I know how to make a sidechain but I dont know how to sidechain in relation to another instrument (It would be like an auto-process?)

http://flskins.com/tutorials/2-ways-sidechain-fl-studio

Yes I listen all kind of professional songs and maybe because they have "radio edit" or something the bass does not make noises in my speakers.

About tutorials, tried a lot but all still depends on monitoring it seems.

what monitoring do you have? depending on the diameter of your cone, and other factors as well, it may or may not have the ability to produce the frequencies you are looking for. Take this chart for example

https://www.decks.co.uk/siteimages/krk/VXT8-FREQUENCY-RESPONSE.jpg

find the one for your monitors and see what the roll off is for the low bands (80hz and below) if it has a very sharp Q into negative DB then your monitors are pretty average to not good.

can you post links to reference examples so i can hear what bass noise you are referring to?

Tried to upload examples as attachments but it looks like is not working.

use soundcloud... easier and faster than having to dl mp3's.

Thanks. I can get cool headphones but the music always sounds perfect using them. For example the bass, kick, snare. When I try the song with speakers they make noise like too much low pitched or something.

Also sometimes with the headphones is difficult to differentiate if one frequency is blocking another, for example if one instrument lowers the volume of another, because you need speakers for that.

there is a spectrum analyzer inside of fruity loops, use that to see a visual of the frequencies. When an instrument (Bass in this example) lowers the volume of another it is because there is already too much going on within the mix. Clean up unnecessary frequencies by sweeping through them one by one. here is a good reference sheet - http://howtomakeelectronicmusic.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/FM_clubmix_dsktp.jpg -

With headphones it will sound cool even if I use a "limiter" in the master.

try working in low volumes, stay away from working loud unless you are in a properly treated room. Unless you want waves bouncing all over the place. If you use a limiter it should be to prevent any clipping (although with proper headroom you shouldnt really worry about that).

I took a listen to the clips off of my macbook speakers, and i could tell you right away you are boosting the hi's way too much. Like I mentioned, start looking at a spectrum if you are not sure due to poor monitoring, you can never be wrong with math!

to make room for your kick drum, sidechain it with whatever elements you want the kick to cut through in the mix. There are other advanced alternatives but try sidechaining first. Consider using some light parallel compression on it as well.

are you using other songs as reference? or how do u come to the conclusion that the mixes aren't good?

also look up dave pensado on youtube, he has plenty of tutorials on how to fix shit with mixing, I learned a ton off of him.

I wouldn't be surprised if Samsung was behind all of these videos, after all they, and all other competitors, have been effortlessly advertising against the iPhone... Lets face it, Apple IS the best.. I don't strive to have everything new apple has to offer, but I do own a variety of their products because it is way more convenient to my every day living and workflow. I currently own a mac pro desktop (which I'm looking to sell fyi ) a macbook pro retina, Apple TV, iPad retina, a Cinema Display and a 5s. I buy all my movies through iTunes now, which can be accessed by any of my devices through the iCloud unless I download them into it. Any time I travel I always have my iPad for entertainment I can reply to emails from 20k feet in the air without having to whip out my laptop. My Cinema Display features plug and play for my laptop, which is amazing, My soundcard and midi are plugged in directly into it making access to my studio a piece of cake; Walk in plug the cables into my laptop close it and start working. AirDrop is one of the best features most don't know about. When I am on the road I can order pickup, Uber, ticketless check-in at airport, Send stems to master via dropbox and so on, directly from my 5s. Now that Apple Pay will come into effect pfff. Although I can agree that there is a small amount of people who buy to have the new hotness, your interpretation of Apple being a shiny useless box with a big price tag is not true.

being a huge Vincent Jackson fan I would love to see bucs take the win, but I don't trust J. McClown enough for a comfortable W vs @ATL and they also have a handful of injuries in the D. Last season the Galcons took the W, I think they will again this season IMHO.

I dont mind having either player on our team. However, can you elaborate on how Alex's skill level was determined by the admins considering he has NEVER connected to a Wallfly server? (fact based off of Quadz reply).

We will try to find a suitable replacement for you, but if you know of someone who wants to play, let me know so I can discuss it with the other admins. 

Reefer said he would play on my team.
