1.- Use Less Sub 2.- Use Less Reverb 3.- Master using Parallel Compression 4.- Use EQ to find resonant frequencies and sustract them 5.- Use master volumen automation to make your drop hits with more impact 6.- Control your snare, make it loud as your lead vocal.

Your tone is so much more hypnotic than any other tutorial. You actually put me in a bit of a learning trance lmao. Love you dude

Realest puppet in the game

this production is unreal. that whole loops lady and her tone of voice almost killed me. subscribed, man

Easily one of the best Ableton channels on KZfaq man .love it. Great tips , great tutorials and amazing puppeteering !

Of all of the videos I have looked up over the last 2 years, I'm always happy to see your face when searching for Ableton answers. Keep it up sir.

Thanks for the tutorial but where's the jellyfish lamp ?! 😮

Another super helpful video! Thank you so much, Reid.

Best Ableton tutorials on KZfaq.

Compression in parrellel and mixing my kick/bass separately from the rest of my percs alone has rare candied my mix game, all thanks to you man. Thanks 👌🏾👌🏾

Cant wait for future vids :) very informative/high quality stuff.

These are the realest tutorials in the game. I Always walk away with more and more knowledge. Thanks Reid Stefan!!!!!!

Dude i really need you to do another video on this. Maybe explaining loudness metering, LUFS, and how it compares to streaming loudness and whatnot. I would really appreciate. Thanks for the knowledge!

Im watching all your videos but this ad gets me every time... its so hilarious

Heres an idea. How about a video on getting the most out of stock plugins. A lot of tutorials give examples using high end plugins and or plugin suites which a lot of beginning and even more intermediate producers may not have.

love u man!! amazing! soooo insightful and so well made!

There are some of the most helpful tutorials. Thank you Reid

Your videos are awesome! Informative and hilarious. Keep it up.

I learned almost all of these the hard way. #1 can't be said enough times. Another great video!

Man glad I found your content, this is really useful. Thank you!

love the point about sloping down the buildup to leave volume room. realest puppet in the game

These tutorials are amazing. Thank you very much!!!

Love those untouched topics like this. Great insights!

i love your channel man, so concise, well spoken... resonates with me

all the tips are gold man ty!

GREAT VIDEO DUDE

Such a good vid, u legend. thanks for the solutions to all my problems

i said this in the last video i watched by you, but imma say it again. you make learning hella fun with this puppet xD Love your channel dude :)

So unique way of doing tutorials. subbed

I like this video because I think a lot about how I can make sounds good and perfect. It's a big step but I do think im learning and this video has really made me understand a bit more about leads so thanks for this video

The part about the build and turning it down as it goes is fucking amazing

Love vibe of this channel.

This channel is awesome!

Reid is the best!💪

Thank you again and again!

great video. I like how you focused on fundamental issues/mistakes which can often be a simple fix...mistakes which we all make and it's easy to forget and not persue the obvious fixes of a mix because I believe if you get the basics right (although nothing really seems basic), you can sound like a world class producer/mixer. Too much emphasis is on the use of this or that plugin these days. Thanks for keeping it real. Subscribed :)

Hey Reid. Just binge watching your mastering vids. Ive reached the end of my mix but unfortunately haven't gain staged properly, I'm just about to clip without anything on the master (@-.05), is it recommended to pop a utility on the master to bring it back by 3 or 4 db so I can have headroom to use limiter thereafter

So good videos, be blessed with more knowledge and fire beats :D

Great tutorial.

Thanks so much these tutorials and tips are the best on KZfaq for me. Can you please discuss how to meet industry standards? Having never worked with a label or anything I have no clue what their mixdown/mastering standards are. Such as frequency cuts, master volume, format/bit rate, and any other secret tips and specifications you know of.

Killer tips

Great Tutos Mate ! I have difficulties to find Tuto simply about how to get more volume for a great bounce, even when I'm master is nearly red.. Thank you! I like the puppet style

this puppet aint no pinnocio , content is fun and fundamental knowledge

I think youre amazing & different! keep it up

thank you. so damn useful.

Thank you my friend. I think it's good that you include in-depth information always. However, it may be more even more helpful to do a quick example in between each debriefing. Great video though

Nice!!

damn i was used to the later "eeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIts"

TUTUROIAL TUESDAY WOULD LOVE TO A VIDEO ON ACOUSITC TREATMENT AND THE LINK TO BUY THE ONES U GOT

great thanks

I appreciate you

i fucking love ur intro dude

Next video idea. How to reference your own tracks to professional tracks.

just found your channel. Subbed ! btw did anyone ever told you your voice sounds like Sadowick?

I must sub by now.

I regularly mix my loudest noises to be -10.5 for the purpose of dynamic headroom and what I do, is I'll compress my kick, set it to -10db on the meter. compress my snare stack (threshold of -6 to catch all the important noise) TWICE and brick wall that baby. Throw those two + cymbal drum rack into a group and limit everything so that the group peaks at -10.5db. In the end, when I throw my sub (which can only peak at -16 with this method) in, it only gets to about -9db on the master. My synths will bring the overall sound up to about -7db and the only hit -12.5 on the postfader. They stay present due to 2 stage compression (compressing in parallel multiple times in a row) because the perceivable dynamic range is brought to the forefront. how I'm supposed to get NSD loud in Ableton is a god damn mystery to me since the stock limiter causes ducking but hell, if I found out, I'll tell everyone.

make a video on song arrangement please

did you do the tutorial about cutting mud with the eq? seems i cant find that one

do a tutorial on the beat repeat. I have made crazzy bass tones. out of it. every time I look at it though it's a mystery to me. I love your channel. keep up the good work

Thanks for sharing,the tutorial is wonderful,if you can show these tips with the computer that will be fantastic,especially the number3,thanks, professor puppet

You should make an ASMR channel

I find myself enjoying making harsh electric dance music mostly dubstep and such and being an amateur producer im often confused by the levels of things. I wonder if you could do an in depth explanation of making dubstep, finding the right sounds and balancing the levels in regards to importance. P.S. I really enjoy your videos they are very informative!

Do you ever make a detailed vid on frequency sweeping

thx

IiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiT'S Production Time 👍

That whole loops advert was actually jokes haha

Question? how do you do parallel compression for the master channel in logic x?

The intro feels like intervention 😆

As the formidable vegetable sound system says "lettuce turnip the radish beats and roquet!!!"

Number 2 is something I've tried to convince my friends of for years.

Where did you learn all this stuff so accurately?

So if u dont compress on master buss and u do parallel on returns, do u just use a limiter on the mixbus?

I see you've planted yourself on the front lines of the loudness war

ohk i used to use "Mastering - Make It Loud" preset before this tutorial, is it still fine!!?? :/

Have you cut your hairs? they re different...

I wonder if this reverb thing really applies to dungeon techno.

nice

I found you when looking for mastering tips... I found the master... the puppet master

It's production time.

Crest factor with regard to rms and headroom?????????

What MIDI keyobard do you have??

Reverb is dangerous, can wash out a mix really easily! Unless you're going for a certain effect/vibe, just make sure you control it and put it in it's own space and it works with the idea/track.

You have an ASMR voice

ONLY ONE THING WOULD LOVE TO SEE HOW U CONNECT ALL THESE HARDWARE GEAR TO YOUR PC

ahh.. never thought of just sidechaining the snare against the entire track.. wow..

Your puppet needs a bath! Nose and mouth getting a little dirty =) Thank you for the awesome videos they are helping me a ton!

This could be a stupid q .. :( but what is sub ? .. the bass ? or what ? what is stand for '? thank iu

I’m sorry, did you say solution?

Brooo, you got something on your nose! Haha

a puppet that does music production? How am I just finding this out?

Tip 1. MORE SUB

need to turn down the bass in this vocal track mane

Notice me senpai

iiiiiitsssss production time 🤣

Great video reid! How on earth could you afford an la2a?? hook me up i want one of your jobs that make you afford those gems!! :o

hahahaha ,funny doll

You could try and make it at least seem like he’s talking with the voice, you just moving ur hand randomly making him speak at the random moments

i cant look you in the eyes bc theyre jiggling

its barely asmr at the begining

I just still find weird that a puppet is teaching me about producing... I suck
