Kick & Bass Relationship


Getting the kick and bass to work well together is one of the largest challenges of any production, mix or master. In a song where the bass is very powerful and has a long tail, you need a kick sample that compliments the sound rather than conflicting with the sound. ⁣

In this example, the kick sample is very short and punchy. These characteristics help it stay out of the way of the bass. If the kick had a long tail or a heavy low-end the two channels would compete for the same space and the sounds would become a confused mess. If you’re making a track with a long and heavy bass channel, chose a short and punchy kick. If you’ve got a long and heavy kick sample, go for a shorter punchier bass.⁣
