Submix-ception HAHAHAHAHA

[loganmcafeetv]

hey ummm i cant pay for maximus is there other pluggins i can use to do the same thing?

[DJSeasho]

@loganmcafeetv Nothing cheaper out there that works as well, gotta invest in your music if you want to get anywhere man. I've dropped over 3k in this so far

[vblings]

I didnt know the submix feature before. Thanks! I was finding an easy way to apply effects on every channel except some channels I dont want to.

[spicetbedhead]

Your good man!! Thanks for all info!!! Keep in touch, Tyson J.

[otooj2008]

Would you be able to save this as a template?

[DJSeasho]

@otooj2008 Yup you can save a mixer preset by clicking the upside down triangle in the upper left corner then going down to file save mixer track state as.

[otooj2008]

@DJSeasho Thanks, I just saved it as the Default template when I open FL :D

Excellent 5Part Tut

[twinakafresh]

@jeanpoint22 I have the same problem....

[DJSeasho]

@jeanpoint22 Check out the link at the beginning of this video at the top

[nuclearshadow12]

lol nevermind figured it out... stupid question :)

[DJSeasho]

@nuclearshadow12 No such thing as a stupid question when it's just something you don't quite understand, but I'm happy you figured it out lol

[Jon3Blaz3]

@nuclearshadow12 use the word ignorant it means you haven't learned it yet, no one is dumb ;]

[nuclearshadow12]

i have a question. how do u get the big dB meter to show up next to the part where u add in your effects? like how do u get it to show up to the left of where you put in the soundgoodizer and all that other stuff? for some reason it doesnt show up on my mixer

[BraytonBeatz]

Another question. My cpu load is running about 50% just when one instrument is playing, but this is after i mastered the sound with the EQ plugin. I was wondering if there is anyway to reduce the cpu load because it is really hard on my computer.

[DJSeasho]

@BraytonBeatz For the interim you'll have to turn off the FX Slots while producing the beat, then turn up your latency buffer and re-enable them when setting your levels and mixing etc, this can make the process much more tedious, but I can't think of much else other than upgrading your pc.

[DJSeasho]

@MWObeatz Thanks for watching!

[nuclearshadow12]

wow i learned so much from this tutorial! thanks a lot man. cant wait to watch the rest of them :) lol i had the volume up loud and that drop scared the crap outta me at the end

[DJSeasho]

@nuclearshadow12 Haha sorry about that in the end lmao, no problem thanks for watching! If you enjoyed or learned something from these vids please share them =]

[Sam60418]

Damn I also can´t create the submix, please bro show us a different way to do that with older versions. this is the vid i´ve been looking for a very long time! thx

[DJSeasho]

@Sam60418 Will do hang in there and thanks for watching!

[blacktalon72]

i cant create a submix....

[DJSeasho]

@blacktalon72 This seems to be a common issue with alot of users, I'm going to make a tutorial with an alternative method.

[blacktalon72]

@DJSeasho thanks man, and i was also wondering y dont u use protools?

[DJSeasho]

@blacktalon72 Mainly because I couldn't afford to pay for it lol, no problem

[PestratorProductions]

Hey bro wat do we do if we cant create a submix?

[DJSeasho]

@PestratorProductions I'll make a tutorial surrounding a workaround soon =]

[PestratorProductions]

@DJSeasho allright bor ty i appreciate it a lot and idk why but whenever i add maximus or the multiband compressor it only makes my sounds wayyyy louder

[DJSeasho]

@PestratorProductions Make sure you select the presets we did in the video, and also make sure that you set the template up and watch the levels before you even start making the beat. If you're putting them over an old beat you'll have to redo all your levels

[PestratorProductions]

@DJSeasho allright ty bro and what do u mean levels? do u mean the volume or on the side how it has that bar? and i did pick the same presets but ty for the reponse bro

[DJSeasho]

@PestratorProductions Levels as in volume meters =]

[DKProjectA]

WUHUUUUUUU DJ SEASHO'S VIDEO FRIDAY! :D

[DJSeasho]

@DKProjectA lol =]

[wwemj213]

its not fair

look i dont have ur version of fl

i cant create submix and so the whole thing is fucked up

and im not the only one to tell yyou that :(

[DJSeasho]

@wwemj213 I'll do a tutorial on an alternative method to submixes soon, it's really simple all you need to do is manually route the channels instead of creating a submix.

[seemsw3ird]

Great Tutorial! thx!

[DJSeasho]

@seemsw3ird Thanks for watching no problem =] If this tutorial helped you alot please share it with friends and help spread the knowledge

[rookie3945]

what about beats by dre headphones are they good for mastering

[DJSeasho]

@rookie3945 For the money you'd be better off going with Sennheiser

[CARTOONSMUZIKGROUP]

@rookie3945 Dt770's are dope Im a mix engineer, Certified!

[DJSeasho]

@Itsosman No problem, thanks for watching parts 1-5 are now up

[kersitie]

I LOVE U MAN LOL I WANNA ENTER A COMPETITION NOW HOPEFULLY A DIRTY SOUTH ONE (HINT HINT) AND ALSO WHAT IF WE DONT HAVE STUDIO MONITORS WE ONLY HAVE STUDIO HEADPHONES

[DJSeasho]

@kersitie Haha I'm glad it helped, if you don't have studio monitors, do your best with the headphones, but you're going to have to listen to the beat on 3 or 4 different systems as you mix and render it, the process can take days without monitors, and won't be as precise, but don't rely only on the headphones. Also if your mix sounds good quiet, it should sound good loud.
