Shit's fire, bro!

good sound selection is the most important thing i learned in sound engineering college. if you find yourself needing to use any extreme eq or sidechaining to make sounds fit together then something needs to be removed or swapped. i find if i've got a great groove going and it's sounding muddy after some basic eq then the best thing to do is start removing channels one by one. usually you'll find everything becomes a lot clearer and more powerful when you've removed the offending sound which might be great on its own but doesn't work in the mix. choose what the star of the show is and treat your other elements as support

OH MY GOD! The “training wheels” concept is EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for! I’m a newer producer, so anytime I look for help I often see the “music has no rules” cliché and it can be frustrating at time. Thank you so much!

This guys definitely one of the best on KZread with explaining and knowledge about music, respect and thank you

Nice content as usual, high quality video ! Thank you Sikky 🔥 Support from France 🇫🇷

Amazing tips! Thank you!

Big ups bro 👏🏻 this video is not only straight to the point and easy to understand but it’s fixed a lot of problems I’ve been having mixing, already hearing the improvements. Appreciate this.

Awesome video man very helpful!!

Really dope vid bro. Thanks for the tips

This is very useful knowledge! Much appreciated!

Going to watch this again during my mixing process.

Sikky u have the best editing i insist that these are the very best quality producer videos out there .. u’re a master at your craft.. bought your kits, very inspiring

Thank you Réda. This made my day. Hope yours is amazing😊

Great job helping fellow producers. Also in the master cut everything below 20 hz trust me it will make a difference.

The mixing of the snare lower than every other drum element does really make a difference. I implemented that into my music and it really helps!

So many good reminders in here and picked up a couple new tricks too 🙏

Hi thought id add a couple of helpful definitions here to clear up to misunderstanding amongst the "in the box" producers. GAIN STAGING: comes from the world of recording and mixing with analog gear: The act of optimising the signal level through each audio device in a signal chain, or through each section of a mixing console, to maintain an appropriate amount of headroom and keep the signal well above the system noise floor. Compressor attack time: When a sound goes above the threshold, the compressor does not instantly apply the full compression to the overshooting signal. Instead, the compression ratio increases gradually from 1:1 to the maximum within a certain amount of time. This time is called the attack time. let me know what other bits of information I can quickly clear up and add here.

Hey @SIKKY BEATS great video. But can you clear "Phasing issues" for me....I mean I tried to learn through other sources but I'm still standing on the point where I started from. Not really able to understand it man...and what exactly does it sound like so that I know when I'm havin it?...It will be great if you could clear this for me and others too.

@@iamphoeniiix audio wave forms visually go up and down. like a sine wave.∿ imagine when the wave form is on top is +1, and when its below its -1. if you were to play 2 sine waves at the exact same time but one wave form started with +1 and the second wave form started with -1 you would get 0. this is phase. when audio from 2 sources clash with each other and result in a quieter sound. sometimes it is quite in only certain frequencies.

Ty bro I've been making beats since I was 13 and just started fully learning what I was doing 4 yrs ago 🤦 loved your vid following can't wait for the next one bro 🙏

Good dude, good content!

Im producing for 12 years, Im also a trained sound engineer and I really have to say that you mentioned almost all the important things.. I would have only one more important thing to note, which is the right sidechain.. Sidechaining has greatly improved the sound of my songs and is one of the most important components for a good and clean sounding in my opinion :)

​@@Andre21206side chain the sub with the kick, it will clear up the mud that would usually be there from the kick and sub frequencies competing and then use that technique to have (for example) your snare cut thru any instruments that are competing with the crack of the snare... Of course only use it if necessary or else it will thin out your mix

First video I've seen by you but this is super good info to get a beginner's beats knocking like they want. Great presentation too!

This was some great info. I’m struggling with mid range and instrument balancing in my mixes. I have been working on making things more dynamic and balanced. I am slowly building towards compression and busing. Small steps to make sure I’m using things correctly and make it a part of my routine.

I like the idea of mixing while is not loud, seems about the best thing to do. Thanks for effort in this video !!!

That grouping part. I remember an FL guru (on KZread ) shows you how to group your specific tracks

Great advice Thanks for the info im just starting out ;)

thanks for these gems bro

Thanks for the tips brother, subbed for more valuable content!

Dope video man.

Fantastic stuff

8:39 could be good pointing out that this knob will sum your L and R channels into mono which can damage your sound if let's say your 808 is very wide to begin with. Instead, try to turn off the side signal with a matrix plugin that does that

Very good info. Keep inspiring brother.

it's okay to have things on your master while you mix (if you know what you're doing), that's literally the concept of top down mixing. The master is just a buss after all

Noted!

@4:00 a good static mix is 95% of making a great mixdown. Stick to EQ and cutting. Avoid boosting. And take breaks from your mix so your ears don't get fatigued! Your ears get less and less sensitive as exposure goes by.
