I forgot to mention if you have a stereo bass that collapses badly to mono, remaking into stereo with any of these methods still doesn't improve the mono, instead you can use a utility plugin to playback only the left or right side as the middle instead of the mono sum , that is a usually a big improvement, and then you can re-stereo it I also totally forgot Steve Duda (Xfer) made a free dimension expander plugin, I had already figured it out by that point and have just been in the habit of using a delay to do it. You can just go grab that instead. At least you know how it works now though!

I just came back from Hard Summer 2024. While I think I have a pretty diverse taste in music, I’m mainly a Hip-Hop/Rap head. Hearing so much House music in two days while dancing nonstop has literally made me realize how sick the House genre is. Been producing, mixing, and mastering my own music for 4 years now and you were the first channel I came across when I looked up tutorials on House (cause at this point I’m addicted lol). I gotta say, I feel lucky AF to be listening to your years of knowledge and experience. I’m remixing all my old songs into house mixes and it’s about to be so much fun cause of you. Thank you!

Regarding panning, I just don't tbh. It's a personal choice but for anything essential to the groove I don't pan for the reason that I don't want people on one side of the club getting a different thing to those on the other. If I have lots of backing vocal layers I usually pan those across the spectrum. For the rest I usually just let stereo things be stereo and that's where the track gets its width from. As for where stuff "belongs" , that's up to you, Do what feels good to you! There's no rules in art (although most might tell you to keep the kick and bass down the middle haha)

4:26 one thing to note about the phase shift comment... you're using a 24db per octave slope on your highpass! This creates two points of 180° phase shift! One of those points occurs ABOVE the cutoff, so that filter is actually rearranging the phase quite a bit! Not that it matters. The phase relationship of a bass sound is not as predictable as "phase shift bad". Phase shift is bad, but ONLY if the phase has been carefully tuned to maximize headroom previously. Phase shift is also bad if you saturate your bass before you use the filter. It's simple enough to find a good phase relationship between your bass fundamental and its overtones. Just buss the synths, just tweak the phase of the sub, while inspecting the waveform through an oscilloscope, until the peaks are minimized. The reason it's a good idea to separate sub-bass instruments SPECIFICALLY is because when the notes combine, they can cause really long cancellations. Its the same phenomenon as dissonant notes creating "beating", except low frequencies' beating sounds way more noticeable.

20:02 quick correction. Sample rate reduction doesn't cause any ringing! When you just reduce the sample rate to introduce aliasing (which is those higher, metallic tones), it doesn't have any effect on the timing or length of the tones. It simply shifts the higher frequencies (already present in the signal) around the spectrum, similarly to frequency shifters. Still a good tip to use the transient shaper & gate on the aliased harmonics. It sounds unnatural for these high frequencies to sustain so long, because in nature, high frequencies decay faster. So this technique reintroduces some natural sound.

I’ve been loving watching your videos. Your commentary makes them so valuable! Super impressive how you clearly explain what and why you’re doing things. To clarify your comment about distortions and phase, I’m guessing you’re only talking about distortions that apply some type of eq/filtering under the hood? Simple distortion processes like soft/hard clipping or any sort of waveshaping shouldn’t affect phase whatsoever, yes? Distortions that don’t apply colouring via filtering should be A-ok to mix in parallel, I believe.

Sure, for a live bass guitar player, but what is there to compress in edm? Most bases produced by a synth don't have any dynamics to compress at all.

I find most who think the compression is helping are usually just getting fooled by the fact it's simply been made louder by the make up gain.

Hey B! Regarding stereo imaging of bass, I have a (probably) noobie question. Let's say you have a bass top layer that is pretty wide and sounds great in stereo, but sounds weak in mono. However, upon checking for phase issues, you find there there are none at all. What would be your solution in a situation like this? A) Use a mid-EQ to boost centre frequencies (this makes it a little muddier!) B) Use an imager to simply reduce stereo (but this will come at the cost of making it sound less nice when playing in stereo) C) Its a top layer bass (with barely any frequencies below 100Hz) - there are definitely no phase issues! If there are no phase issues, then it shouldn't sound "weaker" in mono - you're overthinking! Little MCQ for ya! Many thanks from Canada 🍻

@@Bthelick The bass in question is a Serum bass roll/pluck with a soft HPF (Ableton EQ8) at 147Hz (so not too many low and likely phase-cancelling frequencies). It is a pretty wide sound, generally speaking. What I did to check for phase issues is solo only the bass roll + my sub, pan one all the way to the left, and pan the other all the way to the right, then observe SPAN's correlometer. It hovers at around negative 0.20 to positive 0.10 when I do this. This indicates no phase issues right? My method could be wrong - you know best! I also repeated this for my kicks, toms, and any other instruments that produce low frequencies (and compared them to my bass rolls). Same results - more or less hover around 0 in the correlometer. The only thing I can think of that may be causing phase issues is the Serum sound (bass roll) itself, since I have a lot of delay and reverb on this sound. But I can't pan/solo Serum's reverb effect or delay effect to test it this way. Here, I rely on keeping the bass roll as is (no panning), and observing SPAN's correlometer - it hovers at around 0.50 to 1.00. Is this indicative of phase issues? In your opinion, what is the best way to look for phase issues? Am I doing it wrong? Thanks again!

19:07 to clarify: distortion ITSELF does not destroy phase relationships. When the plugins have their own mix knob, they just blend in the regular dry signal. However, if a plugin has OVERSAMPLING, then that's what destroys phase relationships. The plugins blend the parallel signal before the downsampling step, which is the part that causes phase shift. If your distortion plugin avoids oversampling, it will be OK to use for parallel distortion. It will produce exactly zero unintended consequences. Most plugins let you have your cake and eat it too, though. Mix knobs that work with oversampling are fairly common in well-built plugins. Interesting, distortion itself actually changes no existing phase relationships. It adds new harmonics, whose phase relationships are perfectly tuned to decrease peak levels. Distortion is the best louder-maker tool available, even in parallel!
@Bthelick
@Bthelick 9 ай бұрын
Yes. But even with no oversampling many processors use eqs / crossovers and other tools pre/post to shape the distortion behavior, and not always in a clean pre/post emphasis relationship. For those new to this I just find it easier to tell them to steer clear unless the drive itself has a mix parameter (although I've heard of few of those get it wrong too) because they won't have the ears to spot the comb filtering. Thanks for the clarifications though 👊

Excellent tutorial as always, 10/10! Simple question, if you have a saw wave bassline, for sub would you EQ the bottom end or any advantage in using a specific sine wave 'sub' patch?

Eq on the low end of bass usually only works if the bass is only playing 1 note. Otherwise when the bass part changes note the eq will be in the wrong place. Then you just end up with uneven bass frequencies with some notes being louder than others. The sub gives you proper control of both sidechain/envelope and lets you keep a solid bass end by being even across different notes.

@@Bthelick Ah I see, I watched again and see now 'sub-separation' is a separate sine wave track, not splitting the same bass into 2 parts with EQ. Thanks for clarification, much appreciated!

Eq can be ok , in higher frequencies, and very much depends what's in the sound already and what part it is playing. . Eq on the low frequencies can only really work if the bass is on 1 note, otherwise as soon as the bass moves note the eq is no longer in the correct place, and you just end up with some notes louder than others.

@@Bthelick Yeah, i kind of "figured out" that bass parts packed with notes must be eq'd veeeery carefully. And also "kind of" coming to terms with changing bass or kick or whatever entirely for the sake of track working better. Can't eq the ego though yet)

I would like to add one interesting detail. Before you can navigate the pink noise on the spectrum analyzer, it must be properly configured. The analyzers have a Slope parameter that allows you to rotate the spectrum. And it must be adjusted so that pink noise shows a flat horizontal line. This is due to the fact that in pink noise all frequencies with the same time fall into our "zone of attention". And by adjusting the analyzer in such a way that the noise is horizontal, we make the analyzer work as our "zone of attention". What will be the correct display of the operation of frequencies. That is, we will see them as they are read by our perception. Meld's analyzer works like this by default, by the way. After such manipulations, you can already turn the noise itself, balancing between high and low frequencies to our taste using the Tilt filter in any good equalizer, be it Pro Q or Kirchoff. And as always. Great video!

Thank you! I thought white noise was supposed to measure flat? I have the slope on my Span set to 0 for that. Well that and to be it always looked more like what I was hearing.

@@Bthelick It's quite interesting that you use white noise. For my taste, it sounds quite aggressive in the upper frequencies. And pink is very close to all sounds in nature. It is enough to go outside in this wonderful summer and listen to how the leaves rustle with the wind, and you will find that everything is suitable for pink noise. In general, this gives a more matte sound. But in your case, a very good technique would be to raise the upper frequencies on pink noise, which will sound the most pleasant.

@@young_neal5947 I agree, that's why I used it, pink is much closer to a natural distribution. I meant using white noise to calibrate a meter only. Because that resulting slope on sound is how I perceive it irl , in a good room with flat calibrated subs I perceive more bass at equal level naturally, probably because bass vibrates the body too.

It's the top 6 tech house bass video. I'm basically saying if you have control over the sound design then you don't need much more than getting the sound right at source (in the context of your drums) plus what I show here.
