Most mixes don’t have a “chorus lift” because the verse is already too big, so when the chorus arrives… nothing feels different. In this video, I’ll show you 4 simple techniques to make your metal choruses sound HUGE (without adding more plugins) by creating size, width, level, and energy exactly where it matters. What you’ll learn in this episode: ✅ 1) Arrangement & layering: how to stack extra guitar and vocal layers in the chorus so it feels bigger than the verse ✅ 2) Verse guitar width: why narrowing your rhythm guitars slightly in the verse (around 75–80% L/R) makes the chorus feel wider ✅ 3) Mix bus automation: how dropping the verse by ~1 dB makes the chorus lift and feel louder without crushing your mix ✅ 4) “Drum smash” parallel compression: how to automate a massive parallel drum bus only in the chorus for instant impact and excitement 00:34 Arrangement 02:46 Guitar Width 04:05 Verse Level Automation 05:09 Parallel Drum Crush 07:06 Final A B and Recap 08:08 Next Steps These are the same types of moves you’ll hear in modern metal mixes... tight verses, huge choruses, and a clear jump in energy when the hook hits. If you want your mixes to translate like a record (tight low end, wide guitars, clear vocals, big choruses), I’m currently taking on a few more mixing projects.
