Brother can you make latest video for vocal mixing ??

[@rainquill_4772]

Thanks for the upload! 👏 ❤

[@CFox.7]

Sooo glad I got Reaper and the FREE Pro Q3 clone in JS Reeq

[@seanbeco5133]

Mr Micheal please is it possible to use multiple peak controllers in FL studio ?? And if yes ,then where do you select which one you are Sending a particular fader to

[@c.t8093]

Please I would love for you to mix and master my songs. Let me know how we can go about it. Thanks

[@NoahHornberger]

I just wanted to add confirmation that as someone who has practiced something like this for 20 years, I still frequently do it anyway and I typically can identify what the problem is just by knowing the frequency ranges. The hardest area for me is the 11k to 16k zone where things can sound quite crispy and tinny. Getting that area clean is hard and requires hearing the mix on many systems for reference. It is also where clipped levels and unwanted distortion can really add up!!

[@ntonioproductions1591]

I've learnt more from in the mix than from my music production degree. Thank you Michael!!!

[@markl5998]

Thank you I knew going to college was pointless

[@matthewvaughan8192]

@@markl5998 And ironically enough, confirmation bias seeks out the uneducated. You don't know anything about this dude's academic output, the quality of his courses or whether he's even telling the truth before you've jumped to what you already *wanted* to be true. More to the point, you pay for a certificate as much as an education. Try getting a job as a sound engineer by saying ''listen to how good my mixes are tho!!!!'' Never gonna happen unless your best friend is the talent. CV comes first, and his CV starts with a degree. Maybe college would have been pointless for *you,* but not everyone.

[@ashen_kills]

You are hands down the best "go to guy" for all my FL studio stuff, a big thank you because pretty much everything i`ve learnt is from you and you gave me the tools I needed. It doesn`t hurt that you have a genuine good energy about you either, i wish you all the best and thanks again :)

[@inthemix]

Wishing you all the best too!

[@jaymesonpon3212]

Agreed

[@Tr18Music-hl8qq]

Completely agree

[@RogerBeckett]

Love your videos and teaching style. Unlike a lot of people on KZbin you stay focused and direct on the task at hand and don’t wander off on tangents talking about stuff that doesn’t matter. Thank you so much for your videos and sharing your information and insights with us. It’s very much appreciated. I’ve learned a lot from you. Thank You! ❤🙏

[@xspyworld]

Thanks!

[@inthemix]

Thank you so much for the superthanks!

[@elijahmusic9489]

I have been missing you. Thank you Sir

[@nerfytheclown]

Right?... I decided Edison was never ever gonna be my friend, but three years ago, i was knee-deep in the battle to understand this whole process and Michael easily overshadowed everyone else in accessibility of the information, quality and clarity... And for a while he was answering exactly the problem i had, every week, until i dropped fruity loops. Still great info when he drops them. Best producer channel.

With Ableton EQ Eight, use Q=2.84 and turn off "Adapt. Q". Details: I was wondering why the difference was so difficult to hear with Ableton EQ Eight. So I installed a demo of Pro-Q 3 and it was much easier to hear the difference! After a bit of research, I discovered that a Q value of 1 in Pro-Q 3 is 0.71 in Ableton, so 4 as shown in the video becomes 2.84. Also, "Adapt. Q", which is on by default, adapts the Q value to behave like "classic analog EQ". With those fixes, the delta between a track filtered by EQ Eight and a track filtered by Pro-Q 3 is null. And thank you Michael, I'm already starting to have fun already with gentle EQ changes :)

[@rux_ton]

I would normally shy away from this-- but actually I think this is such a fantastic exercise to do! Thanks for yet another banger video dude

[@burning_KFC]

As always writing a comment to support the channel

[@adamsharpmusic]

I've done something similar to this before but with just mindless sweeping. This is a much more effective way of doing it, great tips!

[@-LTUIiiin]

This channel is a godsend

[@_mickmccarthy]

Excellent as always, really appreciate these concise videos. No fluff, straight to the point. Keep up the amazing work!

[@HaharuRecords]

I can tell that...Michael, The way you talk defines no doubt that such a brilliant listener you are..

[@echoface1670]

I'm a Studio One guy, but your didactic approach helps in any daw. We all appreciate your generous help.

[@SoLao]

This channel will forever remain the holy grail of mixing tutorials

[@jonathanmarquez2862]

dude i absolutely love your content. I have been watching y'all for a couple of years just learning and i cant help but thank y'all for all the help y'all have brought.

[@Brokennomads]

Awesome Michael! I started this excercise on a project I've been mixing for a week. I got really stuck in the last couple of days with the main melody in the end of the track (busy mix), it did not sound right and I could not figure out what it was. A -10dB bell at 2500Hz solved it, A lot of resonance there. Now it sounds cleaner and it cuts through my busy mix at the end. I've only done this for a little bit more than a year and I've been following you from day 1. I've progressed so much faster with your help than I could have imagined. Thank you! /Mattias

[@inthemix]

Hi Mattias, I’m so glad it was helpful to you even though it’s more of an ear training tool than a mixing tip! I’d definitely look to the source of that lead sound and clean it up at the synth if you can!

[@joolz666]

What a simple, yet great idea. I have problems differentiating frequencies (apart from the obvious), so I'm going to try this to tune my ears.

[@skaemusic]

Thank you so much! I can't wait to learn from you about some more exercises :)

[@sunnyumukoro7665]

Michael you’re the best . Just wowing here at the level of your intelligence. God bless you man

[@By_haZZa]

The only FL user i really respect!

[@bad_robot]

these little tips are so fire. need moooore

[@ViolëxDistortion]

Thank you so much . Watching all of your videos is like getting free mixing and mastering course worth thousands of dollars.

[@rodrigolucero4673]

It really worked for me after I look and try some tutorials, yours is the one that worked. Owe you a lot.

[@ethai1]

It kind of reminds me of Soundgym, they have several "mini games" that work almost exactly as what you've demonstrated. But this also seems effective, so thank you.

[@inthemix]

Soundgym is fun but I really like using my own music/projects as example tracks.

[@ax3629]

Hands down the best source on KZbin for everything mixing and production related!

[@MrLevi5010]

Grateful for any one who takes the time to share their knowledge in such a humble and succinct manner…top draw buddy! Thank you.

[@MrpottyMouF]

ALWAYS HELPFUL, CANT W8 TILL U HIT 1 MILLLI, YOU DESERVE IT MR MANZ

[@diablosixshooter5627]

Glad to see you're still uploading. I've learned a lot from you. Thank you.

[@showmehowyouplayit5949]

I am a big believer in having an arsenal of practices that get you ahead of others. When it comes to language learning, i don't start with grammar. I start with small sounds. When it comes to effective mixing, what you have just showed us is a Tool of Titans.

[@Zenroemusiekmusic2000]

Your tips are the best

[@escapegulag4317]

You are so well spoken

[@Leous]

That's what wisdom sounds like

[@TocoaPuffs]

Thank you, this is so simple, but I didn't think of it. I don't have a good ear for EQ and am excited to use this to help in my mixing.

[@A.P.L.O.]

Fire def gonna try it out

[@furcloud2450]

Awesome tutorial! Btw what headphones are you using? Thanks :)

[@nofcsrecordsofficial]

OBRIGADO POR TUDO

[@nemen1639]

Thank you Michael for this wonderful tip and exercise! ❤

[@spacemanonearth]

Thank you, wondered where you have been.

[@inthemix]

I took a few months off KZbin to focus on audio mastering full-time and also for my health. I'm happy to be back!

[@Ruzbeatz]

I truly learn alot from you! Keep giving us gems!

[@flipperpitstudio]

Thank you! 🙏 You are my fave mixing channel! So informative and so easy to listen to. This is fascinating. I love the idea of training your ear by subtracting a sound rather than boosting it. Very logical! Something being taken away is always more noticeable. lol Just starting semester 2 of mixing/mastering class and I'm going to do this on the next assignment! 👏😎

[@flipperpitstudio]

...and will def go join your discord now!

[@EmpoweringArtsStudios]

jedi ear training - most excellent - thank you!

[@johnblunt1313]

very cool idea. makes sense. trying it out!

[@diegooliveirabenjamin]

This is very useful and efficient

[@High-Tech-Geek]

One of my first projects, I got everything sounding great and shared the final with friends and online. Then I listened to it at a friend's and was horrified (embarrassed) that it was completely flat and dead and mush. What I didn't realize was that Dolby Atmos was running on my Windows PC and FL Studio was playing through that. I'm still surprised that it does that, but now I turn off Dolby Atmos every time I work in FL Studio. Kind of a pain, but I now hear the true sounds.

[@correametal]

This is excellent advice!!! Thank you!!!

[@ekka7883]

Worked, thx

[@ossamamahmoud1853]

AWESOME 💥 💯💯💯💥💥💥

[@mufasa3125]

Hey Michael , Thank you for everything. I would also like to request you doing a video on HOW TO MIX VOCALS ON A 2TRACK BEAT FROM KZbin since most of us beginners are only using instrumentals from KZbin. Other youtubers cant seem to explain it clearly for us and you're the only one in the world who can. God bless you and your family...Love from Malaysia

[@fredof4413]

Agreed. More vocal mixing would be good

[@nassermo.8805]

Agree 👍👍👍👍

[@muxriddinrayimov8206]

its working!!! thank you :)sa)

[@Keroser1983]

THANK YOU!!!!

[@nuladvajedan]

The really tricky part is tunning your head to a flat response so you have a less work to do after, I guess.. but after this video I gained a brain cell😂 Great video bro I appreciate you 🤝
