A friend got a Problem with a too present and wide kickbase IT IS Killing some parts of the hihats and its rolling over another I think it has to be shortened somehow Cause If overlaps to the next basekick Typical african bambata Kick But how can you handle this in a 2 track Beat I Dont think you Just use Multiband EQ With this i can make the hihats louder but it Better to adjust the frequencies To shorten IT If kills many Things even the headroom vor the voice IT Sounds Like the vocal has to swim on everything and isnt Part of the inside Soul of the instrumental

Everyone says boost the kick at 100 Hz, but as I found out early on, do the opposite of what you hear. Some things you hear lead to the result, but others lead to the opposite. It's all extremely genre and era dependent. Compare and learn, compare and learn. Mixing is like treasure digging. Some things nobody talks about. You discover it by listening closely and analyzing the recordings. These mixing and mastering engineers are refined people, real geniuses, inventing their own plug-ins to achieve a certain effect, spending on hardware like on a house. Those who say mixing is not art, they don't know what art is. There are good mixes and breathtaking mixes, they differ maybe only 2%, but what happens in the 2% is real magic, experience and thinking outside the box. Thank you Warren, it feels good that you are there!

Awesome video Warren! I think the biggest thing for me is in the past I never used a reference track in my mixes because I was a little confused about how the reference track would sound with the plugins I had on the master bus.

Thank you Warren. A good recap with nuggets of new information. I'm a fan of the panning to create space. Just wanted to share another tip I use for a chorus. Increasing the BPM slightly in the chorus can give a sense of movement without the listener noticing, but will feel it. For example 120bpm try recording your chorus at 122/123bpm. Simple but effective.
