This is the second point in time I've studied this series, and I've gotta say, it's really, really comprehensive. Last time I was learning about picking samples. This time I came to learn about processing, and it's exactly what I was looking for. Big ups for making quality vids that are great for many different experience levels, and for releasing it free.
Good luck with the new album!

@DJVespers I followed all 5 parts of this tut and combined them with other tuts of yours to make the grand mother of all Live templates incl. LFOs on hats and "Secrets to layering beats".
Now, I'm getting the fattest sounding beats I've ever made. Check out the example for your aural enjoyment:

%20Loop.wav Keep in mind I mixed it on hifi speakers and it's just a couple bars to say "thanks" for the great tuts.
Take a listen and gimme feedback. :)

SUB BASS Secrets in Native Instruments MASSIVE - Pt 1 of 2by DJVespers88,070 views
Excellent set of vids man. Quick question though - is there any rough guideline as to how loud your drums should be in a track? DB-wise that is. With all the compression and limiting go on I have a rough time trying to keep the levels within reason/no clipping.
WC7495 7 months ago
@WC7495 Glad you enjoyed them. I mix all my tracks pretty quiet at the beginning. I gain stage everything to about -15 dbfs, then I have room to move them up. By the time I'm done a mix I target having the overall levels peaking at -6dbfs.

Taking a listen to your track, those beats really do sound super-phatt, which raised another question (if you don't mind):
You make mainly Breaks and Glitch Hop and I'm more into producing 4/4 EDM. Do these techniques - layering, similar EQ, distortion, etc translate easily over to 4/4 EDM?

@ryancalhounashton Hey bro. Yeah, most of these techniques will translate. In 4/4, obviously your sample selection and programming will be different, but compression and EQing layers is pretty universal. Cheers!
