As a bassist, I must say this is very crucial for anyone producing modern dance music. Thank you Alice!

Happy to help 😊✌️

Great tutorial Alice! You're starting to show off some advanced stuff here and I'm absolutely loving it🙏🏼

@ephjaymusic Год назад

Excellent demonstration of how isolating and referencing specific bands can allow for you brain to make better decisions, without being fooled by the mids and other perceived loudness tricks when listening full spectrum. 👊🏻❤️

@Alice-Efe Год назад

It is always a bit more tricky to hear specific bands when full spectrum is playing. Cheers Eph-Jay!

@evelynbrito5229 Год назад

Can you make a video showing how to use tracks as a reference to create new ideas?

@Retro-zn2jt Год назад

the right level depend of the context, if the bass is the main element of your song then you can set up the level you "want", and build around the bass, there are many technics you can use, with the help of Voxengo SPAN for example, but this one is cool too. But yes, having at least one reference is important, it help a lot

i love this ! could you do a video on loudness / loudness meters ? im always confused between rms, LUFS, vs integrated and short term (for the whole mix, not just low end)

@BreakzTerrorist Год назад

Great to see a good tutorial that is much deeper and more advanced than most of the yt crap. You really have a knowledge! You could work on your accent, but dont treat it as an insult or something like that, just a way to improve a channel that's already very good and usefull.

@ko_3x335 Год назад

Great Video. Thanks for sharing.

@nmarc Год назад

I actually spent about a year searching for low end secrets. Doing my own experiments to analyze other tracks on the low end. Watched this video with the same interest. Hopefully. I did the same thinng with eq, I have made them a default template for all of my productions. And I used sMexoscope, bluecat audio analayzer with 2000ms release and, 10 precision setting, peak line off, to find low end resonances and the level of each notes of kick and bass note. With that I analyze two options, waveform (gain) with sMexoscope, volume levels by frequency (notes) with Bluecat audio analyzer. Why bluecat is cz its spectrum is working nicely in this case. So I balance low end with equalizer on kick and basses (Tonality), and volume faders (levels). Now I'm kind of used to it and don't use reference tracks. Bcz the low end balance really depends on the sounds and the tracks we produce.

@batuhanhamurkaroglu5448 Год назад

Hocam I want to contribute a little more to this even though I am not as knowledgeable as you for sure :) What I like to do is to use a plugin on master channel which A/B's a selected loop on the referance track and your track, set a PRO-Q after the A/B plugin (to visualize better) and set EQ bands between 0-100, 100-200, 200-400, 400-1000, 1000-4000, 4000-20khz, do critical listening and surgical EQ to match the referance as closely as possible while keeping it at my taste :) I will also add this steps you showed me to my workflow from now on. Thank you for great content much love

hi! i love your videos, really usefull all of them... i was wondering if there is any chance that you make one about "how to make a track like Silver Panda" using his track Soul Connection or Close to me as reference. I love that type of melodic techno but really have no idea how to get there

@rabihrizk4114 Год назад

The perceived loudness should be matched between the two tracks first cause normally the reference tune will be mastered

As far as the Low/High Pass EQing on the sub 200hz what are your thoughts on linear phase vs zero latency?

Ace tutorial covering all the bases (SORRY!) about how to produce and mix bass in any project. Love this channel so much Alice you're a legend. edit: a recent study from Canada has shown that people dance more if they 'feel' a sub that they can't hear. Turns out sub bass is incredibly important, so let's all push it hard.

@Alice-Efe Год назад

Hey Alice, great video. Just one small comment a lot of the links to favorite FX plug-ins in the description don't work and go to a generic plugin boutique page rather than a specific product page. Maybe worth double checking them!

@AndrewDun1 Год назад

Great tutorial, however I got lost at around 3:46. You mention that if the low loudness doesn't match, you can 'bring it down a bit more', but you don't explain how to do that. If we adjust peaks by changing the channel gain, then how do we adjust the loudness? Also, most of the discussion relates to the bass, but in the example, we are listening to both bass and kick. So, should we also be making adjustments to the kick?

@jeromekrupp3116 Год назад

just get the tonal balance control from Ozone, helps me big time.

@highhat5229 Год назад

What's the solution for a high pass filter that's boosting the bass on its cut off frequency?, I think it's due to phasing but idk

@Alice-Efe Год назад

Here it is not a problem as both reference and original uses same filter and boosted equally. And once the levels are fixed, you take of high pass / low pass filters. Linear phase eqs are the tools to avoid high pass issues but they can create preringing with kicks. So it depends what you want to use it for. I had a video about it couple of months ago, check that out.

@highhat5229 Год назад

@@Alice-Efe can you link the video please Alice

@WebbiiTV Год назад

Alice, I fucking love you. That is all.

@Yzera_ Год назад

But, instead of breaking the bass into different module, isn't it faster to use a multiband compressor instead ? And then something like Pha 979 for phasing ?

@Alice-Efe Год назад

This method gives you a bit more flexibility and helps you matching closer. Also doesn’t create phasing issues. If you do it with only MB the sound will start to break apart for drastic changes between bands. For more subtle adjustments mb should work.

@ALifeTheKidd Год назад

Does this Work for Hi Hats, Claps, Perc

@Alice-Efe Год назад

As long as you can isolate them probably (low end is easy to isolate as there are not much going on there apart from sub bass) it should work

@ALifeTheKidd Год назад

@@Alice-Efe Got it im going to do this ... Usually intro & outro there isolated ...But the Approach you just showed will probably work for it..THANKS

what if I want to leave to headroom for mastering?

@FLASH136631 Год назад

big thanks for tutorial btw

@Alice-Efe Год назад

Thank you! Once you have finished mixing, delete the limiter and bring down the volumes.

@xavierdebordeaux Год назад

I dream of being famous and being able to entrust the mixing to a professional and just make music. always try to improve a little more every day the technical aspect of the mix but you have to be a little geek (or be a sound engineer with the training that goes with it) to go so far in the sound mixing

@Alice-Efe Год назад

I hope you get there! There is nothing wrong with wanting to only focusing on artistic side of the music and leaving the technical details to engineers. 😊

@waruisaru Год назад

@kideit90 Год назад

Hey Alice, super interesting reference trick. However; If i got it right you basically put a limiter on your master track to match the limited style of the reference, and you isolate the bands in the mix bus ( lows, drums). The problem is in the reference you use the eq after the limiter, while in your track you use the eq before the limiter (causing the limiter to only work on the filtered area, while on reference it works for the whole track since the eq is after) Should be better to use the eq to filter directly on your track master bus after the limiter so its a 1:1 reference? Maybe you have done like that and I missed that step. Anyway keep going 😀

@Alice-Efe Год назад

Hi Kide! In original track; limiter first and low pass filter afterwards. Limiter is on the low end bus. That is reason I suggested at the end of video that if after level adjustments, the limiter is not limiting at all or limiting too much; then adjust the limiter and do the same circle again. On reference track, the same, limiter first and low pass afterwards. And we pick a place in a track where it is less crowded and low end is driving the limiter. And then we have YouLean for measurement after low pass filter. I am lazy to watch whole video again but I think you can see both chain when camera zooms out on Ableton in some places. Hope this helps, Cheers
