Hello,
I am new to mixing, I am wondering if anyone has any tips for mixing bass and Kick in contrast to vocals??
Bass and Kick seems to always be my confusion!
The song I am trying to mix is pretty sparse in actuality but it is coming off in the mix as crowded. Its crowding out the vocals.
Is the bass usually kept in the center?
Generally Should the Bass and Kick be panned together in the same area ?
Is it a good idea to have the bass and kick be down the center with the vocals?
In the case of this song I am mixing, The vocals are melodic.
The bass line is very in line with the kick, it is not a melodic bass line, it is more of a punchy and accented bass line much like a walking bass line and the bass hits every kick. Medium to slow tempo with a 1 2 beat (kick snare kick snare)
Boom snare boomboom snare boomboom snare boombboom tomtomtom
Boom snare boomboom snare boomboom snare boomboom tomtomtom
The song has a walking feeling .
