Today we walk through the entirety of vocal mixing, surprise! Most of the listen is about volume automation, reverbs, and stereo placement. Sometimes I think we put too much emphasis on vocal chains, when there's a bunch of other stuff that really effects the audibility of a vocal.
In this complete mixing tutorial, we go through everything you need to know if you're a beginner just starting out :)

You're literally the best. These tutorials do so much for beginners who know how to use their DAW but don't know so much about production. Also you're interacting with your community is just wholesome. Keep up the good work!

I found your channel while looking up mic reviews, but these mixing videos have really encouraged me to give it a go myself. I've learned a lot! I really appreciate all the effort you put into these, man!

Oh my gosh you just made my day, thank you so much for saying this. Thats my whole strategy haha. Lure you in with gear and then try and teach!!
It's interesting to hear the difference. Fox's vocals sounds like it's on top or above the instruments. Haze's vocals sound like like it's sitting inside the instruments. In a good way
Goodness, Ricky. I'm an utter fan of your mixing style, taste, skill or whatever is at play here. Absolutely love your version of the song, and love the way you walk us through your thoughts and decisions in your mixing process. Really hope more mixing videos are in the pipeline!

Ive been watching your vids since about one week and been binge watching all of them, i believe your channel is the most "to the point" channel out there for music. Severely underrated and deserves way more recognition, you drop a lot of nuggets of info and knowledge. Hope you get waay more viewers in the next months! Saludos from spain.

Thank you. There are a lot of "KZreadrs" that do mic reviews and audio stuff and they are talking out of their back when it comes to audio. They can't tell the different between a good or bad audio signal.

What would be the equivalent of a routing folder in Ableton? Should I just group all the backing tracks and add the processing on that group or does the routing folder your talking about in Protools send the processing to each track separately somehow?

Big fan from Mexico. I usualy have the izotope vocal doubler in the background vocals if I don't feel I have enough takes but you mention chorus for stereo image, can you go a little more deep into it?
@AudioHaze
2 жыл бұрын
I would love to! Yeah vocal doubling can have amazing results, rather than doing it via plug in. You do have to be a very good singer though, capable of duplicating the same vocal take very similarly

very interested to hear this mix in mono. Perhaps focus your next video on that topic? I think stereo is kinda dying (not counting headphones since they are not true stereo)
@AudioHaze

Interesting! Why do you think stereo is dying? Because of binaural audio or because of something else?
not sure if he was doing a hi-pass radio effect on purpose, but this is like night and day, this is what separates good mix from bad, in my opinion. And lots of indie people, myself included made this mistake, but slowly a few of us learn. You can see what I mean with my own music, earlier songs are not as clear when it comes to vocals or they are too clear and jarring, later on I learned a few tricks, still learning, but vids like this really help.
How can I send you a song? :)
The mix sounds great, though I prefer a little less compression.
