MIX FAT BASS Guitar that CUTS Through the MIX
We all love a good bass track, right? But it’s easy for that low-end to get lost in the mix on modern speaker systems.
You need to mix your bass so that the fat sound cuts through and sits perfectly in your mix.
Today, I’m going to take you step-by step through one of my favorite process for getting a bass sound that blows listeners away!
What are your favorite tips for a great bass sound?
Let me know in the comments!

The control of the low end part is perfect, then I put the 2 channels in an aux track to big muff it up and once again, it's perfect, you kick ass dude !

@deathforall2045
@deathforall2045 3 месяца назад
@@Fernando-ry5qt It is full of great albums with the bass standing out beautifully, without compromising the other instruments. Has anyone managed to beat physics? I don't think so. Good equalization and compression are the basis of the basics of music production, especially in a genre as busy as metal. There are a lot of productions where unnecessary frequencies of guitars, keyboards, drums or vocals are left in, producing only noise, and saturating the spectrum that should be dedicated to the bass. Making room and distributing frequencies wisely is not an option if you want a good results, even without using expensive tools. Regarding the fact that you can't beat physics I totally agree with you, we should remember this more often when we go shopping or on vacation by taking a random plane ticket to a random destination just because it's cheap :)

I do something similar but with two copies of the DI'd bass. Other than a bit of compression I leave the DI'd bass alone - perhaps notch some annoying frequencies. have a high passed distortion track like yours and a sub bass copy - the "glued" preset of the stock Steinberg Bass VST is a great start, then I blend in some sub content with BX subsynth. All three tracks then go to a bass group track with gentle compression to glue it.

Yes, yes, yes. If mister Selim talks about mixing bass, hearing is obliged. By the way, I was wondering if a future version (Cubase 20, year 2040, maybe) will have the possibility to do crossovers in the sends. One could do the processing in FX channels with one source. Well, we can add manually the filters in each channel, but that could be an improvement in workflow.

Hey chris, Little late on this video,but as mixing my own bass tracks,i duplicate my track and then,send them to a big compression so that paralel compression occurs.althought,i've noticed you didnt pan your channels hard left and right...is this something you recommend for a bass guitar normally?..or for example,if ive recorded a little sample bass track in the chorus to make it "punchier",should that track stays centre?..my biggest issues in my last mixes was a lot with the panning stuff so im really curious about how to do it properly with each track!

I rely on Waves "In Phase" plugin for fixing phase issues. Sometimes things are not 180 degrees out. The Guitars and Bass phase seem to always be a little out when you re-amp, it really helps fixing that. Plus it's a huge time saver for my one room studio where you can't hear phase relationships until playback.
