this content is perfect for people like myself who dont exactly have time to sit at the computer for hours learning how to mix. Quick, clear and has that "instant gratification" effect.

Kick below the bass, then i low cut frequencies in the fast parts of the kick. Also the lenght of the sub kick affects a lot . Some complex songs need more automation

Naturally there isn’t much low end in a kick drum, especially concerning sub bass. While bass guitar sits naturally down to 40Hz and then some depending on string count and tuning. So I keep my Bass guitar low and give the kick a boost around 60 to 70Hz while cleaning up everything below and of course taking out some upper mid frequencies where the bass can still cut through and then boosting the kick around 5-6K for a good cut as well. Ultimately it’s all about molding them around each other.

I’ve always mixed my kick below the bass but some of these examples sound pretty sick with the bass below the kick. Definitely gonna give that a go on some slower songs. Great video!

You can use a dynamic EQ to reduce frequencies side-chained from the kick, to trigger each time the kick drum hits. This way, one can preserve a lot of content in the low-end while attaining articulation. Another way is to use band selective compression (not the same as multiband compression) to tame the low end of the bass guitar and leave space for the kick drum at specific frequency range.

this has been the best video I've see on mixing kick and bass literally, you used a great produced track to really hear the concepts.

I’ll say in modern Trap beats you’ll very rarely find a kick below the bass. A lot of producers are also both shortening and clipping their 808’s so much that they don’t use kicks. You’ll see that in a lot of newer Trap beats. Just some random info. 😎

Great stuff. I would say though, after analyzing a lot of songs over the years, most metal songs have kick under, even the fast death metal songs.

Best nugget in the video, find where the bass drum peaks, and either HPF the bass guitar just above it, or EQ the bass guitar down there.

Thanks Joey! Any chance you'll ever touch on making midi strings and other orchestral instruments sound more full and realistic? :)

Can we say that the kick-above-bass is more common in mixes in rock and metal?
