How To Mix 808s (INSTANTLY BETTER BEATS!!)

[@bassplayerpapabear]

Dude your tutorials are incredible. This one is awesome. I took ten years or so away from production and composition and it's been a joy to get back into making music

[@ReidStefanMusic]

Thanks for watching! Don’t forget to Check out all the tutorials that lead up to this point in the description!

Welcome back champ

[@edwin_exe]

Reid you're such a blessing for us, the 808 good himself

[@halfdan1966]

I don’t even really care for 808’s but I’m a simple man, I see a Reid Stefan video, I click

[@David-hz8pf]

Aside from your mixing techniques, you are a such a great musician. Sometimes, I'm just listening to the songs and not the tutorial itself. 😊. Thanks.

[@SudhanshuSinghMusic]

Ableton: pitch bend NEW!! FL Studio: Hold my Slides!

[@dafactoryproduction7904]

Love the way you refer to 808 as disrespectful. Top quality Context

Genius Branding

[@Gsmi87]

I've been watching these tutorials for so long that I've forgotten that he's a puppet

[@BabyDaylinerNYC]

That pitch bend gonna be my hot new trend Thx reid!

[@seasonbeats6221]

Nice! I think I might buy the whole Disrespectful 808 set today or tomorrow.

[@Nightmoore]

Great stuff Reid (as always)! You mentioned being surprised at the 808 name for the distortion effect and thought it might be a coincidence. As it turns out, the term "808" is a big deal in the guitar world for a totally different reason. The "808 circuit" refers to the architecture of the original green Ibanez TS808 overdrive pedal. It's also commonly known as the "Tube Screamer." It's probably the most popular (and emulated) guitar pedal ever made. It's almost always included as an effect for any guitar amp modeling software. Guitar nerds (myself included) will sometimes refer to that particular overdrive as an 808.

[@fjkldhakljf]

Add the ts808 pedal to the roland tr 808 kick for the ultimate 808

[@Nightmoore]

@@fjkldhakljf For sure. You can call it the "1616 effect." lolz

[@ReidStefanMusic]

That’s awesome! I own the 1981 Classic Ibanez TS-808 (with the original malaysia chip before they shortened the name to TS808 without the dash - ) it sounds great and is in mint condition still!! 👍🏻

[@ShaunTrillo]

you would if talking about a ts808 and not a ts9 or a ts10 which sound different

[@Zizotron]

That 32 bit float advice was discombobulating thank you bro!!

[@EricsonPresents]

[@wildhorsemusic1111]

Thank you. I'm trying to figure out how to match up the rhythm of my keys and 808. I recorded my keys first. Need to put to a beat detector. Don't know how to do any of this if you can help pretty please:)))

[@GhostSamaritan]

There's a free plugin called A1 Stereo Control I use to only put the frequencies below 125 Hz in mono on the bass bus and widen the frequencies above.

[@ascension1199]

Your videos are great. Thank you! Karra album?

[@mischpape]

Hey can you show us how to get clipping 808s like in "Miss the Rage". Especially how to master and export a Song like that from ableton. I dont get how to keep the dirty, clipping sound in the final mix.

[@nickyscorpio5066]

Thank you! Love your content. How much do you low-cut on your kicks when you have trap songs? I see so many different answers someone yesterday I saw said up to 60 😳

[@ReidStefanMusic]

Usually no low cut

[@beatsbydaku]

4:25 Logic users left the chat

[@SoniqSounds]

haha stop!

[@ReidStefanMusic]

Logic is the most affordable DAW for a reason 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@SoniqSounds]

@@ReidStefanMusic stoppppp. It's literally me bread and butter 😂

[@minislash99]

It's called the 'tube screamer 808' because one of the models of Ibanez guitar pedal 'tube screamer' is called the TS808 (the other type his the TS9) completely unrelated to the 808 Roland drum kit bass drum sound but a bit of a coincedence none the less.

[@corrgtdbeats]

🔥

[@shawnwaldron8912]

Do you know of any kool delay and reverb effect chains for vocals that can be use across all genres of music

[@gasmaskestore8018]

What I do is load them in simpler and use the actual envelope on the sample section

[@slickvisualsttm1089]

Nice video as always but I think you might need a few aspirin after every session for some reason. Most entertaining mixing tuts hands down.

[@natanbake2933]

best beets now!

[@itswermzer]

What made you start using sidechain compression instead of manual ducking? Great tutorial btw

[@HollerAtcherBoi]

When mixing songs with both 808s and kicks- I’ve often noticed that certain notes of the 808 pattern are out of phase with the kick, but only certain notes. So, I end up having to split the 808 melody into 2 separate tracks, one track with the polarity flipped, the other not. And this is both before and after processing… Why is this?

[@nofme]

Why are your studio monitors so close to the wall? Where is your acoustic treatment? You're one of my most trusted puppets for music production and I just got through deep diving into setting up my new studio monitors, took everything out of my office room to totally rearrange so my desk is in the center of the room and I've got a $200+ lowest budget minimal set of a well regarded acoustic panel kit in my Amazon cart (can't recall company name), hemming and hawing over whether to buy it or shell out more for the more expensive mid tier set, and I don't see you doing.. like.. *anything* these studio monitor setup guides said! The tweeters for the top speaker isn't even aimed at your puppet ear level let alone 60° angles to your puppet head. I just don't know what to think. Does any of that stuff make such a difference if the most trusted puppet in the business isn't bothering with it?

[@ReidStefanMusic]

Check out my studio tour video for info about my treatment and setup kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2qTqYGLoMmKqNk

The pedal and drum machine both being called "808" is just a strange coincidence.

Noooo 1, why is there a fire going in the back ground Its Summer 2.That puppet needs to go dude its f47646king Creepy !!!!

[@bumbleb3e]

Hmm ... didnt understand anything. Thought to learn something about 808 and what that is. You dont even explain waht 808 is at first and than you jump into it, in a complex environment and talk about respect? I think, this has nothing to to with respect, its creativity. Advice from me ... keep it simple. The ability to keep it simple is intelligence.

[@Sjdngncomr]

Very disrespectful
