Hi,
I'd appreciate it if you could listen to this track and give me some feedback on it.

Thank you for your time.
Have a nice day!

So I have been producing for 2 years and I wanna know how I can make my tracks loud.
For a bit,I was using AOM limiter and pushing a lot on it,but there was a sort of noise produced in the kick,as if the kick's release time was increased.The noise sounds a bit like the lower peaks of the kick that getting really nasty after the limiting.
How can I go past this and How do you make your tracks Loud?
Please explain briefly.

If it's a pitch shift,  you can play the note and stop, but continue the pitch automation for that entire section.

lucky date has a tutorial out there about this where he automates with an envelop.

The problem is that it's a bounced out audio of 8 bar riser. Have to just try slicing.

A few days ago,I put my track Chemicals on Soundcloud,and I'd appreciate it if you had a listen and let me know what you think of it.
You can listen to it here:



Thank you for your time.
Have a good day!

If I were to explain in terms of Reverb and Delay,I would say that you imagine a room.And the more wet you make a sound in terms of Reverb and Delay,the more reflections will that sound have in that room.
You might want to consider Reverbs and Delays as a last resort though,because these effects can effect their space in the mix.
Using Compression and adjusting Fader levels can give you a Deeper Mix.
I think it's mentioned above that you should cut high frequencies to make it deep.The explanation for that being that lower frequencies have more energy,and hence travel longer distances as compared to higher frequencies.In simple words,cutting high frequencies can provide the sound more energy for it to be audible at deeper levels of the Mix.
Hope this helps.

the big djs get their tracks sent to professional mastering, guys with like 20+ years experience of mastering

if you check out joe la porta, he does all the mastering for the big djs who want their tracks on us radio, tiesto armin, above & beyond, I've seen his discography

so dw about that, just work on your mixdowns and layering, it just has to sound good enough on soundcloud

with leads and layering I've seen drops with up to 10 layers+ of leads, believe me

That's what I mean.A lot of projects,the drops are over 6-8 layers,rarely even 10.Becomes hard to eq.

What makes sounds pop out more are that they have their own defined frequency range.2 or more instruments having the same instruments doesn't make your mix muddy,cause in dance music,it's almost impossible to give each sound it's own specific frequencies,although it is possible to give it it's own specific frequency range.
Easiest way,choose a low lead layer,mid layer,and a high and probably a buzzy top lead.Layering the same sort of sounds playing the same notes and then putting a harsh eq on it would not only sound bad,the more you cut,will make it thinner to the ears.So choose layers wisely.
Eq layers separately,and together as a group as well.
Also a cool trick that I use,is after I've dealt with low and muddy frequencies(which I consider to be between 250 to 500Hz).
I use a multiband compressor to balance frequency content.
Also,if you're having trouble eqing correctly,look up for a PITCH FREQUENCY Chart and use them.
How I use the pitch frequency chart is,I put a low cut and enter a frequency value off the chart,depending on key of track,to the low cut.If I think I can cut more,I enter a higher value.If it happens to sound like I've cut too much,I bring the cut down to the last value in key and use shelf.Shelves are the most underrated tools in an eq.Unless you're using it to its extremes,the overall all sound will not be Changed too much,but when you listen to it with the other instruments playing,you'll definitely have made space for sounds in that frequency range.

Just a quick fix for correlation.
But this involves Izotope Ozone
I don't know if 5 has this but 6 does.
You just load up the ozone imager and go to options and there will be something like prevent antiphase by width.But this will only help if you're just out of phase.
If you're too much out of phase,this won't work.
