How To Mix Trap Beats In Reason 10
Full Mix and Master at the end of the video!!
In This Video I am going to go through the process of mixing a beat in Propellerhead Reason Version 10!
Tips In This Video Include:
1. Loop a section that has all or most of the sounds in the beat
2. Mix low to high
3. Set all faders to the lowest point, and add volume from lowest point
4. Cut frequencies instead of boosting
5. Use Pan to give your sounds room to flourish
6. Level everything according to the genre: Trap has heavy kicks and snares, and the 808 is a key sound!
7. Shy away from compressors and limiters for now, we will use those in the mastering stage.
8. Give yourself a lot of headroom. You should be able to mix with your monitor or headphone low. You should not need a lot of volume at first.
9. Give your ears a rest, do not mix too many beats or projects in one session!
10. Always use all of your senses when mixing. How does the bass feel coming out of the monitor? Listen to the music; can you hear every sound coming in clearly? Look at the eq analyzers and the fader knobs. Does it look like it makes sense? Are the fader positions matching the sound that is coming out? Hopefully your studio doesn't smell like you never leave it, and keep a tasty beverage handy!
When mixing, a producer or engineer should work on getting everything leveled and remove any frequencies that are not being occupied.
Make space for sounds and help them sit in the pocket by removing tones and using the stereo field.
