Yo I remember asking you about how to mix 808 and now Im watching this amazing tutorial. I just wanted to say thank you man. I really appreciate it.

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Masih Khosravi haha thanks for watching!

[@DOLi0N]

This is by far the best tutorial on your channel (to me), thank you for posting

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Shoes_ Music thank you so much!

[@JanTnT]

wow, thx that's usefull, I'm working on my first Drumkits and that gives unlimited possibilities for creating 808s 🙏🏻

[@miltchamberlain6218]

@LifeStyleDidIt thank u bro I'm really trying to figure this 808 stuff out. I feel like I'm obsessed with 808 mixing cuz I just can't get mine to sit in the mix like this. Your drums sound good and thumpy, without being overbearing. Keep the gems comin🙏🏾

[@SXNDICATE]

WHAT IS GOOD YOU GUYS? ITS LIFESTYLE FROM LIFESTYLEDIDIT. *C A*

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Sharma 🤘😂

[@ClassEBeats]

Let’s get it🔥🔥🔥 thanks for this man😎 love these mixing videos

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

ClassE Beats thank you bro!

[@ClassEBeats]

LifeStyleDidIt thank you brother!💯🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@sandspider8961]

Lifestyle your an 808 scientist! Lots of greats tips! I think I would prefer to actually duplicate the 808 for the high end distortion tip, with sends its impossible to solo the actual track.

[@trevornataluk971]

Graham from RR says if you want to be successful you have to offer things to others to improve their work or career. Your tutorials are some of the best I’ve seen, and there’s lots of value here man, keep it up 🤙🏼

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Trevor Nataluk thank you so much! Graham taught me so much when I started, I love that dude

[@myoreluv]

Damn I just had the video on 1,25x because of a other video and I thought: yo what's wrong with his voice and why is his beat so trash... Well.

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

LMAO!

[@SpacedOutDoonie]

I was looking for this video since the first time I seen it but forgot some of the stuff. Shits top tier. I use this technique to level out my 808 to stay at a constant peak level. I just set it to the level that the first note peak is registered at and I also use the L1 limiter.

[@TheMattJames]

can you please explain why my 808s sound banging and distorted and nice at the start, but as the track goes on they become more quiet? I have compression and a compression side chain to the kick

[@vleindancan8480]

This a actually worked for me. Used this trick for my 'EARTH GOD' And it turned out better. Thanks

[@trillbans]

Can someone help me?!! My 808s are so silentttt and I been adding a fast distortion and Eqing and add a body on the bass and Idk what else to do

[@duece_prod]

Trill Bans turn up the volume on them and go easy with the eqing

[@trillbans]

Duece Productions thank you!!!

[@Kevin-tf8jk]

Just got your ad on your own video lmao

[@not_unsxgned]

Why didnt I watch this before? Thanks for the vid, always struggling with 808's

[@DmdJumpstyle]

Producing for a year and had to find this out on my own xd, tho its nice begginers can learn that here, really nice tutorial

[@kpprod4363]

Bruh I'm at 0:27 and let me just say the way you broke down what the video is going to be about just gave me goosebumps fr. I hope this video is the gold mine I was looking for, brb

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

kpprod436 hope you enjoy it!

[@ericahanes2009]

What limiter are you using? Great video.

[@jim6213]

When the 808s play my Melody sounds weak and underwater like... What should I do

[@warpbeats3577]

EQ the melody and cut the low end out of the melody

[@striekr13577]

Can you do a video on stems?

[@Jayyy2timez]

What’s the name of the limiter you use?

[@scarecrow404]

Amazing, useful content explained easy AS ALWAYS AMAZING!!! Thanks you!

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Yung Vear thank you !

[@chris-rb7bm]

awesome! parallel 808 sounds awesome! Nice tune! and very great lessons!

[@Drumvicious_]

This tutorial is nuts. You could also have nailed it by showing some free stereo vst like Flux Stereo tool to show people how to check phase issues. Anyways very good video!

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Thank you!

[@w_m_i]

Your channel has some of the most practical and useful mixing videos I've seen on youtube, thanks for sharing all this knowledge

[@leavealegacymusic]

Keep doing these mixing series bro, I feel in love with mixing and mastering ever since you started doing more in depth tutorials on it!

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Leave A Legacy let’s go! Haha thanks bro

[@xaint3560]

FUCK, that makes the 808 actually stand out and make it more like aaaaaaaaaaaaah, so good

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

thanks so much!

[@Verse2Beats]

bro you been dropping gems lately, my mixes and everything has improved thanks to you

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Verse2 Beats aye! Glad to hear that

[@rollingthatloud]

You're a great teacher mane. I appreciate you teaching us young producers the suace 🤘💥💯 hope you're getting paid 🤑 gang

[@adimedici5037]

Verb on the 808 parallel. 🔥🔥🔥 So wrong but so right at the same time lol

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

AdiMedici lmao! Get creative once you get rid of that low end haha

[@solootto]

What do you put on the master bus ?

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Solo Otto usually EQ, tube saturation, light bus compressor, and a limiter for loudness. It really depends though, sometimes nothing and just a limiter

[@hyrt.the.rapper]

That sound alot better thanks

[@hirobeats7360]

Any particular thing about the stock limiter that bothers you? Just curious, can't afford expensive plugins atm

[@hirobeats7360]

Oh and nice tutorial, of course. Some common sense stuff but also some pretty outside of the box stuff with the effect chain on that 808 bus, thank you as always

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

I personally don’t care for the interface and different limiters process audio differently when you start to really push the sound , etc but the FL one is just fine! Use it

[@JojoBro]

Very good Video! But if I route a Mixertrack to another Mixertrack, the original sound is played a few miliseconds to early and you definitly can hear that... Does someone has a solution?

[@iLLWiLLDaGoD]

Damn son where'd u find this? *Trap-A-Holic Voice*🤔 that distorted Reverb thou. The iLLest trick of the year! Thanks bro 😎

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

iLL WiLL Da GoD LMAO!😂

[@solootto]

Thanks for the tip bro

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Solo Otto welcome G!

[@kaylab7565]

Literally just used the same distortion technique today 🙌🏾

[@Charlesmadeit]

Or you could just use a spinz

[@jerrythebusdriver]

?

[@DonaldzrBeats]

lmao

[@user-fj3rl4nl2f]

Why

[@neolulubeats]

no.

[@papichulo2716]

Spinz 808?

[@prod.vvsaint]

dude this is crazy, ion rly comment on videos but you can really tell you know what youre talking about, this is INSANE advice bro glooksss

[@babydreadbabydread1742]

u always got the Sauce ! u german right? im german too :D

[@i.g.onthebeat6256]

This is bad ass bro just more sauce for the recipe! Is there anyway you could do a video about mixing in parallel?

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

I.G. On The Beat thank you! I have a few videos on it! Just gotta dig through haha

[@i.g.onthebeat6256]

LifeStyleDidIt ok man sounds good I’m just gonnna watch every video lol

[@ozantabakofficial]

Why you add that plugins for louder sound in new track on mixer (distortion) why you couldn't add on 808 mixer track?

[@JAYFLOPROBEATS]

great vid bro... and yeah thst pikachu vox is nice:)

[@Sol_Keez]

Question LifeStyle. So you always put the L1 limiter on your 808s. This tip seems very nice. Thank you!

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Not all the time, only when I need to control transients or push the 808 a bit. Usually when I’m mixing a track for someone and working with stems

[@Sol_Keez]

@@LifeStyleDidIt Thanks for replying. I'm looking at your old mixing tips thread on Twitter lol. Good stuff.

[@gutz98]

My hi hats makes my 808s wobble... Don't know why... Please help.... Anyone?

[@JackieLombardi]

Man i love this so much

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Jackie Lombardi thanks Jackie! I appreciate you watching

[@GOTRAVlogs]

How did you duplicate it? Sorry if I missed it

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

TUBETI BROS I used to send track

[@JaX-cu7hb]

However many videos I watch my mixes never come out good. Idk if it’s the samples I’m using or what but it’s annoying af

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Sample selection plays a HUGE part in it! I was always taught as an engineer “you can’t polish a turd” Lmao

[@JaX-cu7hb]

LifeStyleDidIt yeah. Maybe I should stop with the reddit drum kits 😂

[@augustte]

that beat fire

[@FourthKindBeats]

Does limiting the 808 to control peaks also work with using a limiter to sidechain the kick and 808? Like can I use both methods without fuckin shit up?

[@woodoxha7733]

so helpful thanks bro

[@prod.benjamin9540]

my kick is crashing with my 808. Sometimes the 808 just crashes with everything.

[@toreywilliams6760]

I know you don't like the fl limiter but dam I wish you would've showed how to apply to it in this video but I some what got it. Always learn a lot in your videos thanks man

[@PaulMagnet]

Sickest 808 mixing video on yt!

[@mikejigande]

I'm definitely watching this every time I need to mix an 808 just so I can learn from this. Thanks for an awesome tutorial dude.

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Glad it could help! Thanks for watching.

[@MenaceEnt1]

I’m kind of confused , you set the 808 to hit at -14 dB but the main fl meter shows it hitting higher ?? I’m having trouble understanding

[@straighttrippingmusic]

Nice share! I learned this one a while back from another mixer/producer.. How did you learn it?.. Also.. could get some buzz.. just from playing with a faster attack on the release of the L1.. but yeah.. usually just like a slower attack.. to keep things smooth/consistent.. Good stuff!

[@marcelprdctn7742]

Some of the best tutorials out there for sure 💪💪💪

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

marcel prdctn thank you so much!

[@smujohnson]

At the end of the video you suggest maybe using the distorted mixer copy track at different parts of the song.. you should make another video showing how to make the mixer automatically do what you want instead of manually with a mouse as the song plays! :)

[@bryanramirez4053]

Dope content as always! Been binge watching your stuff and goddamn I feel the growth

I have a problem , I did everything in this and soon as my melodic elements the spinZ gets so weak that you cant even recognise the notes , I need help

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Hey! Might need to EQ out some lowend from your melodies

[@THEL.I.J]

@@LifeStyleDidIt Thanks for ur response ill try do that thank you, mixngs a bitch lol

[@fettiknox4422]

Man you always share the best authentic information. Some of the stuff I learn from you is so good though I'm like "how in the hell did he even figure that out, I wouldn't of even know that was a thing." Did you go to school or do you really just be figuring this out on your own?

[@moneyylaundryy5360]

My 8098 doesn’t sound loud enough when I UPLOAD it on KZbin the melody and track like hi hats and clap are louder nice but louder than the 808

[@itzme9587]

Bro this helped me so much I was stuck with shitty 808s for awhile 😂😂😂

Awesome! I'm watching every video you make LifeStyleDidIt . You're really good. Keep up the great work.

Great video man, I've subbed. Does someone already told you that you look like the actor Cillian Murphy? lol you really look like a young Tommy Shelby from the series Peaky Blinders !

[@kylerichardson4223]

I don’t know what it is brotha, but all my 808 samples seem to be trash. They never come out clear when I try to add them into my songs. I rarely like putting ANY 808s in my beats because they always sound like your 808 when you put that reverb on it. Do you think it’s mainly just the sound selection that’s making me feel this way?

[@Hymnology001]

thanks

[@skarmusic406]

YO BRO YOU DID IT AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY USE FULL TIPS, THANKS FOR SHARING. BUT CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE THE LINKS OF THOSE PLUCKINS THAT YOU USE IN THIS VIDEO.

[@Youn-G84]

Kick ass tutorial....i just got the Spaz distortion plugin for free from Kyle Beats and am looking for ways to better utilize it. 💯

[@XNROP]

I like that 808 mane.. Got that large room powerful hit with that reverb on homie.

[@douglasrichardson2634]

thanks for the help. You made me realize why my mix was so muddy. My 808s has way too much Dynamic Range.

[@longarooni]

What if I level it the same towards my kick but use sidechain compression of -6db ducking?

[@prodHODY]

very useful tip thank you

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Hody thanks!

[@YungGoatBeats]

bro thanks a lot for this. i was letting the 808 do all kinds of gain mess ups. now i won't.

[@a7xSkateboarding]

"All kinds..."

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Yung Goat Beats 😂 it’s not bad.. but if you control it a little without changing the tone, you’ll save headroom

[@leftlane5085]

instead of smashing the transient (limiting) and risking changing the sound of the 808, couldn't you just go into the piano role and adjust the individual 808 note velocities until they have the same peak

[@tambusic1924]

the favourite Beat teacher. Dope as usual blo

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

Tambusic thanks so much!

[@rishxbeatz5761]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 great tip man

[@beatsbyloso5568]

when I try to send the 808 to the other track, both of the volumes mimic each other and I can’t control the volume of just one track. Any way I can fix that?

[@mundacaa]

those 808s are fire asf

[@LifeStyleDidIt]

[PROD. YOUNG CIRO] thank you!

[@mundacaa]

LifeStyleDidIt 🤙

[@papichulo2716]

How would you sidechain the kick and 808 with that limiter plugin?

[@spadetrillz3488]

when i try to route my 808 to a free mixer track, i only have the route to this track only option, plus the side chain options. i dont have a "Route to this track option"

[@Fabstylezzzz]

Is it powerfuller when you use a Synth for 808 (i mean instead of a 808 sample)?

thank u. making it contestant its really a smart move...
