4. Stacking Synth Basses

一对夫妇贝司合成器补丁开槽听起来惊人了耳机,但只要你听到了两种相互竞争的补丁打在彼此相同的频率范围的顶部,在俱乐部的音箱,甚至录音室监听,你可能会听到什么,但低音。尝试,而不是第二个低音拔毛,或领导风格的补丁。这将让你的低音在正确的地方,同时还为您提供一些很酷的中档伴奏。

Good things to keep in mind, for sure!

#2 is not necessarily true with the right headphones — in fact due to proximity and tightness, you may actually reap the rewards of more accurate bass in headphones. In my case, it's a necessity due to hearing impairment with speaker positioning. I know this is atypical but it's my great comfort.

The sub-bass on the now-discontinued-but-too-awesome Sony MDR-XB700 is phenomenal and generous without being flabby. For anyone skeptical, I implore you to check out a pair for yourself.

Also re: #11, yeah, technical skills shouldn't overshadow the song itself. Contrasts within a track can be very powerful — such as a light/minimal intro leading up to an intense and dense climax. Another simple thing to do is, if your mix is too crowded and you don't want to simply disable certain tracks, well, just tremendously soften them. It's intriguing how these "shadows" still have a presence in the final mix. Even if they're barely heard... they can still be felt!

I agree with all stated, but I really appreciate #2 RE: Bass mix in headphones. Your comment is a confirmation to a personal experience. My mix seemed great in my Seinheiser Headphones, but when I played the song via my trucks sound sys., the low-end/floor caused distortion. Nice article, clear and true.
