When you start playing higher up the neck, your fundamental will rise beyond your crossover point and lose its power. Be careful with any "one size fits all" process.

I'm a guitar player and this is one of the best mixing tips I've come across for bass. Everyone treats bass in metal as "bass lmao." I've been learning bass for the past year after being a guitarist for 10 years. Bass is boss 100%
-
Wow. I've done crossovers wrong for years. For some reason my brain said "the crossover has to touch" and not leave a huge gap in the frequency spectrum. No wonder I could never achieve that "hollow" sounding bass I've been striving for.
-
Man I've been using this trick for a while now, it's really helpful, I don't use quad track for guitars anymore, the bass always cuts through the mix like a charm.
-
ufff amazing tutorial!!! at first I thought splitting the bass in that way sounded awful, but when you played the entire mix it sounded so amazing and detailed! Thanks for the great tips!
-
Don't get me wrong, I love the splitting technique and will definitely play around with it. But now I know why my bass disappears every time somebody mixes one of my songs! I play more of a 60's/70's style, and my bass comes alive in the low mids, like 300hz. This is the same issue I have with modern kick drum mixes where they take it down to 2 ingredients - sub + click, and take out all of the "whompiness". Great video though, I definitely got some ideas from it.
-
This is brilliant! Many thanks. Bass guitar is by far my biggest headache to mix. Can't wait to try this out tonight! I already know it's going to help.
-
Thanks, Miami! This is a great video! I saw tons of bass-tone-videos, but noone explained that thing!!!
-
I love these videos. I feel like I learn something new every time and my mixes have been greatly improving thanks to utilizing a lot of these techniques. Great content! Keep it up!
-
Mix tutorials with the best vibe! Reaper users don't need to duplicate the track, you can create a new track and make a send PRE-FX to the new one. This way if you realize during mixing that "oh goshdarnit, this part must be edited" you don't need to juggle two bass tracks.
-
I have never thought about processing a bass like this… definitely gonna be incorporating this many areas
-
You don't understand how valuable this video was for me. It has cleared my mixes up 1000% 😄
-
Dude, I have to do a whole new project setup! There are too many new things that I learn thanks to you.
-
One of your best ones so far, Miami. Keep it up!
-
this is really a lightbulb moment for me. thank you so much 👍🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
-
Miami, you are amazing. I love your jokes, your knowledge, and your vibe. Keep it up!
-
This is Pure Gold!!!! thank you Miami!!!
-
Great tips, Miami! Thanks!!!!!
-
Great technique and very well explained! I've been using this technique for a while now but picked up some new nuggets of info here. Thank You! Btw- airwindows has a free plug in called Bass Drive which works well for distortion and runs perfectly in Reaper.

finally how to set the crossover. I have both bus glue and rex brown bass from JST. This has me rethinking some things. I think i asked how to set the crossover awhile ago. Thanks for the content.
