lies in a synth pattern, you can go right
back to the source and add layers in the
form of an extra oscillator or even another
instrument to supply the low-end grunt.
Whatever you are using to beef things up
there may need to be processing applied to
keep dynamics in check and lightly boost or
cut specific areas of each layer. When doing
this you need to tread carefully to ensure
you retain clarity and focus.
Multi-band compression can be ideal for
targeting dynamic issues and can allow you
to boost the lower frequencies of a sound
whilst leaving the rest untouched. M/S
processing will also help you create a mono
bass mix and again leave the rest of the
frequency range unaffected. All of your
processed layers can then be fed into a
universal bass group and treated as one
entity. This will add further cohesion and
allow you to create another layer of control.
The last resort
If all of this fails or you just have an
incredible urge to add lots of deep bass
without the work, you can resort to
enhancers and sub bass processors. These
aren’t really the ideal solution but can work
wonders in the right setting.
Whichever route you choose, you should
find that any of these solutions will give you
low-end that you can ultimately control and
that results in a fuller deeper mix with no
negative side effects.
