I leave a comment on almost every one of your videos saying how much of an amazing teacher you are Michael, and here it is again! Thank you for sharing such precious knowledge! I really mean it!

Thank you, I’ve noticed and it’s a great boost!

Not afraid to admit I am probably old enough to be your grandad, never mind dad - but you teach me stuff every time I watch. You have a very clear, mature and succinct way of imparting information and would no doubt make a great teacher. Thanks.

[@AKAtAGG]

Still one of the best teachers on KZbin. I'm an experienced producer and still watch these, you never know what you're gonna learn. Ace.

[@nathseverett4288]

Thank you. I only just started audio mixing about a year and a half ago and, aside from reading different materials about it, I learned most of my application from your videos. This particular video is very helpful. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us.

What types of genres do you mix?

[@nathseverett4288]

@@Mateusz7821 I teach Musical theatre. So mostly show tunes and Disney songs. Raw recordings from my students, most of them have no professional gadgets so, yeah, you can just imagine the quality of their recordings 😌. Then I use existing passable accompaniment from YT. These videos have been very helpful.

[@mgmg116]

@@nathseverett4288 There are free resources online for practice multitracks that anyone is free to download and use to practice mixing with. Full studio quality (most are 44.1/16 WAV) and there are MANY genres - rock, metal, soundtrack/symphonic, pop, folk/acoustic, etc! Just google "Free Multitracks" or "free multitrack resource"! You are free to use them in all ways as you wish in order to practice mixing - the only limitation is that you are not allowed to release these mixes commercially, for obvious reasons. Hope you find this info useful :)

Imagine me starting out home recording, building a studio in 1990, and having all this wonderful information available. Gee, back then I was reading articles and books. And copy them. And taking notes. Millions. Of. Notes. Cheers!

I find it ironic that having all this information at my disposal can be a bit overwhelming and love me a good book to take notes and cement my memory of what I learned, not knocking you at all I just think maybe you doing it that way was better in the long run. Or maybe it’s my ADHD talking lol!

Your videos are incredibly well made and one of the best resources I've used for making music. Straight to the point and incredible advice that's applicable in real world usage. Many thanks!

[@jacobhatfield764]

I'm really glad I found your channel, not going as far to say it's changed my life-- that cheese-- but it's really helped me learn more about music in a way I've never thought. That said, mixing and playing are two different fields, but they overlap in many cases too, so being able to take all the practice I've put into learning piano and applying it to mastering and mixing techniques I've learned from this KZbin channel has really helped me grow, so thank you!

[@Davisk]

This channel is a goldmine of information. Thank you for all you share with us!

[@OperculumAudio]

I've just been doing some heavy EQ learning lately, mostly intelligent EQ with the Multiband patcher preset in FL Studio. Really helps carve out frequencies of other sounds to allow room for instruments and other sounds

[@TheSimpleCitizen]

So I've been watching countless FL studio tutorials on mixing , eq-ing, compression, and side chaining. By far, your videos are by far the best in quality and thoroughness. Also, won't lie, but im Kinda jealous of your voice 😅😅. Keep these coming tho bro. We appreciate your work. Btw, in still having a hard time understanding side chaining and aside from like a kick or 808, can it be useful anywhere else? And also, regarding eq-ing , any tips on in the event of using a full drum loop...i.e kick , snare , hats. Thx! I have ozone 9 , FL 20, loads of plug ins

[@inthemix]

Thanks for the kind comments! For sidechaining, it can be useful for competing mid range elements too. You could sidechain the vocal to a synth pad and reduce the treble of the pad when the vocal reaches a certain level. This can create more presence and depth in the mix when done right. My previous video about side-chaining shows how to do this in FL studio with a dynamic EQ. For mixing drum loops, multi-band processing becomes an invaluable tool. Multiband compression so that you’re not over compressing the whole drum group if you just needed more compression on the bass or snare alone for instance. There will always be overlap and that’s okay! I hope that helps a little?

[@TheSimpleCitizen]

@@inthemix perfect!! Thank you so much! It helps n gives me an area to explore further! I look forward to your next videos! 🤘

This premium quality we are getting everything for free thanks alot Michael

[@fritsvanzanten3573]

This is such a good video. The only drawback is that it's a lot of information to take in in one time. Maybe after each part of theory some more examples would benefit the pace. Second, it made me understand something I wondered about. In a recent video/masterclass Catherine Marks used at least three hardware EQ in serial order for mixing, and some plugin ones on top of that too. Maybe a video on this specific practice (with the same excellent explanatory audio and visuals) would be nice (if not here already, of course).

[@inthemix]

Thanks for the feedback. I can see watching the video back that the pacing could be improved. It’s a tricky balancing act of keeping a video engaging while not moving too fast. I think I’m getting the balance right in my recent videos. As for the stacking of multiple EQs, it’s likely a personal preference and she has learned which bands she likes from each EQ. Often I’ll use one EQ because I like the way it adjust the low end and then I’ll use something else for the treble. I also leave all “surgical” eq for digital/plugins.

Love Michael's videos, and this one is no exception. Speaking as a hobbyist at this stuff -- what's a side-channel? Can someone please explain or link to a good explanation of it? Thanks

[@Krunal-Music]

That left side chennal,right side chennal,mid side EQing is very new for me 😄 very nice results 👍👍 Love the video ❤️❤️ Do you know any free version of that kind of EQ?

[@inthemix]

I have to admit I am not aware of a good free mid side EQ but I haven't given it a good look. There are some workarounds in most daws where you can try to separate the side channels out and apply a regular EQ to them but it's not as easy!

[@Krunal-Music]

@@inthemix yeah, well nice idea though 👊 I will try 👍

[@mgmg116]

You could technically make your own by combining Fruity Parametric EQ 2 and Fruity Stereo Shaper inside an instance of Patcher in FL. You can use some creative routing to isolate your Mid and Side channels and EQ them seperately then re-combine the signal at Patcher's output. This might mess with your phase, so be sure to check the mix in MONO and make sure nothing's disappearing.

[@Krunal-Music]

Hey mike ive been using fl studio for some time now,what i need to know is that is it fl only for programming like others says,or it can olso be used in mixing and mastering we really relly on you,you are our own goat plz help

[@inthemix]

I use it for professional mastering every day of the week, along with other software. It's a fully-featured audio editor for mixing and mastering but the workflow might not be for everyone. The sound quality of FL Studio is mathematically identical to all other DAWs when combining audio tracks

[@septemberwalk]

when would you recommend using linear phase eq if at all? i heard someone say a while ago to use it for mix bus eq but interested in your thoughts. i use linear phase in fab filter on low for mix bus eq because i heard using it on the low setting will mostly avoid the artifacts that come with linear while also not messing with phase.

ThNks a lot for the videos mate your a legend! Quick question for you if you have time to answer… when you record a sound into Edison (from you track) do the mixer effects still apply to that recording? Just as I’ve recently converted all of my midi patterns into audio and now my mix sounds totally different! 🙈 thanks a lot Nate keep up the good work!

[@inthemix]

I’m late to reply here but it depends where te Edison is loaded. If it is above the effects then it will record the signal without the effects. If it is placed below the effects in the fx chain, the effects will be recorded too.
