Sure, you’re making room with the side chain but they still need to exist together in the track and the sidechaining and release of the kick essentially work as a crossfade between the sub and kick sounds. They’re still competing for space in the mix… in some cases you might not need much eq, some cases you will, really depends on your sidechain settings and sounds you’re using.
Cheers, Nate. I’m getting close on this one. Been making my own track while also making this one using the same principles. I have to say I had no idea how much work goes into a Progressive track! FYI to others, this tune just went up on Beatport. Nate, I’m actually using it as one of the reference tracks for my tune in this tutorial. 
Hi guys,
I’m close to being done with my version of this project (in the final mix stages). I’m curious if any others have built their own version from scratch? In my case, I basically worked through the tutorial, but did my own melodies and a few other differences. Is there any place where we could post links to our mixes for peer review and feedback? (maybe even teacher feedback?)
any chance we can get the cubase skin preset?
It looks so awesome!
Its not really a preset or skin, just go to your appearance settings… I just changed all the default blue to a really dark grey. Also, I set up different colors for my VU meters… also done in the appearance settings tab.
Absolutely awesome series. This has really helped me put into perspective the idea of 3 dimensional mixing. Even though I’ve always known that reverb creates space this has really helped me pin point what should be sitting in the front and or further back.
Love the bass pattern on this track too. Really cool stuff. Thanks a lot Nate and thanks Sonic Academy!!
Hi Nate,
Is there any chance you could let me know where to find the Acid Overflow Arp preset that you used in this tutorial please?
Thanks!
love your work Nate! But did I hear you say “time to get crack again”? Lol (in video 8).
Could anyone tell me?
I am not good at listening to English
Where can I get voice samples such as Plotoculture - Cygnus One used in video 10
Hey
The files and resources for this course are included in the project files.
Thank you for your reply.
I’m sorry.I didn’t mean it to sound like that.
What I wanted to know is how the producers get the voice samples.
For example,is the samples made by recording,or is it downloading from some website?
The samples that I mainly is a short speech and voice sample commonly used for psychedelic trance , trance tracks, etc.
I’m glad if you tell me.
Try some of these packs on our store -
Hope this helps
I’m not going through the video to double check but I’m pretty sure no… lol. Probably time to get cracking.

Hey… I record of lost of vocal samples myself like Aphalt, also my track Music is More than Mathematics. That demo Cygnus One you’re referring to on my soundcloud I grabbed from some random documentary on youtube. Generally speaking though you’d need to get permission or clear the sample with the copyright holder before releasing anything like that though formally.
I use software called Audiohijack on mac to route an audio signal from anything in your OS (like a web browser, mic input, system audio etc.) and capture it in a wav file.
Pretty sure it was from the bundled Sylenth1 3.0 library. I’ll have to double check… I recreated the midi though anyways for the other layers so should be easy enough to achieve a similar sound with any sort of 303 sounding patch.
I think I’ve learned a lot. Thank you very much!
Just a little note that I noticed when going back over these videos. In video 3 around 16:00, you put the Pro-C comp on the kick. You enabled the sidechain eq and slid the high pass eq section up. You spoke about how it will now only compress the high section. I believe that is incorrect as the sidechain eq there is only used to determine when to trigger the compression-not which part of the signal to compress…in other words the Pro C2 isn’t multiband (though it does seem like it could be used in a MS way where if you had the low end of the kick as mid then you could compress just the side part of the signal, but you’d need a m/s plug in there to do that. Pro-C2 is crazy deep!
a lot of videos are offline
Hi - it’s a amazon web services issue - lots of sites experiencing problems at the moment. Should be back to normal soon
