    In this tutorial, we will be going over this cool way I learned to glue the kick and bass together. I have to give credit where it's due, as WHITE SEA STUDIO first implemented this idea in one of his videos.
    There are 3 reasons your bass and kick aren't glued together
    *Sound Selection
    Ever find a KICK that just worked well with your bass that it sounded like it didn't need a sidechain? Ever switch out a crap kick out of your track and put in a different one only to notice the mix get better? This is all due to picking sounds that work well together. For Tech-House 909 Kicks work the best with filtered analog-based basslines.
    * Perfect Sidechain
    A sidechain is crucial in dance music to allow the kick of the space it needs to not clash with your bass. The problem is some people sidechain a bit too much resulting in more of a pump effect that leaves a gap in low-end energy.
    * Compression
    Depending on the bassline and kick you've chosen the dynamics on both will be at different values. With compression, we can glue them together to get more of a compact feel.

    this is like the number 1 thing my mixes were lacking, I always wondered "WHY THE FUCK does the kick sound so throat hitting, but so small for some reason, it's like it powerful and not powerful at the same time" and this is not just for tech house, every single professional mixing engineer does this I'm 100% sure every big labels sounds so nicely glued together, thank you zen, I saw this before but I had to come back

    Anyone using Cubase group your kick and bassline together by right clicking (group channels) and use the built in MB compressor with the same config as fabfilter. It translates really well and make a huge improvement for me.

    hey professor zen,
    I saw the way you use side chain or lfo tool for the sub bass part. There is actually an issue always happens to me when I tried to mix them. Basically, if i don't use a heavy( straight curve) volume reduction in lfo or any kinds of a compressor sidechian( DOESNT MATTER THE RATIO OR THRESHOLD), the sub bass still fight with the sub of the kick. What do you do with it?
    This brings the second question. Whats your way to actually tell if the sub bass and the sub bass of kick are clashing or not well mixed?
    Usually I trust my meter. If the sub freqeuncy is not sustaining, that means they are not mixed properly.

    I need to tame the transients on my kicks. kinda new to house production (DnB guy) and I keep picking kicks with to much click\smack in the beginning. I should prob not use a transient shaper and just pick different kicks. Weird part is they don't sound that clicks when i just got the kick going... later down the line of making the tune is when i notice it.

    Yo Zen, do you know what kind of kicks are used by doorn records producers? For example well the obvious one Sander Van Doorn, Bottai, David Tort and some other non doorn producers like Mastrovita and Funkin Matt. I notice my kicks just don't sound as tight as theirs, too bassy in most cases and I can't seem to get around it. Mostly actually my kick doesn't sound throat hitting as for example the one you have in your track, it's probably a mixing issue for me also, not just a sample choice. Also if you need new ideas I would love a full tutorial on how to make and mix a Doorn Records type track, I would call the genres there future trance, I know you love trance so you might find it interesting. Thanks!
    EDIT: well, watched the video through the end, I really hear the difference, that's the thing I was looking for lol

      @ZenWorld  Před 3 lety

      Depends really on the type of track you use it on. For anything sustained this works as 100% of the time there are no dynamics to a sustained Bass. Keep in mind as well that PRO MB isn't running an actual 0 ATTACK MS, it uses an algorithm and dependent on your percentage of attack/release inputted it will adapt to your music. Can't really comment much how it works as they don't reveal that. All the best Luc and do what works best for you.
