I’ve been a producer/ beat maker For well over 30 years. Started making beats I was 13 years old. I just turned 49 in November. So I’m a dinosaur😂😂😂. These tips are spot on. It’s very important to have some basic mixing skills. It’s also good to have your beats mixed. Here’s why... most artist will use the 2 track about 90% of the time. Very few will purchase the actual trackouts (or stems) of the beat. Usually because the trackouts will usually cost more. In order to compete with the industry standards. Your beats need to be mixed well straight out the gate. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve told the artist to reach out to producer to obtain the trackouts because the Two track beat sounds terrible. Mastering a song with a beat with a terrible mix it won’t yield good results. The worst thing to hear is an artist rapping over your beat and it sounds like shit on Apple Music and all the streaming platforms. Not only that but it makes you as a beat maker sound amateur due to bad sound quality. A mediocre beat with a great mix will stand out more than a great beat with a bad mix on it. If you’re gonna compete as a beat maker it’s imperative that you learn how to mix your own beats. Plus mixing your beats can and will give it your own unique sound signature. In these modern times you’re beats aren’t really finished until you’ve mixed it. It’s a part of the beat making process nowadays. He did a great job in this tutorial.

Great Tips to use from this video: Wave Candy Meter: 2:05 EQ'ing Your Sounds 2:21 (Mix in Mono) EQ'ing Melodies 2:55 Great Trick: 4:25 EQ'ing 808s: 4:55 (People can't hear beyond 20hz, Don't cut too much low end) Melody Effects: 5:51 (mess with panning and reverb, don't go too crazy) 808 Effects: 8:02 Leveling: 9:05 Ideal Levels to use: 10:25 Master Effects: 12:05 (Limiter also works, Make sure to turn envelope off) Awesome Video bro.

I love that you’re talking about the 808 at 8:08! Nice work

All the mixing engineers be hating on the comment section lmaooo

Everyone be wanting the mixing sauce the top producers use but in reality they just throw fruity soft clipper on and toss it to an engineer lol

who is this guy dropping gems like this?!

If I’ve seen this video by the age of 20, ill probably be a billionaire right now 😂😂🤘🏼 major gems

You’re officially GOATed and nobody can deny that

This is good for basics. Something really important to know is that you will mix differently depending on your genre. If I was making some heavy riddim/Dubstep I wouldn't follow some of these

This is the first mixing tutorial I’ve seen that has helped me immensely thank uuuuu

For sure one of the best channels on KZfaq. Points are clear and to the point. Thank you bro your videos are much appreciated

The amount of information packed into your videos is impressive. Please don't stop

I did this on all of my last few beats and this actually works. You can hear every sound in its own little pocket without interfering with others sounds. I would bring up the frequency where the sound sounds good and then grab another sound and do the same. Then I grab both eq’s and turn down the frequency where the opposite sound sounds good at, on both sounds. This helps create space, avoids interference and allows both sounds to shine in where they sound good. Now when I master i dont have to do much. The bass frequencies sound perfectly and tucked in the melodies don’t interfere with the bass frequencies and don’t interfere with the hi hats. When i play each sound alone they sound empty but when you play all the sounds together they sound full because each sound fills its particularly frequency.

U actually give some very good tips and not those obvious and basic ones. Thank you dude, good content👍🏼

Found you channel when you made that post over reddit regarding wheezy tutorial and m glad I was online that day. These tutorials have been 🔥🔥 and really helpful. Thanks and keep on the good work bro.

Good stuff bro covered everything🔥

EQing the sub frequencies on the 808 was something that never occurred to me and 100% makes them harder. This video has 2 much sauce 🖤

Yeah, we're going to need that sound selection video.

Yoooo you’re a different breed, you finna be the best producer channel on Yt in due time

Bro you are a saint, giving us the sauce for free

Awesome video bro! Definitely tuning in next time

I just mixed the tips from here with the tips on the Metro tutorial and it's my most pro sounding beat ever WTF you're a wizard.

You are on bro. Definitely coming back to this video as a reference. Cheers from New Zealand my dude, keep up the solid work!

As always, thanks for the detail on this super important topic. Sound selection would be dope. Personally, I'd be interested to hear your take on automation tips, switching up drums, more on layering/sound design. Hope that sparks some ideas. Until next time dude!

this helped so much, thanks! all of your tutorials are amazing - some of the best on youtube.

YOU KILLED THE GAME ON THIS!

keep up the amazing work 🔥 💯

Thank you so much for the drum mixing tips, I always felt like my drum mixes were a little too muddy but I just used those recommended ranges and the beat sounds so much better!

that was dope! need to start mixing in mono. One thing I find really helpful about wavecandy is that is has an RMS mode! If youre mix isnt sounding as loud as you want it to, you can mix against the rms meter and you'll know when your mixing decisions are actually making your track sound louder (as opposed to higher peak volume) - doing this really proved to me that the oxford inflator plugin is gold

I definetly agree with a lot of teqniques in this video, and for youtube mixing/mastering it definetly works best with a loud kick. But it cannot be stressed enough that for spotify/apple music etc. releases, you need that snare/clap to be on the same level as the kick. Levelling your sounds according to DB is also a HUGE issue, since that is not a correct measurement for sound. You should instead use your ears and listen to the mix. Lol just hit 13:00 in th video and you said pretty mch that, great video man! Gonna support you for sure!!

This video was a game changer for me. Thanks, Finna, you fire :D

All those tips are legit. you fire 🔥💯

good tips, but reverb on hihats is a taste thing, not a "professional mixer" way, and can just flood your mix with unnecessary constant high frequencies

Great vid bro!!! Thanks 💯

ive been producing since late 2018 and i now realize i havent been mixing my tracks well enough. subscribed

Yo great video bro great tips.. I agree with everything you said in here. Glad to hear it from somebody else to remind myself not to mix too long. Make your moves and keep it pushing. Those DB levels are very important. Salute Stay Up

Good video man. Good samples and good mixing = 90% of a nice track.

Taking notes... You have definitly a really good approach ! 👌✔

you are my hero :D im so happy to have found someone who actually knows what he is talking about! there are so many producers who promise something in their titles and all they do is make an okay beat and be like.

Very good video homie! Good stuff!

Thanks a lot bruh 👍🏽 I had a really hard time trying to mix and master my beats mixing in mono made a huge difference man 💪🏽 those levels numbers really helped to just made a few adjustments put Ozone 9 on the master and maaaan now my sh.. banging like a mooooooof......

This is a dope tutorial and I have a bunch of old beats I can fix up now. One thing I would say is don't play beats in between "before and afters" because it's extremely hard to switch between before and your background beat and after. Keep it up your tutorials are amazing my guy.

Thanks for these videos!!
