Now you’ll see those frequencies duck when the kick hits. Simply turn the Volume knob, located next to the Base knob, to the left in Peak Controller.

However, you’ll notice the slider is increasing instead of decreasing, which is the opposite of what you want. Now when you play the project, you’ll see the low shelf slider moves whenever the kick plays. Paste that setting onto the Peak Controller’s Base knob by right-clicking and selecting Paste Value on the Base knob. Right-click low shelf slider again and select Copy Value. Go to the Internal Controller drop-down menu and select “Peak Ctrl – Peak.” The two plugins are now linked together. You’ll see a window pop up called Remote Control Settings. Usually, the low shelf will work just fine. In that case, you’ll want to right-click the Frequency knob instead. Right-click on the low shelf slider and select “Link To Controller.” Alternatively, you can change the low shelf to a low cut or high pass instead. Now, load Parametric EQ 2 on your bass track.

Be sure to click Mute at the bottom left corner and then unmute it again to be able to hear the kick playing. In FL Studio, this can be achieved with Fruity Peak Controller.įirst, you’ll want to add Peak Controller to your kick drum. In order to do this, you need sidechain EQ instead of compression. Instead, you might want to simply lower the volume of specific frequencies that the bass and kick share so that you can still hear the bass playing when the kick hits. However, some might find this to be too dramatic of an effect.
