Perfect example for not to low cut everything.

Please make a in-depth video about this

Kickstart2 move the fade to the end of low end frequency of the kick. Make sure the bass not bigger then the kick phase shift if needed. Done

I would love to give you one of my drum and bass tracks in studio one to see what you would do to it. Proper mixing G 👌

[deemarcomusic]

I would love too see how he mixes a bassline that hasn‘t as much space as this one has. 😊

What about note change ? And when the bass note and the kick don’t align ?

[mttlsa]

Shelf shape (if you're not working in linear phase mode) creates phase shift anyways (obviously the more you cut the more the phase shifts).

[truthseeker]

The best phase correction plugin is PI from Sound Radix

[Luke-otmk]

Fantastic! Which spectrum are you using? Multianalizer?

[Datacustic]

The hard shelf will do the same amount of phase shifting as the cut will do

[memeswillneverdie]

The low shelf still has phase shift granted much less but it’s there and it’s correlated to the steepness of the Q, also why do the bass and kick have to be in phase, they aren’t the same instrument recorded at the same time, if you sum the two and flip the phase on one and see the result and guarantee there will be no frequency differences. Also even if it did effect the signal flipping it 180 degrees would only help if the signal was 180 out of phase, slight phase shift could end up getting more audible by flipping the phase.
