Honestly, this should be called "2 Tricks I use...", cos the first thing I noticed was that Reversed Guitar. I thought that Reversed Guitar + Reverb transition was neat as it went into the Lo-Pass Filter. Definitely a 2-trick combo in my book.
Thanks for another great video! This technique is going to go a long way for me. It’s a great way to carve out space for different things and create movement throughout the mix. Thanks again! Best Wishes - Tim
Nathan: That's good man, this is the stuff we love about the Producers Accelerators course. Intentional composition decisions which create well thought out production. Love it man! If you haven't signed up, use the link in the description and level up today!
i’ll definitely be using that first electric guitar idea seems like it’d make a song feel more diverse. also i’ll be waiting for that song! man it’s so good
You and your awesome tricks!! This is such a useful one. I literally just used it for a transition. Lol Thank you for showing us the way!! Much love Nathan!!
This was soooo helpful! Thank you sooo much! How did you do the reverse guitar? Do you have a video on reversing guitar. If you I will search your channel for it.
Actually have a whole video showing how we made it next week on the day it's released on Spotify - we actually produced the whole song out of my car in the Rocky Mountains!
Yep! As you can see I didn't filter out everything - I already had a stack created for the entire set of drums and when I added filtering on all of it - it took out too much, and there are some things I didn't want filtered or I didn't want filtered at the same frequency. Definitely CAN do bus filtering if it's all the same.
Great question - I bounce down that stuff. I mixed this track but I have used mixing engineers before - and on something like this that I know exactly how I want it - I will bounce the effects and "bake it in" or you'll hear some people use the term "commit" I like making those big choices during producing and not mixing because to me it's a production choice and has a lot to do with the actual sound of the track. Obviously you CAN have it done in the mixing stage - and some cool things can happen there, but just in this case I did it during production.
@@NathanJamesLarsen Ohh I get it, basically it’s just a matter of preference. I’m a beginner, so I’m trying to understand the mindset behind this kind of choices, thanks for the quick reply! Greetings from Brazil
Sure! Like I said you can use the opposite and do a high pass filter too. Really for me it's about 1) carving space and 2) designing my sound a bit more
