Native Instruments' Komplete is a huge collection of instruments and effects but did you know it actually contains some amazing mix plugins? That's right - it's not just vast sample libraries and cool synths, Komplete provides everything you need to mix your tracks as well. In this course, legendary producer Olav Basoski brings out the big guns - starting with the workhorse Solid EQ.
Komplete 201: Komplete's Mixing Plugins
In this short video from the course Komplete 201: Komplete's Mixing Plugins, Olav loads up the Solid EQ onto a fat house beat and proceeds to show you how to use its controls to shape and sculpt the sound with the four bands, switching between the G and E series models.
Experimenting with frequencies, Olav is able to blend the elements of the beat together, shaping the kick so that it complements the rest of the loop. He also tries different Q settings to show how the width of an EQ band can affect its behaviour. It's not just beats either - this EQ is great when used on any sound source! Check out the rest of the videos in the course for a comprehensive guide to all the mix plugins that come with Komplete.
