Jonas is the boss

[@AdenFoyer]

Mesto ❤️❤️

[@soundmasters_youtube]

You're the boss :D

[@red7332]

Mesto my boy🔥🔥

[@djri2984]

After this video Mestos songs will sound even more better.

[@arvind28]

Hey mesto u here🙌🙌

[@nocturnal7345]

8:21 Funniest transition ever; caught me off guard. XD

[@lovenangelo5415]

Do you use Maximus in your Mastering? Hahahah

[@nocturnal7345]

Soundsof Eleven I've heard that joke many, MANY times. XD

[@NEMESISMusicOfficial]

I got a dominos ad 😂

[@LiMCRiMZ]

Holy snap he said it so naturally I didn't even hear it until I saw this comment. That's some insane subliminal messaging 😂

[@u4ikmusic229]

Very smooth with it lol

[@AdenFoyer]

I'll pick out three comments that I'll give a free mastering to & also highlight the comment in the next video, ask me anything 🎉🎉

[@julianbates]

Ooh

[@marioferre6253]

Wohoo, free mastering!! Thank you for the chance

[@Hypagon]

Thanks for always making my mondays better with your videos :)

[@chrisdahlberg51]

Yaaaaaaas, that´s so amazing! 😎

[@fredericyearedstoa2446]

I live in norway, oslo. I have a small familiy of three, that is included me. i havn't so much time but i need mastering for a song i think is great to maybe get me some money. jeg håper du ser dette og jeg har gjort klar mixen for lengst :)

[@Crunkz]

8:20 hahaha

[@AdenFoyer]

Very important & underlooked aspect of mastering!

[@arutama]

The most important step to do, lmao

[@evocky6763]

I was mixing, listening on my monitors and I went to my earbuds and it sounded way different! Make sure to check on different systems as Jonas said!

[@AdenFoyer]

Niice, its very important!

[@kssthmn]

i think it's also nice to mention some psychology tricks with EQ. I know it was a basic video but here's for some intermediate guys. you'll find (especially in a lot of dubstep/melodic dubstep), boosting around 3.5-8kHz a dB or 2, can help make your track seem 'louder'. why? around that area is a naturally 'annoying' (i prefer the term sensitive) range of frequencies to the human ear, apparently baby screams and cries are around that area. be careful though!! this is easily overdone because of how sensitive that frequency range is, and can make your track just sound piercing. but it can really help brighten up the track and give a super 'loud' master

[@razdrey8909]

01:42 “Having bing” My favorite Chinese producer

[@thelist6978]

im in china ...where can i find 'Bing'

[@barz.mp3]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@ryanfrost1761]

Ive only been producing for 4 months and after watching this its really going to help on an future house track I have in the works! Thanks for keeping it so straight forward and informative at the same time!

[@AdenFoyer]

[@sinwithsebastian]

i love that you don´t cut out every little mistake - and breathing like other youtubers - i enjoy your channel

[@yoiboi8515]

Your channel is a brilliant source of information for beginner and intermediate producers. Thanks, this helped a lot.

[@Skrenja]

Your channel is a hidden gem. Way better than the rest of these charlatan producers youtube is flooded with.

[@elect9601]

Jonas, you are amazing at explaining everything in such a simple way making it super easy to understand! I'm working on getting my mixing down and I love all the small tricks you explain in your track creation videos. They make a small but important twist. Looking forward to your next video!

[@idkwho1719]

Love your studio 😭 it's an art itself.

[@alanvx9272]

it’s all ikea lmao

[@justdejf]

I just so love your studio design. I think we are two people of the same taste because it looks perfect to me.

[@bwretrocords]

This is pure gold man !!! I've been trying to learn mastering for a very long time and it always confused me a lot. Thank you for breaking it simple. ♥️

[@Jaycayo]

8:21 transition was crazy! 😏

[@matheusferreira.youtube]

This is pretty much the BEST tut on Mastering, not only this but all your videos!

[@elionohra568]

Omg yess I wish that every producer was like you, you make music and make people enjoy it and you care about other producers and teach them so you have a connection with the audience and that's why I love your songs and learn more in every video

[@AdenFoyer]

Wow I appreciate that so much

[@arnelis513]

Great video, Jonas! Everybody is talking about checking a mix on other speakers, in the car and so on. And recently I discovered that altough my mix sounds very clean on my gear it can sound too much in your face on airpods for example. So my point is that fat basslines and punchy drums are good and pretty, sometimes you can push it a little too much because earbuds tends to have narrow soundstage

[@VARGENTA]

Love these vlogs!

[@AdenFoyer]

[@Andrreo]

You’re tutorials and walkthroughs are so freaking good and on point, wish you could stick to this kind of videos forever!! It will be truly amazing if i would get a master from you

[@AdenFoyer]

Thankyou

[@MKL_Music]

What's your best mixing tip? How to know if sound needs compression? How to know if your samples are pro-sounding? Do you have days with lack of motivation (how often)? Love your vids, keep up the great work! Cant wait for Blackbird btw

[@AdenFoyer]

[@mackenziecollins318]

I have introduced your channel to all my friends who us fl, it has changed my ability drastically, than you so much

[@ema6897]

I fell in love with your studio

[@YippieKaey]

Im not the biggest EDM fan out there, but im drooling over your studio design. You´re a lucky man:)

[@jrogofficial]

Simple and transparent guide with very good info! I find "Unity gain monitoring" in the Invisible Limiter to be a very handy tool to objectively hear how much gain is too much. As an added bonus, once you dial the gain setting in, then turn the unity off, it will be a lot louder! 😀

[@domwujek8900]

Your vids very informative Im gonna dig this channel. You have a good balance of attention to detail and going straight to the point. Well done man!

[@MattySagz]

So many gems. Could stop the video after watching 3 minutes and still leave with more info than so many other tuts. GJ

[@zerka250]

For next weeks Q&A: Have you ever collabed with someone you regret or don't want to ever again? Love your music and vids keep up!

[@AdenFoyer]

Damn thats a harsh question hahaha! Thanks

[@pulsetronica8358]

This is so amazing. The one and only video that correctly taught me what mastering is 😊. Thank you Jonas

[@Reav.]

I've subscribed to this channel a few days ago, for now it's a "little" channel but it looks so good, and the videos have a really good appearance, I'm sure that this will grow quickly😝

[@mobbelmo]

Q & A: 1. Did you suffer from mental illness like Depression and if so, how do you overcome it? I noticed that this is an up and coming problem in the Music Business. 2. Whats your dream collaboration? (Not EDM!) Thank you for everything Jonas, learned a lot today.

[@AdenFoyer]

Interesting question man!!

[@mobbelmo]

@@AdenFoyer appreciate it! could really use a Jonas Aden Master right now haha

[@xer5481]

My question: which is the most important error you've done in the past that makes you think "i was doing bad mixes because of that"?

[@kingbingbong1920]

one thing i remember was mixing the kick too loudly thinking it was good because it “hit hard.” balance your kicks because loudness doesn’t equal a quality mix.

[@-YX9]

@@kingbingbong1920 thankss

[@ClebinMusic]

Yes, and compress the kick to balance it so it still hits harder but with less volume peaks but don't over compress ofc

[@-YX9]

@@ClebinMusic what plugins do I compressed it with?

[@miscellaneous1276]

Disable the limiter from the Master! And make sure your mix is peaking at -6

[@MindofMagick]

Yeah... Nice way to toss in the subscribe request. You got me, definitely subscribed. Awesome lesson. I actually learned something.

[@jdstarek]

8:20. Well played, Jonas, well played.

[@ldantes]

i listen to i dont speak french adieu almost every couple of hours. the sound design is crazy and I've used your sample packs to make a few bangers too! would love to discuss anything around production with you!!

[@andreimihai5185]

hey man, great video as always! my question for you is : will you do a video explaining a bit how sound design works and how to do it, or at least give us an idea how you do it in your tracks? Thank you again for doing these videos!

[@sircraftguymusic]

Thanks so much for this bro it really helped

[@normentmusic2833]

QnA question: Do you make your own kicks, claps, percussions ect? or do you mostly use samplepacks?

[@dyzoware7364]

Aden's mastering is next level

[@arissiraarisq7011]

3:14 Can someone explain me what to use when Jonas says : "When I start a new project [...] I have something that increases the volume, like 10dB on the master so that I automatically mix lower". I want to do the same thing, should I use a limiter or anything else ? (maybe a plug?)

[@iAnony]

I believe he uses the invisible limiter to increase the volume ~10db.

[@JoelAar]

Q&A Question: When mixing your tracks, is there any specific tool you use in all your tracks which really helps make the mix solid and clean it up? For example, I know a few artists who use OTT a lot throughout to help clean up their mix

[@dhruvansht]

Starting with a brickwall limiter sounds to take away the peaks. super stocked to use it in my next track, thank you so much !! :*

[@AdenFoyer]

Much love man

[@JACKSWAN]

Great tutorial! very informative! Keep it up :)

[@auxthenticjoshhendrikz]

The next step - Subscribe to this channel and like the video 😂😂 thanks so much for the walkthrough man, that really helped 🤘 Can you maybe explain at what levels you mix each element of your productions - so like the kick is the loudest and then the bass etc. :)

[@musqitonebeats2129]

I did that step, hopefully I'll get better mix now lol

[@AdenFoyer]

Appreciated!

[@rasmushenriksson3258]

This helped me a lot! I'm about to master my first track with vocals! :)

[@by_antony]

Great video, Jonas. You invited questions from the start. My question is how do you know which elements of a track should be 'compressed', which elements should be 'widened', 'maximised' etc? I can see these mastering effects in my DAW, but I am inteterested to learn from you which elements of a track need which 'effects'?

[@sfgmusic1196]

Best teacher ever... :)

[@snowjade]

3:19 is actually genius! i mix way to loud and that would solve the problem

[@sodginseng2652]

Thankyou so much for sharing Jonas 🙏🏻

[@reallokki]

Just to be safe with my mix i subscribed ,liked the video and just keep watching the mastering :D

[@HansJrgenAssmann]

First and foremost, thank you for a thorough mastering walk-trough. Q: - Would you recommend mastering with a multiband compressor, e.g. the compressor on Ozone iZotope 5? - Why didn't you normalize the track prior to the mastering? Cheers from Kristiansand! Oh, and I have a country/folk/house-ish track I'd really want you to master🙌🙌🙌

[@AdenFoyer]

Why would I normalize the track? :o

[@wearethehboysvinesindia5988]

How you made melodys are best and energetic i like it.

[@AdenFoyer]

Appreciate it !!

[@christianuvaag9403]

Love this

[@thefootballfanaccount]

I've been using online mastering services on all my tracks now and have found that the masters either come out too quite or loud and distorted. I've found this tutorial just so helpful as I really want to start mastering my own tracks but find mastering quite intimidating! But this video has really helped! As a producer who is just starting out mastering, what is a common fault beginners do (maybe from your own experience) which is easily avoidable?

[@AdenFoyer]

Thats awesome to hear

I subscribed to the channel and liked the video, and instantly all my tracks gained a high quality EQ

[@mikesaintjulesmusic]

Nice techniques here. I will give this a go. Interesting about using two limiters. Essentially one on the channel where the track is, and then the one on the master to push the input. I didn't see the master fader go up at the end to really hear the result, but I assume that's what you'd do obviously. The volume scooping out just before the drop is also a good idea. Around -3db would be good in the automation. I will try this for sure.
