would have loved to see you go more into your routing of the sub groups, the vcas make sense but was totally lost once you expanded down and scrolled through all the routing

Really interesting to see the process and how organized it is. Got to say that the tune isn't anywhere near to my taste, but it's educational anyway :)

Women will play the biggest role in helping usher in a police state. All the state has to do is promise financial security, and they'll bite.

HEY DIDNT HAVE THE PLASURE OF WORKING WITH YOU BUT ONE DAY GOD WILLING I WILL YOUR GREAT MAN LOVE THE SOUND GOD BLESS

It takes time to master your voice practice practice practice learn learn learn 😊

This is one of the best mixing videos I've seen. The information and explanation were so clear and it can be applied to any mix on any DAW. Thanks

is this song out ?

A little bit of reverb never hurt nobody.

Good song and mix but the duck made me laugh every time.

I’m a beginner at mixing and mastering. Could you elaborate what hot keys, routing and signal flow is?

So level matching is an option

This guy speaks like a person not like a person who think he isn't a person.

respectfully, it seems like the hats disappear a bit in the final mix before the mastering section. is this my headphones?

You raw!!!!

There is a certain presence when recording that inspires someone immediately, even before they start their work. David is definitely my most influential person in that regards. I mix classical music, and orchestra, with some in pop and indie and folk, but not Hip Hop, Rap and R&B, and David gave such insight to how something is just glued together with that industry standard. Thank you for posting this iZotope!

The beat is so freakin fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥..bouncy af...vocals are fine. Could be better.

What i learned about mixing vocals in this video is that 80% of the mxing is done by the the perfectly treated room and outboard compressor and EQs

Legend says he's still clutching on 40 dollars

David totally killed this. Great job. That 808 is just awful though.

114

🔥

fire

한국분이시라는게 정말 반갑고도 믿기지가 않습니다. 정말 멋져요 먼 타지에서 그렇게 성공하실수 있다는게!!! 많이 늦었지만ㅜㅜ 그레미상 받으신거 축하드리고 더좋은곡 믹스많이 부탁드립니다.
저도 한국에서 늦게 배운 믹스를 하고있는데 데이비드 킴 인터뷰영상보고 힘얻어갑니다. 화이팅 감사합니다.

I'd advise eq the input to reverbs, high-pass (300Hz) and low-pass (5kHz)

This is by far the best mixing video that I've ever watched and left actually understanding the concepts behind the decisions of the engineer. Awesome stuff 👏🏼 👌 👍🏽

Video and track was 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Great progression from psychological gems to technical ones. What an ad for the iZotope suite which I'm already using but definitely not leaving it now haha. Delivered in such a chilled way 🤙🏼

Do you do gain staging when you receive these beats? Do you use a vu meter ?

I've been making beats for 17 yrs. and I don't mix my beats and I don't know why. I know how to mix, I just adjust my levels and arrange them.

Good

Hi I need someone to mix my song on my channel. [ysabel karaoke song] anyone ?????

Fantastic work on that Nipsey record. It just hits different, the music and the production. I felt that after the first 20 seconds of listening to it. Thanks for that! Great pick for the series iZotope!

Strange sidestory:

Nas made me become a fan of hiphop, too. After that I listened to a lot of great music, but sometime at the end of the 90ies, the ship kind of sailed for me and I got stuck on those artists. The love just wasn't the same any more. I only got excited once for music again for a short period listening to 50 Cent and Papoose. Those 2 were different. Since then I listened to thousands of songs and artists, but nothing really caught on for about a decade until I heard "Racks in the Middle". That song stood out, the sound stood out, too. There was that feel again, that I thought would probably never come back again. David Yungin Kim hit that vibe and and I'm still listening to Nipsey every day. To me the guy is one of the greats.

What's the artist and name of the song?

Love from India ❤️

great

Very inspirational! Lots of good info! Thank you David and iZotope!

Always fire 🔥 Izotope plug-ins are my go to on most if not all mixes.

Nice one bro I'm ur big fan from Nigeria watching ur tuturial all time

think that all theses process could fit very nice with high quality studio vocals, drums, but when we talk bout home studio, we already know that u should need more process to make sound good, very nice tutorial btw🔥

👍👋❤️

thank you so much man. thx to isotope for the opportunity to learn <3

Hey dude, even that hip hop is not the genre of music that I affectionate a lot, this is dope man!!! I'm seeing this musical universe way differently now. Thanks and keep up the excellent work. Greetings from Mauritius

There are so many steps missing. For example the balance, the gain stagin and... what he started from to make those settings. It is an interesting video but it could have been even more so if it had shown all the steps rather than turning on and off settings that it had done previously.
