So I just wanna take this time out to say how grateful I'm today for watching this tutorial. I don't usually comment anywhere with such enthusiasm as I am filled with in today. First of all, I wanna thank you Sean Divine for this channel and all the great tutorials. Really they helped me a lot and unlike these other creators that focus on building their "KZfaqr - like" persona while doing music, you actually give out gems through these tutorials without compromising quality. A fine example of professionalism. Today I was stuck on an 808 part of my mix and I didn't know what to do or where to go next, I added whole bunch of plugins but it kept making the mix more and more unnatural to sound on my phone speakers. I was so frustrated and annoyed. I watched atleast 4+ hours of videos on KZfaq and none of them helped me in any sort of ways (and these videos were of mixing engineers with more than 100k+ subs). Despite being subbed to you for so long, it didn't occurred to me to watch your video. Shame on me. But then I searched and this popped up right at the top. I wish I could've watched this 8 minute video without wasting my 4 hours of watching complete BS. You truly deserve a lot more. Keep making such amazing tutorials, man! I personally really appreciate it.

I used this process (with a different plug in but same process), and I was able to turn up my 808 w/o drowning out any other parts of the instrumental or the vocals. I got a nice bassline now that is present in the mix as opposed to the one that I was having to tuck back to keep from overpowering the vocals, etc.

Thanks for great video Sean. Just one quick question. Can I EQ HIGH 808 track (of course using Linear phase EQ to avoid phase issues) or it's better to leave it as it is (apart from cutting low freq of course). Abd also when further in process I want to EQ that 808 sound I understand the best way is to group LOW and HIGH into group channel (BUS) and EQ them together. Thank you. Lucas

@Robthehobyist 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks for your lessons they are so helpful. your beats are crazy fire. Do you have any lessons on how to compress the bass to make it sound thicker and fuller and so the levels don't keep going up and down on the channel to keep it all at one level. Thanks

Thanks!

@cbrooks0905 4 жыл бұрын

It’s specific to Logic. It definitely has to do with the source, too. I always grab i, first, whenever I need a distortion; sometimes it’s perfect; sometimes it’s not quite what I’m looking for.

@kaiveebeats6455 4 жыл бұрын

I have problems when seperating the 808. Its maybe because this sample aint perfect for this move. I can Not make it Hit as hard as if i let the 808 alone. I get some weird phasing issues. Maybe i will give it a try again but i think i will be sticking to multiband effects on the high frequencies of the 808 :) or am i doing something wrong maybe ?

@Frobbl 6 жыл бұрын

Basically this would also be possible without splitting the 808 into 2 channels by using a multiband distortion plugin like Fabfilter Saturn or even better Ohmicide, right? (And for stereo width of the higher frequencies Izotope Ozone could possibly do the job.)

@SeanDivine 6 жыл бұрын

yes! that would work also (love ohmicide by the way)

@Frobbl 6 жыл бұрын

Perfect, I hate splitting to multiple channels/creating busses/sends and try to avoid it unless it absolutely can't be avoided haha I've never really used ohmicide so far in my released stuff but I'm trying to get into it atm. Maybe you could do a video about it some time if you feel like it'd be a good idea. But then again I have never seen anyone else ask for this in below your videos so it'd probably not really be worth the effort.
