How does that sound?

[Major Mixing @MajorMixing]

Your kick disappears when bass comes in?

You're fighting physics with plugins.

Fix:
→ Sidechain bass to kick
→ Or HP bass at 80Hz, let kick own subs

Stop fighting. Start carving.

"You need $21k monitors for pro mixes"

Just mixed an album on $300 headphones.
Client got signed. Label loved it.

Your ears > your gear. Every time.

"How much to sound professional?"

Less than that plugin you're eyeing.

400+ tracks mixed
Bedroom to 200M+ streams
Same process. Same obsession.

Got a song that deserves better?

Client's bedroom demo:
→ Vocals buried
→ Bass = mud
→ No drum punch

2 weeks later → signed to sync library

Same song. Just mixed properly.

Labels passing on your music? Might not be the song.

Vocal trick that saves mixes:

High-pass 80Hz → automate volume word by word.

10 minutes. Vocal sits perfectly. Zero compression needed.

Try it.

Your master is quiet because of your MIX, not your limiter.

Commercial mixes are built for loudness:
→ Controlled dynamics
→ No rogue transients
→ Bass/kick not fighting
→ Dense midrange

Limiter = 10%. Mix = 90%.

Harsh vocals? Don't just cut 3kHz.

Dynamic EQ > static EQ:

→ Static cut = dull everywhere
→ Dynamic = only tames harsh peaks

TDR Nova (free), band at 2.5-4kHz, -3 to -6dB on peaks only.

Natural tone, controlled harshness.

#vocalmixing

Your reverb sounds cheap because you use presets on everything.

Different elements, different spaces:
→ Vocals: hall 1.5-2.5s
→ Snare: room 0.5-1s
→ Guitars: spring, short

Always high-pass reverb returns at 200-400Hz.

5 signs your mix is ready for mastering:

1. Peaks at -6 to -3dBFS
2. No master bus clipping
3. Low end mono <120Hz
4. Checked on 3+ systems
5. 24hr break, still good

Not ready? We'll tell you what to fix → link in bio

Stop layering kicks for "punch."

You're adding phase problems.

What works:
→ Boost 60-80Hz (sub)
→ Boost 2-4kHz (attack)
→ Fast compression
→ Sidechain everything 2-3dB

One kick, surgical processing > 5 layers.

"Thin vocals" are rarely an EQ problem.

90% come from:
→ Mic too far
→ Wrong polar pattern
→ Room reflections

No plugin fixes bad capture.

400+ mixes taught us:

→ 80% underestimate vocals
→ 70% over-process stems
→ 60% no clear references
→ 50% wait too long to release
→ 100% sound better with pro mixing

Not bias. Math.

Every plugin purchase:

"THIS will be the one"

New compressor → still not right
New EQ → same result
New saturation → maybe warmer?

Plugin #47 won't fix what skill fixes.

You don't need stem mastering.

95% of time stereo master is enough.

Stem mastering is for:
→ Unfixable mix problems
→ Original mixer unavailable
→ Major label budgets

Indie? Stereo master. Save $ for promo.

6 "mix" problems that aren't mix problems:

1. Thin vocals → mic technique
2. Weak drums → wrong samples
3. Muddy bass → arrangement
4. No width → mono sources
5. Harsh highs → over-compression
6. No punch → room reflections

#mixingtips

[Major Mixing @MajorMixing]

Reference tracks — you're using them wrong.

❌ Play, feel bad, keep mixing

✅ Match levels (-14 LUFS)
✅ A/B specific elements
✅ 10 sec bursts
✅ "What's different" not "what's wrong"

[Major Mixing @MajorMixing]

The "louder is better" trap:

Boost bass → better
Boost vocal → better
Boost drums → better

Now clipping and back to square one.

Loudness is relative. Turn DOWN to make things feel UP.

#mixingtips

Overthinking releases:

"Wait for perfect mix?"
"Maybe next month?"
"What if not good enough?"

Meanwhile: worse songs with better sound get playlisted.

Done + professional > perfect + unheard.

Labels hear 3 things in 5 seconds:

1. Vocal clarity — every word understood?
2. Low end — tight or mud?
3. Loudness — commercial level?

Fail one = skip.

Talent ≠ presentation.

Pro mixing fixes that → link in bio

Playlist curators listen on laptop speakers.

Your massive bass? Can't hear it.
Wide synths? Mono.
Quiet intro? Skipped.

Mix must survive worst playback, not best.
