How to create depth in mixing with high level EQ:

Hereā€™s a little psychoacoustic hack that helps when youā€™re going for depth in your mix, but first let me ask you a question.

Imagine youā€™re walking to a rave in a field, whats the first frequency range you can hear?

Yes, itā€™s normally the low end!

This is because bass frequencies are longer, therefore travelling the furthest. So, keep this in mind when youā€™re mixing.

Naturally, our ears think higher frequencies are closer. This means that if you want to put your backing vocals further back in the mix, just remove some of the higher frequencies.

thatā€™s a great tip and a really helpful way of explaining it. once youā€™ve reduced the high end, you can make things louder in the track while still keeping them tucked behind the lead elements. thanks for sharing!

The same reason Iā€™m deessing the crap out of back vox and use compression with fast attack and slow release

Cool example. Interesting (in contrast) to see that Bruce Swedien (Michael Jacksonā€™s engineer) frequently mixed Michaelā€™s background vocals even more present than Michaelā€™s lead vocal. Background doesnā€™t always have to mean , placed in the background. If you only roll off high frequency as in this demonstration, your background vocals will sound muddy as in this demonstration. Also point of note is increased low frequencies are also an indication of being closer to the source. (Refer to Equal Loudness Contours/Fletcher Munson curves). Everything affects everything. (Streaky, Iā€™ve been a genuine fan for a long time. I know there are time constraints on these, but some videos the past year+ could potentially be steering the more novice in the audience to more questions than answers on some of these.)

With something like a choir I have to do the opposite. In order to set them back 50 feet if they were recorded on single mics, I have to manage rolling out the low end. All recordings from the 40s and 50s for example can sound pretty far away like on a stage and they have a lot more midrange than low end. Likely rolling out lows and highs more than boosting them. For effect itā€™s a cool tip. As you said, a spatial, hack. Like in a transitional part. At the same time, I do 100% obviously agree about low end being the longest and permeating the furthest.

Iā€™d recommend Distance 3 by Air Windows. It uses Discontinuity to simulate how sound travels through air. Results are a loss in high frequency, but also how the air breaks up as the decibels increase; like a rocket ship as it travels away will crackle.

Too true,my head has been obsessed with frequencies of all kinds.frequency is how often something repeats.anyway,nice&clear cheers

One question sir, to make the backing vocals more in the back... Shoould we cut down the higher freq (like over 6k) with a sharp band.. or decrease the freq with the Shelf band the way you did in this video, what is better?

I thought bass travelled further because it doesnā€™t reflect back of obstacles it reaches, it just goes through them. Like when you hear a neighbours music the treble is stuck inside and the bass walks off
