I DO NOT CLAIM TO BE “DOING IT RIGHT”…
This is how I do things, and I do work on a professional level (meaning I make actual $ $ $ ). If this is “wrong” according to your college/highschool music teacher I don’t really care. There’s no wrong way to mix or master music, as long as it sounds good then why does it matter how it’s done?
If you want to hear the unmixed vs mixed version of this track you can jump from unmixed at: 4:05 to mixed at 21:05 .

These tips for Mixing and Mastering will
work with any DAW, just not FL Studio 10.
All you have to do is add your sounds to
whatever mixer track you have for your
DAW and use your DAW’s parametric
EQ and bam! You can do it there too.
Also, I know this tutorial is crazy long and
I know I get carried away when talking.
So I apologize in advance lol. I hope this
helps out a few of you guys and I hope
you enjoyed watching this.

July 10, 2015 at 3:37 pmI would have just bussed it instead of duplicating the track and maybe automated some de-essing.?

July 10, 2015 at 3:55 pmWhat? You just crank up that make up gain without even listening first? Kids… don't do this at home!

July 10, 2015 at 4:20 pmI don't know about logic because I do not use logic, but I have my ProTools Mbox on a Windows XP laptop and it has been working fine for a large number of years. Good luck.

July 10, 2015 at 7:57 pmThanks for the video Im guessing youd have to put a de esser on this duplicate track as well

July 10, 2015 at 8:02 pmlol agreed
@offbeatBryce, actually, but duplicating a track, you amplify the vocals by its absolute square. However, the reason its not amplified as much is because he Eq'd out some of the wave-forms.
Honestly, if you want a fuller sound, duplicate your vocals, and add delays on it (4 -11 ms delays) and pan them hard left and hard right, which creates phasing. It gives you the same result as this but 10x better.

July 10, 2015 at 8:32 pmlol yo he pushed his highs up so much that when he masters it, he wont have no room for adjustments without effecting the whole track

July 10, 2015 at 9:30 pmMy question is whether pro tools, or pro logic, works with Windows XP.

July 11, 2015 at 3:58 amWhen I do my levels I use the metronome as a reference ?
Tim Hautala
July 11, 2015 at 4:38 amHard to mix when the melo is crap… sorry. And cut off all low freq in snares and hihats, makes it cleaner. I never start with the limiter because its makes it harder to mix, add the limiter when you master the track. But a good beginner vid!
Peace!?

July 11, 2015 at 5:32 amlow pass filter instead of 2 eq's :-)?
Robert Cece
July 11, 2015 at 5:39 amYou are the furthest thing from "professional" cause this sounds like a distorted mess of shit.?
tranceemerson
July 11, 2015 at 5:54 amif you really want to get a good mix, kill the limiter for now, the trick to getting that polished sound is "headroom" this is the amount of volume that the mix has before clipping can occur. a limiter is managed clipping, so if you have that limiter, you'll just make your headroom even lower.?

July 11, 2015 at 6:49 amYou did a great job on this video. I apologize for posting this here but it's impossible for a new DJ to build an audience on youtube especially after the new commenting system. I don't mean to spam. I just want to tell you my story. Music composition is my life. I always wanted to become a musician. I created many songs and I am very close to publishing my first recording. After losing countless hours with inadequate programs I finally found the best program for beat creation ever. I posted a link to this program on my channel. go check it out.?
