This is such a banger dude. Simple but full with details :D

[@4r1k87]

Didnt Expect you here :D or :-D

[@notthecreator_ty]

Something to note at 4:00 On the mixer he has all of his effects First, Then he has his EQs to get rid of Bad frequencies, that some effects may add. So when adding effects sometimes don't EQ until after you've added them. And I'm guessing the reason the reverb is after the EQs is to make sure the reverb doesn't get effected by the EQs and Effects.

[@synchronic_]

its so that it amplifies the eq'ed sound do it doesn't reverb bad frequencies. don't be afraid to put eq's before FX because sometimes you get completely different tones with distortion and stuff if you eq before the effect

[@notthecreator_ty]

@@synchronic_ I know you can put EQ's first, just saying what he did for that sound. Not everything.

[@TRNQUL]

If you're going to put a compressor on the sound, it's better to put a subtractive EQ first so the compressor doesn't trigger from the bad frequencies (lose the sub frequencies in a lead that you're anyway going to cut out). Then you can put your FX and a final EQ at the end to clean up the sound or as an additive EQ

[@sebg2193]

You would EQ before FX if you want to remove frequencies that you don't want the FX to bring out. EQ after fx to remove the unwanted frequencies fx/plugins have created. just remember that if you don't EQ some nasty frequencies out before you put a bunch of FX on them, those nasty frequencies will be even louder and harder to EQ out afterwards. Saturation/Distortion type stuff is nice before EQ because those actually add harmonics, so they kinda hide the unwanted frequencies or wash them out.

[@diskwalker]

No one: The whole comment section: WHAT THE HECK HE’S USING FL 20 MESTO UPGRADED TO FL 20 LETS PARTY

First time watching mesto tutorial in premiere!! So excited!!

[@mackmiller9109]

Me too bro .its great 😍😘🔥🔥

[@ricardodelgadoarce6725]

I just met MESTO and with this song now is one of my favourites. I love the lyrics, the intro, the instrumental all is awesome

[@petesummersmusic]

incredible!! this was an amazing walkthrough, thanks so much Mesto!

[@xenofi1128]

He looks like Captain America before transformation

[@avormusic]

This is very useful for me as an amateur producer. To see how the whole track is built and the individual parts that I wouldn't even think of are there. Please more videos like this and a lot of respect for your great work. Thanks!!!

[@thesandyboys_]

That was great! One of my favorite tracks that has come out in the past few months and I was very curious how you made it. Telephone effect is super cool. Great job Melle !

[@colephillips9866]

Love it man! I love these kinds of videos and I hope you make some more like this in the future!

[@riverkelly3025]

thanks brother ! this video helped me so much ! been looking for some good videos like this of how pros get their stuff so clean and especially needed help with the bass !

[@anselxarch]

Thanks for deconstructing the song man

I love the vocal chops

[@Daniel-ji5mq]

[@skeleticmusic]

loved the track so much, surely on of your best 🔥 Keep doing these tutorials ❤

[@1eonard931]

I have installed fl studio 20 days before. And i keep on discovering sounds, plugins and preset. Really impressed with your music, and i felt like , wow, how could it be. I play piano for almost eleven years and i still can't make a song. I really hope one day i can be a professional Producer like u, Mesto. Lastly, hope you stay safe too and i hope to listen to more of your music in the future.

[@creexmusic]

Awesome to see your workflow 🔥😀 Love this track!!

[@castledave]

[@bgimusic]

I like the way you manipulated the vocal of yours with all the cool effects!

[@PuppiesVideosCompilation]

11:20 how do you sidechain the kick to the bass when the kick is playing that way (11:20) instead every click? i usually do this with the fruity limiter but doesn't work that well any other tricks?

[@Wizard-es7ym]

I use fruity Wave shaper to sidechane sometimes

This is a really nice song. Today , I listened it 5 times and it gives all those October autumn kinda vibes to me!😂 This is really nice organised project, and the variety of things,sounds you use for different parts is a big learning thing for me! Keep making those great songs , Mesto, along with these track breakdowns! I really learned a lot from this, but more importantly I enjoyed more

[@CaptainStereo]

When your in the channel rack, if you hold control or command and left click you can solo a channel. Similarly when your in the arrangement, if you right click the switch on the track title, it'll solo that track!

[@maximilianpluckoldaccount2874]

Such an awesome track!!

[@synthelse2358]

This is amazing...Of course the song, but this tutorial as well ... To me, this is the definition of "less is more". Not because what you did is easy, but because to the listener it seems easy and catchy while complex stuff happen in the background (I don't know if I made my point ahah) And on top of that, a lot of stock plugins... Thanks Man, for posting this. Keep up with the great music you are making!!!

[@doolsonthebeat2149]

[@nergiik9316]

3:35 Thanks for sharing that, really! Yeah it can be embarrassing for you but... It is a good reminder for us, "bedroom producer", to not hesitate to use our own voice in our productions! With some effects (hello vocoder!), it can really make the tracks more professional and especially make the track more personnal 🙌
