0:01 This is track 1 over here, this is track 2
Alright folks, another tutorial for you. In this one we're going to be using the bass, the mid and the treble. Another way of using the bass, mid and treble in conjunction with doing an actual mix. As ever, look in the description for the names of the tracks. This is track 1 over here, this is track 2. What I'm going to do, I'm going to bring in track 2 over the end of track 1, but I'm going to mix it in slightly different. What I'm going to do is I'm going to just add on a tiny bit more mid. At the moment the mid is at 12 o'clock. I'm going to bring that up to around about say 1 o'clock, but I'm going to completely take away the low and completely take away the high. Now there is a reason for this because there's quite a bit of emphasis on the mid in the beginning of this track. Excuse me, have a listen. There's a lot of percussion going on there and what I want to do is I want to try and emphasise the percussion in the mix.
1:18 Let's play track one
If we have a look here on the reader, we can see this graph here. We can see a tiny increase here. Now that tells me that we've got a lot more happening there. More than likely that's where the bass will come in. What you'll see me doing though is increasing the bass after the bass has already started here. A little bit, take it back out, maybe a little bit of high, back out, and then bring the bass in, bring the high in, almost at the same time. But while I'm doing that, slowly reduce the mid. So in other words, eventually when we've brought this track in the mix, the high, the mid and the low will all be at 12 o'clock. Now bearing in mind... I haven't got any headphones as well, so the whole idea of this demo tutorial isn't to show how brilliant I am at mixing. It's a case of a demonstration and then hopefully you'll get a few ideas, tips and tricks from this. So let's play track one. Right, crossfade in the middle. Both sides up now. Low, down, mid.
Just about one, one and a half, or 130 should I say, high off. And again, with this guy here, it's the Nuo 2.0 from Echo. What I could do is I could just press that and press that. So we've got the high taken away and the low taken away. Alright, I missed my cue point there, so I'm going to go back a bit. Backgrounds, have a listen.
