If I may, if you're in drop D tuning, 73hz is the first harmonic. The actual root frequency of the low D is the octave below, so 36,72hz.
@amethystlegion Жыл бұрын
Was just about to comment on this. The lowest normal note on a 4-string bass, E1, is 41.2Hz. However, it's also true that most speakers people actually listen to music through have pretty serious frequency dropoff well above that (and many start to roll off around 100), so targeting the first harmonic is not necessarily a bad plan. Generally you'll want to HPF the bass away below about 30-40Hz anyway because the entire mix just accumulates so much mud down there, and bass is the worst offender there. And I say this as a bass player that loves my low end tone.

I find that this advice does get you some good results. But from my time working in studios, I'll offer some contradictory things. 1) The fewer EQ maneuvers you do, the less 'artificial' it will end up sounding. You say you rarely cut frequencies, but if you took a pretty wide Q band at about 500 or 600 Hz and dipped it, you'd end up with similar results that sound really smooth & organic. 2) My experience with pro engineers is that the fundamental frequencies of an instrument are almost never boosted, for several reasons. First of all, it's not interesting. Overtones are what convey the character of the instrument, not the fundamental. Secondly, it makes for more dramatic dynamic changes, forcing you to lean more on compression. You can make a bass sound really solid and warm with a boost at around 200-250 Hz. This also gives you a bass tone that shows up on small speakers. If you find that you have to boost the lowest bass frequencies of the lowest instrument in the band, you probably do not have a good recording. 3) For modern bass tones, please consider multi-band compression at recording time. There are quite a few compressors that will get this done for you, or you could mock it up yourself with EQ and filtering. I'm finding this to be a magic bullet for getting all the warmth AND all the presence I could ask for, and I don't have to work hard to get a good EQ out of it.

@d.s.9692 Жыл бұрын
@@zeclomal2265 Multi-band EQ can get done by basically splitting your signal into two paths - one is high-pass and the other is low-pass. You then perform compression on each path, and then mix them back together and EQ from there. Usually you'd want to compress them differently, because low frequencies and high frequencies have different dynamic characteristics. On the low side you can set a slower attack & longer release, but on the high side you would want it to be a bit snappier. Or maybe just compress the low path and leave the high one alone. Experiment with them. There are pedals that actually do this and they're fantastic - the TC Spectracomp and the EBS Multicomp are some good examples. The effect doesn't really jump out at you by itself, but it solves so many problems in a mix. A warning though: overusing this effect definitely does make it sound weirdly artificial.
@postman9699 Жыл бұрын
I find the biggest keys to great sound and minimal processing efforts come from a great performance executed on a great sounding instrument. All the dynamic processing you do after that to "fix it" means the performance and instrument were lacking. I should just be frosting the cake come mix time..or that's what the goal would be.

If a bass guitar was tuned down to D, the fundamentals of the low octave from D1 to D2 would range from 36hz to 73hz. (Which makes sense given that the 4th magic frequency is the range from 0 to 100hz.)

As soon as you said 1K I said NOPE! But that's the beauty of music - everyone has their own taste so I watched to the end. Like many bassists who commented here 800Hz "ish" is where I also boost. For me 700-800. The reasons are 1) 1K is the prime guitar area, and pop vocals live there too. You don't want to compete with those and if you do you'll have to boost so much the mix may be harsh. 2) Basically nothing else is at 700-800 so it fills a gap and that's the easiest area to get bass heard. 3) It's hitting more of the fundamentals or lower harmonics of the bass rather than the noise. 4) I personally like the sound. After 700-800, 1.5K is great - totally agree. But 4K for the upper limit. I'd say 5K. Many bass amps have tweeters and there's some nice air up there, as long as it doesn't class. Thanks for the video though. Great plugin! Well done!

I think there is more struggle. Most basses - espeically DI, but also Amp - has a build up in the range 100 Hz-150 Hz. You need to control that. Than there is the magic or strange frequency around 180Hz. A lot of live foh mixers boost that range. And indeed i can give the bass more fullness, but with a tendency to boxiness. It depends on how low and how loud the lowend of the guitars are. This range 100-200 Hz I found is the most struggling for bass, and also for guitars. And to make things worse, thats the range where the foundation note of the snare is.

While I kind of agree with you, EQ is not the end all. Yes, you start with just getting it to sound good, but there is a second layer. I use to hate distortion on bass, but I finally figured out how to make it work. So you add a second channel. Chop the high and low freq, so all you have left is midrange. Compress the snot out of it. The reason for this to twofold. First it controls the distortion and keeps it from getting raspy. Secondly, when you add it back in, it keeps the bass tonal definition and detail from getting lost, regardless of how inconsistent the player is. So once compressed, add distortion. You want a real meaty distortion, not raspy. Just enough to color the sound. Now add that channel back into the mix. This keeps the bass right in the pocket. You always can pick it out when you want to, but it never is distracting.

@Daveinet5 ай бұрын
@@rsmith9094 I may not have been clear. Use Parallel processing. In other words, you run two channels fed from the bass feed. First channel, you make it sound the best you can. The second channel, you high pass around 250 and low pass around 2.5K. This second channel is highly compressed and then fed through a round sounding harmonic distortion. Then this channel is lightly mixed in with the clean channel. Most of what you hear is the clean channel, with just a tiny bit more midrange so it stands up in the mix. Then depending on the song and what you are working with, you fade in the dirty channel, just to bring the tonal definition out. Most of what you hear is the clean channel, and then fading in the dirty channel as needed. The purpose of the high pass is to prevent the distortion from getting too dirty. The purpose of the low pass is to prevent it from getting raspy. But again, you are only adding a very small amount of the dirty channel back in, as you are only adding definition and detail, but it is not the primary sound one "thinks" they hear.

@@rsmith9094 Yes, I use high pass on the primary channel. Sorry if that was not clear under the statement of "just getting it to sound good" without specifics. I usually high pass around 40 to 50, depending on the instrument. The sound I am going for is to have bass fill out the pipe organ affect, with super deep foundational stuff. The whole rest to the mix rides on those very bottom low tones. The low "E" string is 41 Hz, why would you filter out the fundamental?? Typically you just adjust the high pass to whatever sounds good. Go as low as you can without it getting flubbery, depending on what your system is capable of. The real high pass belongs on the kick. This will tighten up the kick so it has a lot of punch in the gut, but doesn't get dirty, or flap in the breeze so to speak. Then bass has a notch cut, somewhere between 90-110 Hz, depending on the instrument and the room and system smoothness. Kick is for punch, bass is foundation. It defines the chord. Then link up the bass as an extension of the piano or electric guitar, depending who is playing what. Those deep frequencies end up being an extension of other instruments. Then the distortion, gives detail, when the playing is being artistic. Of course I did have this one guy I use to run perfectly flat. No EQ, no high pass, no distortion. His sound was dead on, coming straight out of the instrument. He also owned a recording studio, which may explain why.

So many mixer/producers are so psyched-out with compression, they forget EVERYTHING starts with EQ! Just about every effect can be created naturally - reverb, delay - yes, even compression. The tool that really is worth its weight in gold is having access to a good equalizer. That's what's required to give every sonic aspect of a mix its own "space", and to "carve" out the unwanted frequencies of each instrument. To be fair, yes, EQ can be tamed by mic choice - but that will only get you so far. Train your ears. That's my advice. Cheers!

You're correct, but he's right that the 2nd harmonic is the sweet spot for a bass guitar. Take a sine wave signal and listen to pure 40hz. You can get a free app for your phone. Your car speakers can barely reproduce that frequency. If you put all the power at 40hz, most playback systems will miss it. Probably the lowest freq a stock car stereo can reproduce powerfully is about 50hz. 40hz is weak and by 35hz, probably completely inaudible. PS. don't cheat and use a saw or triangle wave. That adds higher harmonics which masks the effect. Sine wave is a pure tone with no harmonic frequencies mixed in.

I see a lot of "don't be afraid to do big boosts" on this channel, which has helped my mixing a lot--but is EQing into a compressor part of how you get away with it? I got some advice early on that a good rule of thumb is to cut before compression and boost afterwards. What's your take on that? BTW, I would love to see a whole 20m video on "different ways you can use an 1176". It's the kind of compressor you see everywhere and on basically anything, but it definitely has the most arcane interface of the classics.

I’ll post a contrary opinion: if anything, youre gonna wanna hi pass the bass at the fundamental frequency of the kick drum so they don’t get in the way of each other. If you boost the fundamental you will most likely end up with an indistinct low end. Genre depending of course. But typically, you don’t want that much sub in a bass guitar

You've done a video on mixing bass. You've done a video on mixing the kick. Have you considered a video on mixing bass and kick, together?

Great vid, i will check out low controll plugin. Btw is the 14 day trial working 100%? Or with clip and pops?

Hey Jordan, it would be nice for you to respond to some of the comments here especially those that seem to give alternative views or different opinions from those you give in the video... For instance the drop D thing being 73hz but other commentators here say its 36hz ........ Other wise i find the channel very informative thanks for the good work.

Do you have the plugin for 10.9 osx? Haven't upgraded in years cause got tired of my gear not working but now there's so many new great plugins I'm thinking I'm gonna have to finally bite the bullet even though my three rigs work flawlessly haha! Kind of scary! Love the vids! You saved my ass on some toms right when I was about to give up and use samples cause they sounded so bad. No need for that after your tips. It was the last thing on the recent recording I did that didn't sound up to snuff. Can't thank you enough!

I did try this but am not really happy with what I ended up with. I don’t have your plugin though, so that probably made a difference. I did attempt using a multi band comp setting it for just the lows from 100hz and below and disabling the rest of the bands, and then using the wet/dry control to taste. It’s close but not close enough.

Might be your source track. This bass is recorded incredibly well. Or you’re just learning. :)
