound amateur due to bad sound quality. A mediocre beat with a great mix will stand out more than a great beat with a bad mix on it. If you’re gonna compete as a beat maker it’s imperative that you learn how to mix your own beats. Plus mixing your beats can and will give it your own unique sound signature. In these modern times you’re beats aren’t really finished until you’ve mixed it. It’s a part of the beat making process nowadays. He did a great job in this tutorial.

All the mixing engineers be hating on the comment section lmaooo
Who uses FL Studio for mixing and mastering?
@@instanturbannews only for the beat
You’re officially GOATed and nobody can deny that
This is the first mixing tutorial I’ve seen that has helped me immensely thank uuuuu
This is good for basics. Something really important to know is that you will mix differently depending on your genre. If I was making some heavy riddim/Dubstep I wouldn't follow some of these
Well this is obviously for hip pop/rap
thought thats just common sense?
For sure one of the best channels on UA-cam. Points are clear and to the point. Thank you bro your videos are much appreciated
I did this on all of my last few beats and this actually works. You can hear every sound in its own little pocket without interfering with others sounds. I would bring up the frequency where the sound sounds good and then grab another sound and do the same. Then I grab both eq’s and turn down the frequency where the opposite sound sounds good at, on both sounds. This helps create space, avoids interference and allows both sounds to shine in where they sound good.
Now when I master i dont have to do much. The bass frequencies sound perfectly and tucked in the melodies don’t interfere with the bass frequencies and don’t interfere with the hi hats. When i play each sound alone they sound empty but when you play all the sounds together they sound full because each sound fills its particularly frequency.
who is this guy dropping gems like this?!
@@BrandonAdams1010 LMAOOO
U actually give some very good tips and not those obvious and basic ones. Thank you dude, good content👍🏼
Found you channel when you made that post over reddit regarding wheezy tutorial and m glad I was online that day. These tutorials have been 🔥🔥 and really helpful. Thanks and keep on the good work bro.
The amount of information packed into your videos is impressive. Please don't stop
Everyone be wanting the mixing sauce the top producers use but in reality they just throw fruity soft clipper on and toss it to an engineer lol
Lol I’ve never heard a truer statement in my life
@@MixedByMonroe lmao on me really be thinking it's some cheat code
shit so tru soft clipper and maybe a limiter 😂
@@danielcrase only soft clipper, limiter runes your mix
@@janpieterbarneveld4538 I limit some stuff on occasion though, especially if I have a background sound and I need to cut out the sound. but damn you right😂💀
Yeah, we're going to need that sound selection video.
Good stuff bro covered everything🔥
As always, thanks for the detail on this super important topic. Sound selection would be dope. Personally, I'd be interested to hear your take on automation tips, switching up drums, more on layering/sound design. Hope that sparks some ideas. Until next time dude!
EQing the sub frequencies on the 808 was something that never occurred to me and 100% makes them harder. This video has 2 much sauce 🖤
thx g, make sure to not eq them as much as i did in this video. I made a mistake by saying you can't hear past 30hz so you should cut up to there. But, it's actually 20hz.
#1 rule: learn with your ears not your eyes
can be difficult with some low end frequencies you cant hear without a subwoofer...i like to use analizers like SPAN to "see" whats going on down there =)
“We’re enginEARS, not enginEYES” - my professor
Very true but even as an audio engineer for the last 6 months I can say there’s basic starting points for all types of frequencies to get a general sound quality then brighten it or darken it for yourself/your style
True!
both is better.
I just mixed the tips from here with the tips on the Metro tutorial and it's my most pro sounding beat ever WTF you're a wizard.
can i hear a beat u did with the methods
Yoooo you’re a different breed, you finna be the best producer channel on Yt in due time
YOU KILLED THE GAME ON THIS!
This is the perfect one 🔥🔥🔥
You are on bro. Definitely coming back to this video as a reference. Cheers from New Zealand my dude, keep up the solid work!
Bro you are a saint, giving us the sauce for free
that was dope! need to start mixing in mono. One thing I find really helpful about wavecandy is that is has an RMS mode! If youre mix isnt sounding as loud as you want it to, you can mix against the rms meter and you'll know when your mixing decisions are actually making your track sound louder (as opposed to higher peak volume) - doing this really proved to me that the oxford inflator plugin is gold
Thank you so much for the drum mixing tips, I always felt like my drum mixes were a little too muddy but I just used those recommended ranges and the beat sounds so much better!
This tutorial is definitely a game changer to me 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
keep up the amazing work 🔥 💯
best channel i´ve come across so far
Awesome video bro! Definitely tuning in next time

Good video man. Good samples and good mixing = 90% of a nice track.
Your videos have made my beats 3x times better
Yo great video bro great tips.. I agree with everything you said in here. Glad to hear it from somebody else to remind myself not to mix too long. Make your moves and keep it pushing. Those DB levels are very important. Salute Stay Up
Taking notes... You have definitly a really good approach ! 👌✔
very helpful, thank you
Thank you. It really works
Finnafinnes Mixe!👀🎶🔥🤟🏾
I was doing this for fun but this actually helped! Thanks.
ive been producing since late 2018 and i now realize i havent been mixing my tracks well enough. subscribed
hat tip about the sharp Q on the kick EQ made a HUGE difference thank you!
GOATED 🔥
Genius. This will definitely help.
you are my hero :D im so happy to have found someone who actually knows what he is talking about! there are so many producers who promise something in their titles and all they do is make an okay beat and be like. See thats how you have to do it. lol i dont know if you know what i mean... i subscribed. i am gonna like every video you upload and i turned on the notifications!
I definetly agree with a lot of teqniques in this video, and for youtube mixing/mastering it definetly works best with a loud kick.
But it cannot be stressed enough that for spotify/apple music etc. releases, you need that snare/clap to be on the same level as the kick.
Levelling your sounds according to DB is also a HUGE issue, since that is not a correct measurement for sound. You should instead use your ears and listen to the mix.
Lol just hit 13:00 in th video and you said pretty mch that, great video man! Gonna support you for sure!!
thx g
Your right DB is the incorrect measurement for streaming. Its actually LUFS. There's a bunch of information on the correct LUFS for your track when uploading for streaming.
@@A_Class216 also there’s false/inaccurate information about LUFS, such as -14 being the magic number when having volume normalization off most trap songs reach from -9 to -6 LUFS. It all depends on the genre you’re going for, though
@@tomasmileguir5659 In edm, it’s very common for producers to mix to -2 LUFS as-well lol
So snares/claps n kicks need to be same volume u mean?
Appreciate your knowledge it's helped me immensely
Giving good game appreciate it, gods work bless
I mix my tracks... How I want... And my ears like it
If you're making beats for artists it's different mate.
Believe me you need just good ear for music thats all..Don't believe to these "gurus" that tell you that u need to cut to 150 hz etc..Just use ur ear and listen to all genres of music.Peace
@@darkovasiljkov3872 Imagine a mix/mastering engineer tells you cut everything below 30Hz. Mate you should do that because it's not audible at that range. Some of these "gurus" speant time learning
@@hyt8997 ik thats true but a lot of people follow numbers only and dont use their ears.Or they say like this guy told me below 30 Hz and more than that he dont do this..Its like robot doing things what people tell u
that's the way to go. this video doesn't teach shit
This was so useful you got my sub my friend well done 🔥🙏
Mixing engineers: nope, this is wrong, hire me instead
Also mixing engineers: **does the exact same thing**
yeah, I think some are also getting offended because it comes across as discrediting to engineers. But at the same time, ain't nobody say that this was a tutorial for making radio-ready mixes.
@@Finnathegod you did a great job. dont even sweat these haters bro

Very good video homie! Good stuff!

great video. def recommend to anyone new to hip hop production
Very helpful, thanks!
the tone and control of ur voice says "I know my sNice tutorialt!". Good stuff buddy.
life changing tips
This was very helpful. You don't know how bad my mixing was on what would otherwise be a good beat before watching this.
Wow..nice info...and tips..i will try that leveling technique..
Literally just saved my life
This is a dope tutorial and I have a bunch of old beats I can fix up now. One thing I would say is don't play beats in between "before and afters" because it's extremely hard to switch between before and your background beat and after. Keep it up your tutorials are amazing my guy.
will do g, I think I might just keep the background beat the same as the one I'm deconstructing in the tutorial.
thx perfectly explain in one video! Good job.
you tha MAN! Thank you
Thanks bro fireee
Damn thank you soo much g all that knowledge u giving it's so cool
Np G. That's why they call me professor finesser
