How do I make my bass sound better in FL Studio?
Cut the sub above 60Hz or so, and cut the regular bass below 60-100Hz (depending on the sound). This should give you a smooth fuller sound and remove muddying the bass as well as giving more ‘room’ for the bass sound at the rest of its frequency so you can also mix it louder (if you want that).
How do you make a sub bass line?
Double the Bass Line with Another Instrument One of the most obvious ways to make your sub-bass melodies audible is to just double the melody with another instrument that cuts through the mix.

How loud should my sub-bass be?
