Echo Sound Works - Low End Masterclass TUTORIAL

The low end of any mix, especially in EDM and Hip Hop, can be really difficult to get right.

It’s also one of the more important elements of any mix. Echo Sound Works brings you a course that covers all things low end.

From acoustical treatment to mixing tips and tricks. To efficiently tackle this difficult topic, we are going to break up the limited low end space into three distinct zones and discuss how each one is important to the collective low end in any mix.

ZONE 1 - Power/Rumble 25-50 Hertz - This is the sub bass frequency zone. One of the hardest frequency spectrums to get right.

ZONE 2 - Punch - 50-115 Hertz - This is the range that adds the “punch” to the low end. This is for basses and kicks.

ZONE 3 - Smack - 120 - 500 Hertz - This is the high end of the low end equation. Things like basses, snares, guitars, synths etc. can all live in this range.
