Hi. Ive been making music for a long time and Im happy with where Im at with it BUT I have never seemed to be able to get a handle on low/sub bass lines. Im now in a position where I have 5 or 6 tracks im very happy with and they’re all essentially finished except I just want to fill out the bass content nicely with a sub bass.
The main problems I always run into and have no idea how to deal with are:
-Some notes boom and others just don’t resonate whatever you do to them. do I just leave it like that? or do I start changing the gain of each note… it still doesn’t work anyway
-When trying to get the levels right I don’t know if I should be hearing the bass clearly or if it should be low enough that I cant tell its there…or any level in between. when I try and add harmonics it sounds like guff
Its really so frustrating to have no idea what Im doing and everything I try I don’t know if Im improving the sound or not. Any solid advice/knowledge would be much appreciated
