if ya need any clarification on this, just post a reply, i'll try and get to as soon as possible....
Click on your kick(or whatever instrument you are putting into mixer), and in the upper right hand corner of the window that pops up is where you assign it to a channel in your mixer....by default the kick is in spot one in the mixer, but you can move it to whatever spot you want......
then what you wanna do is open the mixer window....click on track one (or wherever your instrument is) in the mixer....then on the right hand side of the mixer window is where you assign all your effects.....
click on the drop windows on the left side of the mixer and a bunch of effects should pop up....
what you are gonna wanna do is select a 6 band equalizer.....it should be something like fruity parametric......
you are gonna wanna pull out all or most of the highs out....the frequencies for that are anything 250 and above, so you can go ahead and pull the sliders all or most of the way down to your liking.....
the frequencies you want to remain are like 60, 90, and maybe 110....
by default the frequencies are gonna be 90, 250, and 500
you can change them with the knobs underneath each number.....
once you get the right frequencies you want go ahead and raise the sliders up a bit until you hear that bang you are looking for.....
you can do this with any instrument you want....you just have to know which frequencies to take out of the mix and which ones to raise....
the easiest way to find which frquencies you need to work with is to get a spectral analyzer, put it on the same track you are equalizing....that will show you which frequencies are active.....
i personally have the waves mercury bundle, which has tons of different VST effects to mix your stuff with, including some nice equalizers, compressors, an analyzer,and much much more....
so before going any further trying to mix, i would definitely pick up the mercury waves bundle....
then in FL Studio, you are gonna wanna open the mixer window and go to where you would select your effect, but click on more, then click on fast refresh, you will see an assload of new effects, click all of them to make them active......
now you have an analyzer and you will be able to see where each frequency is....
that concludes this part on my tutorial.....
look forward to next time...
