You Suck at Producing: Panning

[@ZenWorld]

Glad to meet a community that sucks at producing as much as me. Thanks for providing this community Baby

[@yousuckatproducing]

thanks for watching dude! should have you on the show sometime

[@cursedsound]

@@yousuckatproducing when is this happening?

[@JohnPaulBuce]

a big channel, wowzers

[@edrender777]

Your comedic timing is very strong. Thank you

[@yousuckatproducing]

thank you keaton

[@jessicasouza8832]

I'm going to be a biology teacher here in Brazil, and by watching your videos i found out by example dat being direct, funny and using analogies is the best way to teach someone something. Wowzers thank you for existing. Hope you can understand my shitty english.

[@LEILIhousemusic]

You could also name the last two tracks "left leg" and "right leg" and then... you know, spread them a little bit. Nice tutorial dad. Thank you!

[@yousuckatproducing]

im sad not to have thought of this. thank you friend

[@LEILIhousemusic]

Senpai's mind is pure. Uses children as an example. Senpai must not be sad.

[@stevie8271]

but then we wouldn't be opening up children so i have to give this suggestion a 0/10

[@LEILIhousemusic]

So that's why master used children here!! Now I see clearly! Thanks man for "opening up" my mind. I owe you one!

[@Amentai]

Streams are good, but lessons are the real gold. Please post them more often. I was starting to get worried already. Thanks!

[@yousuckatproducing]

lessons every thursday this whole year. thanks for watching denis

[@swoop6165]

You are a genius by Einstein's standards. You can explain a complex concept into such sinplified terms that even a child or a grandparent can understand. I wish I was naturally a good teacher. Thanks UB

[@mickeymephistopheles]

Panning's always been a big iffy question for me; most nightclub sound systems are mono, and heavy panning can potentially result in weird phase cancellation problems when the left and right channels are mixed together. Stereo is typically just for the home environment. So at the very least, it would be advisable if you use panning to check it by listening to a mono mix, or through a single speaker with both the left and right channels going into it.

[@yousuckatproducing]

i second this

[@Noone-of-your-Business]

0:24 - *No.* Spacial location of sound sources mainly relies on the runtime (i.e. phase) difference between left and right. This is also why we suck at locating low frequencies, because their phase shift is dwarfed by their own wavelength. This is further why a good DAW pan control should modify the l/r volume _AND_ the delay between left and right channel. I have never found a DAW that openly does this. As far as I can tell, every "pan" knob is basically just a "balance" button as we used to find them on stereo amplifiers. Which is why spatialization plugins still rule the VST ecosystem. Which would be completely obsolete if DAWs finally started doing what they can easily do instead of still trying to emulate analog consoles and their restrictions.

[@can__top2]

I enjoyed this video on my mobile phone

[@yousuckatproducing]

this is good

[@littleendiandistortion6999]

I am so glad I discovered this channel. I really suck at producing, and I wish I could have found you sooner. The entertainment and learning is top notch!

[@PlamiastyBeats]

What an extraordinary message and sense of humor. You made my day.

[@wmaiwald]

okay socheckit

[@yousuckatproducing]

mmmmmmm

[@sideswipebl]

That song is a bop. I want to listen to the whole thing.

[@BenchyBeats]

that one dad

[@yousuckatproducing]

yes son

[@kevinzhu1727]

better than andrew huang

[@yousuckatproducing]

aww thanks bb

[@maxwelledwards1997]

the analogies are so on point

[@_TheViewer_]

Got to comment and give right to a guy from another video here saying underbelly could be a teacher. Make sure you provide it as easy and clear as possible to get every last one sucking at producing to learn and understand. Thanks for your time and effort, man.

[@swoggofroggo9320]

I am pleased by the existence of this video.

[@yousuckatproducing]

oh yes pleasure

[@xddddxdd119]

Bless me uncle joe

[@yousuckatproducing]

with pleasure

[@S2DEliptiK]

Thanks for all the support throughout the years dad. I know it wasn't always easy during my heroin phase but I think we make a stronger family and have a tighter relationship because of it.

[@Balthazar2242]

This is both hilarious and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

[@ronivaris8030]

A video about tips and tricks inside ableton (not necessarily anything beat making related), please. Loved the video Paps!

[@CH1EFBL1TZ]

DINGUS! you just gave away your inspiration for your youtube character, and I totally accept it

[@yousuckatproducing]

for your health

[@cursedsound]

Your beats are always so smooth man i love them!

[@dbprod.7428]

Love your videos man!

[@brisvegan89]

That thumbnail

[@yousuckatproducing]

put a lot of work into this one

[@chezitdude]

Upload more please! I love your videos

[@yousuckatproducing]

lessons every thursday this year! thanks for watchin dawg

[@LokiBeckonswow]

I really love your humour man, very nice

[@evertongabriel8859]

Just what I needed! Thanks man!

[@damiendeedunne351]

the only thing i feel you missed is that by panning left or right you turn down one side... and if you right click te pan knob then you split the channels to be able to true pan

[@HollerAtcherBoi]

I don’t know if that was even an option when this came out

[@SeamonkeyBeats]

this video was really basic, but i look forward for the stereo imaging video

[@yousuckatproducing]

yes, had to set some ideas up for the next one

[@SeamonkeyBeats]

okay love u

[@jsohi0082]

This song sounds really good, do you have a link to it?

[@phantomk2341]

Why is it when I duplicate instrument or sample or whatever and pan them to left and right and it doesn't work. What should I do? Also if I export one of that loop and then when i pan them to left and right then it works howcome?

[@maximilianmander2471]

He uses his trusty frying pan as a drying pan.

[@Ardeact]

THAT'S A BALANCE KNOB

[@svg98]

Hey Underbelly, does it matter on which side you pan e.g. the hi hats or the claps, is there an industry standard or do you just do your thing?

[@AutPen38]

In the early days of MIDi drum machines, it was normally recommended to pan each part of the kit like a real drum kit, with kick and snare in the middle and then Tom's and cymbals going from left to right. Claps could be placed wherever there was space in the mix. But these days you have more freedom. You can even have hats and percussion bouncing from side to side (with an autopan plugin), which wasn't really possible when engineers used fixed microphones around an accoustic drum kit. The key thing to do is get everything balanced, so if you have two percussive parts that use similar frequencies, you can pan them hard left and right if you want the listener to be able to hear them separately, but you rarely want one side to be all bassy and the other trebly as it will sound unbalanced.

[@JackSoundstack]

Any easy way to keep the mono mix untouched after switching back from stereo with panning? (using cubase)

[@johhnimoxx]

Would you mind sharing what sounds / presents you used for the keys and synths? They’re dope!

[@Vextrove]

Also delay the sound in the less loud channel for a cool 3D effect

[@wired-up5677]

Bro what sample pack did you find those drums they sound crispy AFF

[@MonkeyMichael123]

Thank You!

[@yousuckatproducing]

thank you mike

[@aprilcloud3834]

I miss you

[@-arb-]

Hey, that's a real swell video you've got there.

[@lostindigital2546]

so simple but so... solid(?)...

[@yousuckatproducing]

oh yes

[@victorcoyenn]

Badass.

[@fulanoblaze]

damn bro so you never gonna drop this track ???????? wtfff

[@dgwvjhth]

But muh speakers are both mono

[@yousuckatproducing]

oh

[@hiddenoasisprod]

kind sir, would you be able to let me know if I suck at producing in your next live stream? Great vid as usual

[@yousuckatproducing]

sure thing, send beats to [e-mail]

[@hiddenoasisprod]

just sent it, thank you my man !

[@xBLACKOUT19]

Uncle Joe means no harm

[@yousuckatproducing]

dont know about that

[@Chr0mePisto1a]

Thanks for the lesson doc.

[@davidpuletz]

The Beatles line was hilarious. Hahaha

[@jaymcd84]

Saw ya at Pyramind today! Stoked to have you there bro!! I was the dude up front.

[@yousuckatproducing]

ay good to see you friend. lets talk next class

[@KieranThompsonMusic]

The thumbnail made me want to cook up some wide ass beats

[@koolpfanski]

Uh I suck at that stuff... But I figured out something... If you can go left, or right... That's great. * But what about; front of the speaker, (i.e.) the cone. And in the back of the speaker (i.e.) in the speaker box, the bass- refex. All that's louder, and undefined. But the cone that's like a little out-let valve. Does inverting the track send it back. I've tried using a inverted track, to pull the speaker back; when the gain is high.[ To get soft distortion.] Can you help us? What is that called?

[@AutPen38]

You usually use some kind of delay or reverb or chorus (i.e. some kind of time-based effect) to make sounds seem like they are coming from further away. e.g. You usually have the kick drum in the middle and "upfront" right on the beat with no delay/reverb, but if you put some reverb on synths or pads, the sound appears to reach our ears later, which makes it sound like it's travelled further. Inverting the phase of a sound basically turns the waveform upside down. It's useful if you have two sounds that are "phasing" (cancelling each other out and creating that wishy-washy airplane taking off sound), but it won't have a discernible effect on a single sound. It just means the speaker will go forwards instead of backwards (compared to before), but still vibrate at the same frequency as before. Even sub bass frequencies of 40Hz are way too fast for your eyes to see, let alone for your ears to be able to tell which direction the speaker cone is travelling.

[@DarylMCDeath]

Panning confuses me. I work with FL Studio and there, the Panning button and the Stereo/Mono button do the same...I dont know when to do what! Help! And yeah...I suck at producing...

[@pbrninja19]

Send this beat to VIPER immediately

[@BadtripMedia]

If the track is in mono, does this matter at all?

[@yousuckatproducing]

nope

[@BadtripMedia]

You Suck at Producing sick

[@bboymac84]

Another great one!!

[@yousuckatproducing]

thanks mac

[@ollaredegheng9083]

[@yousuckatproducing]

luv u2

[@reedthelundy]

Is Ableton paying you yet? Cause they definitely should be. Great software, but you are the main reason I'm about to drop a couple hundred on that full access shit.

[@yousuckatproducing]

yeah im tryna get a sponsorship right quick

[@golden1324]

Do you like Lately I’ve Felt Unusual?

haven't check that out, is it good?

What if ur dad doesn't let u go on the playground where do u go

[@yousuckatproducing]

in the corner with derek

[@jameswhite4709]

Are those fake eyebrows or are you growing an "upper set" to compliment your existing ones

[@tokenofdevotion]

Hahaha omg

[@yousuckatproducing]

so far this is my third pair

[@jameswhite4709]

You Suck at Producing you should pan them LCR

[@kronos909able]

I love your videos!

thank you so much man!

[@limitisillusion7]

KZbin audio apparently can't be 100% panned, at least with Bluetooth. Too lazy to grab my wired headphones. It's either a Bluetooth thing or a KZbin compression thing.

[@guizau5071]

I FUCKING LOVE YOU

[@WomboBraker]

nice thumbnail brother

[@pablocoronado5739]

you're all into the Beatles or whatever

[@thedvcor]

I'm a simple man, If I saw an Underbelly's video, I just thumbs up in the first second of it.

[@la.sayita]

wowzers

[@SkyStrat11]

cool

[@yousuckatproducing]

mhm

[@Ege-h6u]

good job brother but just label videos with numbers, I am losing myself finding the following video @You Suck at Producing , great content thanks!

[@Hi.Jay.Low25]

Now I'm confused, since you called those the "balance" knobs and NOT panning knobs on your true v fake audio panning video

[@unknownmemory645]

great work underbelly

[@yousuckatproducing]

thanks dad

[@fulanoblaze]

I fucks with you bro. Uncle joes an OG! 😂♥️ shout out to my guy Joe

[@truericcboi]

Im starting to think uncle Joe is real...

[@yousuckatproducing]

damn right he is

[@AutPen38]

Everyone has an uncle Joe. It's just that he uses a different name in each family.

[@ChrisAlgiersCool]

dope

[@yousuckatproducing]

thx

[@sumu3730]

waozerzz!

[@mortalgekko3335]

This guy sounds like Klaus from Umbrella Academy but even more just not bothered with life

[@JohnPaulBuce]

ceramic panning

[@Huumf]

this was so funny wtfff

[@Michael-vd2tv]

you're on your Beatles whatever 😭

[@yousuckatproducing]

The Beatles suck at producing

[@paisleepunk]

@@yousuckatproducing Very different time, but I guess you like Giles Martin's remixes more. Also, it was mainly George Martin's fault for all this hard panning.

[@robertbeaman5761]

If it doesn't sound good in mono it won't sound good in stereo

[@chvnnel2283]

bro you're hilarious

[@gribmuse5686]

After 3rd min i've anderstood that i'm suck at panning. Thanks

[@plopper_guy53]

These are hilarious and useful hahah

[@HadesZerox]

Thanks a lot, this was just what i was looking for, i made a track and then when i listened to... it sucked xd

[@jonothenooob]

Yeboiiiiiiiiiiiii

[@yousuckatproducing]

oh yes

[@izvarzone]

That's too much panning for percurssion, I think.
