Do you have enough melodic content to make the song memorable? Is the track missing mid-low frequencies due to a pure sine-wave bass?<\/li>\n<li>Sometimes it\u2019s beneficial to bounce stems from your session and start a fresh project for the mix. T<strong>his gives you fresh perspective and more available CPU to process plugins<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>2.\u00a0Spectral Balance<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>One of the most crucial parts of a good mix is balance across the entire frequency spectrum.

Read about the solution below in \u201cSound Shaping\u201d.<\/li>\n<li>For example, bass is huge problem in electronic music. If you have a pure sine wave bass it will be virtually inaudible on smaller speakers. I<strong>t\u2019s beneficial to have a bass sound with harmonics that extend into the higher frequencies so that it translates to all listening systems<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>3.\u00a0Sound Shaping &#8211; Filtering and Saturation<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>So how do we create those harmonics if our sounds are very digital or dull? Tools like saturation help by using subtle distortion to add harmonics<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><iframe title=\"Mixing - Saturation on Bass\" width=\"370\" height=\"278\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Szqt52Ne4lE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Filtering is another way to make our sounds more interesting and give them character.

This is an essential part of Equalizing. Equalization for me is typically subtle, <strong>90% of my EQ\u2019s are high pass or low pass filters to cut out unnecessary frequencies<\/strong> and leave more headroom for important sounds.

So we have two prominent mix elements panned hard left and right that will create a substantial difference and make our mix sound very wide.<\/li>\n<li>The key is to <strong>pan things across the frequency spectrum to create a nice wide stereo image<\/strong> while using your judgement to make sure it still sounds balanced.<\/li>\n<li>It is also possible to make a singular sound wider by using effects like chorus, reverb, delay or mid\/side EQ. There are also stereo processing plugins from companies like <strong>Waves<\/strong> and <strong>iZotope<\/strong>. It\u2019s important to be careful with these however as they may introduce phase problems if your mix is played back in mono.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.soundonsound.com\/techniques\/phase-demystified\"> Learn more about phase here.<\/a><\/li>\n<li>I prefer keeping things closer to mono and then panning them to create more total stereo difference. Ableton\u2019s Reverb has a \u201cstereo\u201d adjustment which (if turned to 0) allows us to add depth to a sound while keeping it mono, then we can pan it to one side without many phase problems at all.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3127 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/IMG14.png\" alt=\"future-beat-stereo-width\" width=\"484\" height=\"189\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/IMG14.png 484w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/IMG14-300x117.png 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 484px) 100vw, 484px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 484px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 484\/189;\" \/><\/li>\n<li>Additionally on this track I\u2019ve used some subtle mid\/side equalizing to push certain frequencies into the stereo field using phasing.

I\u2019ve used 3 return tracks with reverb and delay to send multiple instruments to each type of space effect. This helps add more depth to our track as it increases the sustain of these instruments and helps put them in a sonic space.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/producing-future-beats-mastering\/\">For Part 4: Mastering, Click Here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ableton Live trainer, Alec Ness (su na) writes about how to mix a Future Beats track on Splice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":3477,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1698,1696],"tags":[657,325,163,333],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.9 -
