Great vid!!!!! Thank you for sharing!

I've returned after a year to say I agree with Ahee, and this tip was one of the best ive got from any tutorial or teacher. shoutout ahee

[@odemimusic]

same here!

[@Awthentik]

I've been mixing hiphop records for almost 20 years. Usually all the advice on youtube is very generic. This video was everything and some more! Salute and Thank you for all the information in this.

[@unelias2592]

My favorite ableton tutorials right here. I can see that this is your passion and it is very inspiring. Thank you.

[@squidcatbass]

You're right, that last skrillex routing tutorial did help a lot. I've been referencing and using that technique and it helped my music significantly. This tutorial was also awesome. Knowing about that gap to help create separation and clarity is key. I wish I was shown this 10 years ago lol.

[@OfficialAHEE]

Same man, that's why I'm sharing this now. :) Maybe share with any producer friends, I want to push the culture forward.

Question: to achieve this space in the spetrum is best to eq it all out on individual tracks/instruments or can it just be carved out at the end on the master? Thanks

[@Gr1dSh7ftR]

whoah, this is gold bro! I was noticing the other day that dipping the eq between 100-300hz range on my master, as well as in certain individual tracks was adding clarity and punch. After watching your video here it really put some things into perspective! I'm going to be aiming for this curve in my mixes now. Thanks for adding another missing piece to the puzzle for me!

[@deafconmediaZA]

One of the most helpful tutorials I have ever come across. Thank you so much.

[@shogunai]

Rms stand for "root mean square".

[@bpawansindhe992]

lol... ik

[@mrSAUCIES]

yes! Was about to comment this myself lol. It is quite literally, the "root" of the "mean square". The "mean square" is the mean (average) of the data points after they are individually squared. The RMS is the square root of that value.

[@JohannesNielsen]

Thanks so very much this is exactly what I needed, I am doing a Diploma of Electronic Music Production and I was asking the Teachers about exactly this

[@fortknightpredilluvian2008]

always enjoy the ahee tutorials, glad you decided to do more

[@randyeyre5909]

Such a helpful tool for getting cleaner mixes!! Very useful information for any serious producers, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!

[@laucaus]

This just took my entire world and leveled up the production game for me. Thank you

[@FreeTheMinutes]

Seriously helpful .. just fixed an old track I couldn't figure out what the problem was in the first drop, appreciated 🙌

[@rosscoyne01]

Dude! Your walkthrough and explanation is so helpful. Thank you so much.

[@EvanJordon]

This video has helped me SO much. Not sure where I would be without this insight. I love you man and I love your tunes!

[@LumeoEdits]

AHEEEEE!!! Just listened to your most fantastic EP 'Spellbound', the production level is so so so so high, love 'Late Night Beats'!! Holy moly it makes my face melt :) Great work man :D

[@vedanthashok201]

I'm literally in the middle of a mixing block. I will most definitely be trying this!

[@MirinDesuyon]

I've been using span for a while to see what I'm lacking or what frequencies are way too much in my mix, so it's nice to know that I was on the right track so far, thanks for the tutorial!

[@user-hj5xy4xi6k]

My mixing has greatly improved after watching this video. Thank you so much!

[@buzzpsy]

Awesome brother thanks for the help, this is the most crucial step which is required after a mix is done, I always wondered how to use span to it's fullest and using your tips reminded me that my mix is tight, thanks a lot :D

[@twoHRdrive]

this is a really cool way to show and talk about mixing. thanks for the upload

[@mathmatikslarson9559]

Looking forward to incorporating this into future tracks! Thanks!

Yeooooo, dope video AHEE! Good to meet you in Baltimore this past weekend my G!

Really love your style of music, awesome!! Some great native / tribal sounds! Thanks for the explanation!

[@blvcksmith2548]

This is still awesome! Appreciate you man!

[@Hatewine]

Hey man! found your video 2 days ago by accident. I wondered if my latest track maybe had some "mud" between the 200-300 range, and it had! so i literraly just pulled up a eq on my master and pulled down these frequencies and to match the sub level, i boosted the highs... & turns out.. THAT MAKES THE WHOLE TRACK SOUND SO MUCH BETTER?! basically i'm really gratefull that i still go on youtube to learn, and find people like you, that really know some good shit! Thanks for this

[@resofactor]

Didn't realize SPAN was that useful in end production and overall mix evaluation. Was mainly using SPAN for getting Kick and Bass in the right places. Thanks man. Good tips.

[@subhunter1286]

Thanks for this! I have been using your racks for a while and one of my mentors pointed me towards this video, super helpful.

[@dollabill5756]

This was SUPER helpful dude! Instant results using Span. Thank you for the tips!

Aye man, thanks a lot for the vid, span just took my mixes to a higher level! Appreciate ya!🤘🏻

[@Jaketsx45]

I'm a newbie at mastering and this is the most helpful information I've received

[@milhouse777]

Awesome man, thanks for all those pro insights

[@Astroreign]

Thanks so much for this video man. I've been fed a lot of misinformation over the years by producers who think they know everything and "your frequency spectrum should pretty much be a flat line from left to right" was something I believed up until now. This is a game changer cos I've always struggled with mixing mids.

[@bilutap]

why the hell should it be linear if the rumor is not linear

[@olumor2303]

You made my 15 years old hobby become a possible dream carreer, thank you!

[@jpegss9950]

Thanks dude.. Love your tutorials. Legend!

[@yujadubstep]

Dude I sat next to you at the Getter and Dodge Q&A seminar! I remember talking to you about how Getter and Ghastly migh have made that pan sound in 666 lol.

[@OfficialAHEE]

yuja. I remember that 👽🙌

[@CayenneTravels]

A lot of these separations and dips are done with multiband compressors, and turning up or down different ranges. In some of these you can basicslly see what frequencies the multiband cross overs were set to.

[@TMechMusic]

Well described man, nailed how to analyse things using SPAN!

[@Robert_11911]

Your EP sounds good AHEE! Nicely done.

[@nerdnasty6628]

First vid I've seen of yours. Very well said. Also your tracks are fire. Keep it up.

[@dayzrustream]

Thank you so much for sharing this video! I've been told so many times that a spectre should more resemble a pink noise spectre, but that could be wrong as we can see. Thanks for pointing out all that tips, it's been like an insight to me. (The first great advise for me was "use SPAN" before, but that was just a starting point.)

[@maxwellcrespo939]

This helped me soooo much! Thank you!!

[@apoplexiamusic]

This tutorial is actually solid! I’ve observed what Span was showing me for 2 of my best sounding tracks and they were both showing a similar curve with the subs and highs being at a comparable level, a separation between the sub and the kick’s frequency ranges (the kick being closer to 80 Hz) and the dip for me occurs between 300 to 600 Hz before going back up. I make neuro-ish DnB so my tracks do have the low mids a bit higher and the dip occurring in the higher mids

[@ruprechtsrubberglove]

Thank you for trying this demo

[@gahdzuwkz6647]

Nice video! Great tips, you’re very good at following the edm formulas for the different dance music genres

[@ericrigo2127]

Very helpful man! Thanks for this!

[@overtonesnteatime198]

this is incredibly useful and also technically basic from a fundamental standpoint.... most if not everyone involved in sound design and engineering should be aware of LUFS. Thanks Ahee!

this is gold. thank you for that!

[@m_aminoracousticmusic6312]

Clear explanations, thanks🙏🏼

[@bootyprogram]

just wanted to swing by 2 years later and say this is for me personally the single most helpful video I've seen on making electronic music. So much of what is hard about starting, at least for me, was the like 'yeah this sounds not half bad in my poorly acoustically treated living room, but i bet it sounds TERRIBLE in a club'. this just clears up the mystery. im a better visual learner and since i watched this a year ago ive been using SPAN with every song i buy. sometimes i sit down and just play a bunch of songs i like in ableton at -6db and watch the SPAN, its literally almost a hobby for me lmao. anyways, thx man, great vid/great advice

[@Bittamin]

Finally got span and I can see I have some work to do lol

[@indaskyes]

This is rad as hell, thank you!

Yeah, SPAN is the best. It was the only plugin that shows LUFS that worked on my 15-20 year old + master rig. This was very helpful, I've been using it for about 5-6 weeks now, so it showes me alot of those things I have been wondering how to do since I first got it. You'r music is awesome. Stay awesome :D

[@audiowav3203]

Can’t imagine how screwed some of my mixes will sound in club systems 😂 thanks for the tips man I appreciate the time u put into your videos!

[@HowardCharlesUK]

I watch the ableton eq8 frequency all the time, and I look at a couple of other analysers, so I thought that I was comfortable with them already - but this is so much more precise! I'll definitely be using this technique on everything I do, and i'm worried about checking my previous mixes with this system 😂

[@panitabeats]

You're a beast dude, thanks for this tips

[@goblinfarts]

I love your new album!

[@MikeDeanOfficials]

Just had a listen, sounds great.

[@3gypt1an]

A reason for big separation between lows and mid ranges in EDM is so Dj’s can mix out the bass end easily on their boards and rest of track sounds same and allows for smooth transitions and extended blending of tracks. I’ve heard about that but never seen it presented graphically like this. Awesome vid! Oh and RMS == root mean square .. not sum 🤓 RMS .. root mean square

[@AnymMusic]

you really shouldn't mixed based on what helps a DJ.

[@GJLCreativeStudios]

@@AnymMusic I dunno. DJs are who help you get your songs into the clubs
