"So the most common use of the EQ that I actually use to make a mix work that really wouldn't work is just pulling down the bass of the record that you are currently playing, because it just makes them forget the beats even there, give or take. So I'm going to show you that this makes works are great with the bass there where we were listening. We have that record going, we had that record going before. I find my new record. This is with the bass intact. Try to throw it in. It was OK. It worked alright. But we're going to do it with the bass down, it's going to work better. Find your record, find your beat. There's your beat. Move it in the middle, ready to throw it. We're going to move down our bass. We're getting a little ambient. We're getting a little baleric. Throw in your record. Smoother. There was no conflict of speed, no conflict of bass. They're into it. Going good."
