How To Sidechain ONLY the Bass and Sub Frequencies 

Flipping flamingo!

9:15 Michael is like "Don't say the F word!... oh no, I just said 'f', now I need to say something, hmm... Flipping Flamingo!" Family Friendly Channel :D

Peak controller is one of those secret lethal weapons. Is useful for a lot of stuff and this is one of those. Another way to do this is linking the pregain knob of the low band in Maximus. Sugestion: teach your followers how to do freq panning with EQUO

I can already see memes being created with the end😅.. classic FL studio

If it wasn’t for you I’d literally have no knowledge on anything done in FL Studio I praise you and this channel 🙏🏻

Another plugin can you use is fabfilter pro-c2 and select frequency from 20-125hz, very fast attack & fast-medium release and treeshold around 18db so it will sidechain only on low frequency.Your kick will never clash again with you sub, if you want sidechain all low frequency you can move until 200hz Other plugins great to sidechain are : fabfilter pro-mb, waves factory spacers Nb : main feature you need to know about sidechain is frequency selecting, you can select what frequency you want to sidechain, this really important especially when you want sidechain your drum loops (where inside of patterns are include kick,snare,hihat,ride, percussions) you only want sidechain chain your low right? So frequency selection feature is really important. Try it 🙌🏻 cheers

The crash bit at the end.... Thats why I now use studio one 4.5 haha.

You can also link peak controller to reverb. The reverb will go to zero if a new note is playing and the reverb will automatically go up again after the note has played. Really cool.

Wait until the end ;) Hope everyone is having a good holiday/weekend :) I'm taking a break in Santa Monica! ▶Get My Sound Bank Here: bit.ly/inthemixstore

You’re awesome for including that very last part. Welcome to the real world. Excellent tutorial. BTW I’m 70 and just getting interested in all this very confusing stuff but I ain’t quitting.

I'm literally trying to sidechain, watching your older video, then I see this.. You are a lifesaver mate

Thanks again for yet another wonderful, clear video on such a controversial, rather unclear topic, Michael! 🧡

Your videos are always top notch Michael. I've actually done this technique recently on the high end frequencies of a reverb applied to a snare. It gave the snare a bit more body without the full reverb coming through.

Thank you Michael for this Sidechaining Tutorial. For a while now, I've only been using Automation to sidechain my Kicks to my bass, but this video has helped me realise there's other methords I could use to get cleaner results.

Creative as usual Hitting the expectations day after day Keep up bro

every tutorial I have watched made it so complicated and you explained it perfectly. thank you!

I still cant believe these videos are free, thank you for these great lessons Michael!

Been waiting for this. Thanks!

try studio one

Theres SOOOOO many tutorial on FL Studio online.. but YOURS are the BEST Ive seen.. and trust me.. I've seen TONS!!! Thank you!!! I was looking for a different sidechaining method.. Im going to try this out!!

Trackspacer by Wavesfactory ?

Thank you for explaining specifically where to insert the units. You inspired me to get FL studio and make music again. I also acquired serum yesterday. Music feels exciting again. I appreciate your contribution and more importantly, the consistency and clarity in your approach. Have a happy Christmas!

This was extremely helpful because I used to just outright sidechain the kick and bass and it felt kind of overwhelming. I'll definitely be playing with more of the controllers. Thank you.

well isn't this just perfect i swear i learn something new with each video!!!!!! THANKS AS ALWAYS Michael

you’re amazing & i appreciate your videos & approach to coaching

THIS is what I have been seeking knowledge on how to do. You (both) have taught me so much, but this wins a comment and a much deserved thank you!!!

How timely - I'm working on track that would very much benefit from this. Videos are always spot on. Thanks!

Thank you very much for sharing your experience. Your videos are always really well done. Compliments !

This was soooo needed brooo love your tutorials massive help let me put you on 5% of my royalties I swear 👏🏼👏🏼

That max setting in the automation was a gem 💎

Your Videos are providing so much useful knowledge, this one is no exception. Good Job Michael :)

I love watching your videos because they’re simultaneously super informative and incredibly peaceful. Lol. Your voice is somehow comforting my dude, no homo. Haha.

You are really young but you have information like a professor, love you

Best channel on RU-vid to learn mixing.

I don't know what to say bro... Thank you so much for teaching me all these FL Studio tricks. I had no idea this was possible (the 2nd trick). The video is about sidechaining, but, to me, the most valuable thing that I learned is what the FL peak controller does and how you can link parameters to controllers. Thanks to your videos, i'm becoming less and less scared of all the settings that seem so complicated and that I did not understand. I love your channel.

Thank you Michael, I was actually looking for frequency dependent ducking or sidechain, mainly for mis to high frequency content and percussion, so one sound gets out the way of the other to tame the masking and build-up of certain frequencies, as a way of taming the harshness in the upper mids, without removing too much of the presence, and these techniques were just what I was looking for 🙂

You are just crushing this. Thanks a lot!

You can also use this technique if your snare's fundamental frequency isn't quite standing out in the mix. Thank you for uploading this technique, I've been using it for 3 years and I'm glad you're showing it to more people :)

thank you so much for sharing all this knowledge!!

Learned something, again. Nice work man.

Crazy tutorial on bass mixing 😍😍 lovely

Never even thought about doing this, Love it

That second tip I never heard of until today! I usually use Gross Beat as my sidechain, but using the peak controller method seems way more flexible. Great tutorial!

Very helpful, I will try this in my projects. Thank you!

For more precise way to do it is simply open maximus .. create automations for low, mid & high gain control and you will have more control over the sidechain for any frequency .. I personally do it and it's really great method.

I love the way you teach. You help me big time for a beginner like. My music sounded like I tripped and fell with a bunch of instruments.

I want to learn fl studio. I find this channel. I see tons of videos with proper length and good education. Blast that free time. I got tutorials to watch :'D I love this channel

Always a great and detailed explanation....mad and respect 👍👍

Just found your channel, and I already love it

Dude, just use multiband compression with sidechain. Happy New year 😁

This is basically dynamic EQ, the same thing a TDR Nova can do

I eagarly waiting for the nxt video brother...😊

Excellent again Michael! Thx mate.

Thank you for the great tutorials. You’re amazing.

This video is perfect, because nobody teach this as easy as you do :')

Thank you for the amazing videos you do!!! They are really helpful!!!

You are one of the best teachers ever

This is AWESOME and very helpful. Thanx! 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿👍🏿

How are your tutorials so good, goddamn

i’ve been using fl studio for 6 years and i just discovered this. thats amazing!!

Thank you so much the advance is what I don't know I have been needing for years. God bless you Amen

That first take clip was beautiful.

Finally, another video! 👍😁

Your videos are soooo amazingly helpful!

Flipping Flamingo.......this man is really awesome... these tutorials are extremely helpful. Thank you bro!!

OHH THE VIDEO I WANTED!!!!

Brilliant lesson! Thank you.

I admire your fluent and simplified way of teaching👌✌💪👼.

Very nice technique, thanks a lot 🙏👍🏻

Thank you for this video 🙏🏼

Solid technique. Thanks m8

I'm a begineer, but I'm surprised you did not mention the use of multiband compressors. Is their cases where you would prefer this technique, instead of a multiband compressor, where you can control transients more precisely with the attack and release knobs, instead of relying on the exact peak signal / drawing approximate curves ? Super nice video as usual !

Great explanation!

Thank you so much this was very helpful

Love this tutorial 😀

Very useful bro, thanks!

U have really helpful tips....thanx a lot man!!!

Really helpful! Thank you

This beat is badass. I love it!

i love your channel!!!! THANK YOU!!!

Great yet again!

Sounds like on of ur best songs i want to hear it when u finish ittt

what a dope tutorial, I used this to mix a synth bass with a short 808 (zay/spinz (for the trap producers) and it sounds clean 🔥🙌

Thanks guy! You are a Genius! You've really helped me find the solution I was looking for! God Bless you

I’m so glad RU-vid starting telling me about you again... Jeez I missed so much info.

so awesome thanks for this !

Thank you bro. you a good teacher

This. This right here. Is a fire tutorial.

I did not know about that max volume knob. Thanks :)

Thank You Bro🙌🙌Very Helpful Video🔥🔥.

When FL Studio crashed, I felt it in my soul. Big ups, sick video

This technique vs Surfer EQ vs sidechained multiband dynamic compressor?

Great tutorial lad! This is mixing/mastering wise a lot better (ofc style is subjective in every case) than using Limiter, since it doesnt entirely cut it but lowers correct frequencies.

Hi Michael can you do a Tutorial on Pitcher? You're the only channel who does really good tutorials that are right.

Great tips, very grateful, in my opinion the second is easy as the first one and it's not so easly to clipping! Thanks

Method 2 is very useful ❤❤❤❤

U can do this simply in plugin called track spacer

i knew both ways to sidechain kick with bass. but i didnt knew the max value on the automstion clip. this will really help

Thanks brother 💙
