How To Create Space and Separation In Your Mixes (With Submixing) 

Incredibly helpful. I love the idea of creating some separation and gluing the different groups of tracks. thx again!

Already applied so many of your tips on the songs I record. This is very helpful!!

I have definitely seen results. Took a few courses a few years ago and learned so much. Wish I had done it even sooner but better late than never. 🔥 💪🏽

Milky. That's a new adjective to add to my collection of mixing adjectives

You make me excited to process sir! Thank you!

Nice content 💯 Best I’ve watched in a long while ... keep it up 👍🏼 Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬

bro what a great technique! love you channel x

Sounds great. A go to channel for our challenge to ourselves to write, record and promote our own album on budget equipment into the UK rock album top 40.

Thanks for what you're doing! Respect!

Best channel out there for production by a mile, thank you

Thanks for sharing! It would be helpful to show a before and after of your work at the end.

very educative,thnx for this,this brings next level

That little explosion at 2:40 is my favorite

This production and mixing is great

Gotta try this out rn. Thanks!

very useful info! thanks!

Wowwwww this is a brilliant idea. 🔥💯

dope video! thank you!

That's very interesting. I will apply it to prove.

Really excellent - Have been working on my mixing chops and this brings it to the next level. Thanks.

I love this. Kinda of new to DAW but even on outboard jam tracks on 24s I'd group by low bass mid and high. Not quite like this. But each got a d easer and a limiter and dynamic EQ.

Awe this is great.. Do you guys have a course or video explaining how to set up and route a sub mix like this starting from the beginning and explaining the different routes? Why it’s routed a particular way etc.... I hope to hear back from you guys appreciate your time and you guys are awesome thank you!!!

That's a really helpful technique mate .. u always supervise as ,keep pushing ✌😇!!!

A+ for the proper use of the term "stems". :)

Best Channel.

I didn't even realize I was doing this in FL STUDIO. But I be doing this just to be even more organized. I just want to twist some knobs for each song that just effect the whole mix, a few knobs to control the tower you know?

I thought this was a common mixing technique everyone used?? Group busses with dedicated processing on each...maybe not... Saw a great video where Dave Ratt uses this for all his live sound mixes. I did this exact thing in setting my live mixes. It helps keep everything controlled and in its own place.

Best mix.

thankz

Great lesson, is this multi track avaliable?

Great video! Can you please share how you move mix channels left and right in Logic? It's stumped me forever!

Wow! thanks to this! =) whats the title of the song? so beautiful!

that's what i do and i make the whole thing shine in mastering instead of killing the dynamics with a compressor and relying on multiband compressors to fix the mixing problems

Great video! But one thing got me. The song is REALLY good.

What magic button did you click to move your aux tracks in the mixer window???

I really like this song...Can you tell me who sings it? I already Tried to shazam it, but couldn't find it. Btw all of your Videos are amazing. I've learned so much!! Thank you very much!

Video is missing a BEFORE and AFTER at the end.

Another way to create differences in the music is to put an EQ on any bus and put 1 db on any frequency for the L and take that 1 db for the R.

Great tutorial but I have a question, if we send Kick drum and Bass into same bus then what about sidechain?

great tutorial, can you tell me whats the difference between usin aux busses and track stacks in logic? cos track stacks are easier to use..regards

How does it move the buses to the left?

we're just gonna scooch

So it’s like a Brauerize light

Any specific reason why there is Ozone imager before EQ? Compression before EQ i understand, but i personally would always try to EQ the "raw" signal first... then the rest! Maybe this is again the never ending discussion "which comes first...?"

A t 3:05. Please tell me how you are “scooching” these sub mixes in the mixer. How can this be done and arranged as you do? Thanks!

Is the presenter singing the song?

crazy how i’ve been doing this for a year without knowing the term

I always have this confusion: How I can group these elements as you do while I am routing these to the original groups? Drums, Bass, Gtrs...

how to get this Template?

are you from the same neighborhood as sean evans from hot ones? that accent is fuckin slappin hard

lol this guy sounds like he's about to start screaming..."we're gonna UUUUSSSEEEAARRRRGH"

1:52

I'm just here to comment on the obnoxious trend launched from youtubers of inserting random red arrows and circles on thumbnails as in "look this knob it's the secret setting that will solve your life" even if that knob is not even mentioned in the video

As much as I like your videos. that intro needs to be changed lol

Tooo long video for 5 min concept!
