Pro Mixing Tip: Get Perfect Kicks Every Time! (The EASY Way)
In this mixing tutorial, I’ll show you a quick pro tip on how to get a perfect-sounding kick that really cuts through in the mix. This trick works almost every time and is much quicker and easier than traditional kick layering.
When mixing music in FL Studio, Ableton, or whatever DAW you’re using, you’ll often experience that the kick just doesn’t seem to work in the mix, and you’ll end up replacing the kick countless times before you find one that you’re happy with. A kick will often struggle to cut through in the top end once you start adding more sounds in the mix.
By layering in sounds with more transients, such as a closed hat, a clap, and such, you help boost the transients of the kick and allow it to cut through in the high-end. This will help add rhythm and movement in your song, and the mix will sound much cleaner overall. The kick is one of the most important elements in your mix, so it’s essential that it works well in the mix.
Mixing and mastering can be difficult, but there are many mixing tricks like this, which are easy to do and makes a huge impact overall, so make sure to check out my other mixing tutorials as well, for more tips and tricks like this. In this mixing tutorial, I’m using FL Studio to mix the kick, but this same technique can be used in any daw.
