Hi everybody!

Does anyone know how to stretch samples? I mean, if i have a sample playing 1/8 note and i want to stretch it a bit so it can play quarter or half note for example without affecting the sound itself, how can i do it? "I'm using FL studio"

Try Audio Technica m50x, i have a pair of them and they're truly the best thing i've ever had + they're made for monitoring so they're flat and have great frequency response.

Try and ensure your lowest sub bass note is peaking around 41.20hz which is E1, each frequency is assigned a note, not to get technical, but club systems would have to be the best systems on the planet to pick up below that. Remember sub is meant to be felt, however... it seems to me you are layering and using the sub as the main bass lead, in that case refer to my article I wrote here http://phatmonkey.me/#xl_xr_page_bass <-- Where it mentions about duplicating bass forget that, as you do not want to duplicate the sub, instead leave the sub as is, just duplicate the other bass layer your using and follow the tutorial from there....
I'm actually playing 1 subbass in F4 and 3 layers of bass

Hi everyone!

I'm having some problems in mixing the bassline with the sub-bass. I usually put a high pass filter on the bass around the 150-200 hz range and cut the highs and mids in the sub "don't know if this is right but the it sounds good" the problem is that sometimes the bass sounds too weak. How can i get the bassline to sound strong and driving without getting a muddy mix?
I would suggest high-cutting your sub above 130- 150 hz.
For a powerful sub, just take sylenth. Take a sine or square, 1 voice with retrig on. slap on some sausage fattener and apply the eq. thats literally all there is too a good sub.
Thank you man, will give this a try!

Can you render an example of what you hear so we can get a better idea of what you're working with?
Here you go, started working on this two days ago and i literally did nothing but working on the low end and, as you can hear, it's so far from being ok https://soundcloud.com/mohanad303/untitled-1/s-pB3wo

For me the bass is kind of the voice of the low end, its supposed to be heard so its got to be more present so maybe not filter it as much. The sub bass is the feeling part of it. You don't hear it but its the rumbling that the subs give out. If its sounding weak might be that you just cut too much of the bass portion off. that or your bass patch has some aspect of a sub bass in it too which might muddy things up a bit.
Yes my bass samples have some subby frequencies on them so sometimes i try using a low shelf instead of cutting but there's no big difference

As I posted in the "EQUING the kick" thread - treat your room first (acoustically - bass traps for example) and it will help you make better decisions on that.
I'm not mixing with monitors, i'm using Audio Technica m50x
