We can tell you’re an artist, not just another mix engineer which is why I subscribed

It's so nice to see how your enthusiasm takes over as soon as you play the whole bunch of layers together! 🙂

Yo man, I just came across this right now and I gotta say: I came to see what you had to say, I stayed for your energy! You’re a lot of fun! Personally, I know these techniques and what you’re teaching in this segment, but I don’t care! This was fun! Hope to see more of your stuff come across my way 👊🏼 good job explaining why the layers matter

This was a nice breakdown really proved your point how it brings the vocals to life. You’re a very good audio engineer👍

Yo this video just gave me the confidence to keep working on music. This summer I started recording myself without researching how to do so, and I've legitimately been doing everything stated in this video. Thank you and keep being ELECTRIC.

I used to layer the same vocals 1 panned left and another to the right and it used to turn out real bad. So this one is a master class. Really appreciate the hardwork you put in these videos and those vocals damn❤️🙌🙌

EXCELLENT information. I've been putting out songs for a couple years and NO ONE has really explained this in over 1,000 music related videos I've studied. Kudos.

"ISN'T THAT ELECTRIC?!" got my like; cool ideas overall, as I hadn't considered running doubles, octaves, AND harmonies all together for a single vocal line. Thank you!

Straight Aces. 10 minutes, straight to the point, and clear examples. Thank you!

You are a LEGEND. Such a clear, concise and high quality tutorial. I love how real your passion is for the music and how much you're feeling the vocals. Bless u!

Probably the most concise and rounded view of vocal production of the ‘how-to’ tutorials I’ve seen. And great performances of course, and strong songs. Will probably reference your expertise more in future as a result. Really good stuff. Take care, be well, and thanks.

I somehow discovered all of these by myself, and while I was playing around I found out that vocoding a layer adds depth. Also you can render the final vocal as a full stereo separated track and another one full mono and play all 3 simultaneously. And for mixing I use fresh air to add color to the higher frequencies, some reverb with FabFilter and boost/cut unwanted freqs with Pro Q3

what is vocoding?

This is super educating and interesting! I understood what I had to do to make vocals work together (outside of knowing what adlibs were) but I just couldn't get the right technique down when putting any of it into action. This video showed me how to properly use said techniques and I feel confident working with vocals now. 😁👍

I just looked at the thumbnail and I've already learned half of the lesson without clicking the play button, this video is better than others I've seen so far

Thank you so much for these free KZread Tutorials. They have helped me so much in the past few weeks, since I started watching them. They have helped me have so much more confidence in my works! :)

Really good recap. If you've never taken traditional classes this is very good tutorial 👌🏾 his personal presets are good af too that vocal is crisp

Dude! You are amazing. Your enthusiasm is completely infectious and matches your skills. Those examples sound soooooo good!

Your passion and experience SHOWS , Never stop doing this , and thank you so much for sharing the sauce .

Super dope tutorial. learned these techniques when i first started because i was a musician at heart. it definitely paints the picture more clearly and brings life to the song!

Thanks man! I really needed this video for my project (which will have a segment with pure vocals, minimalist instruments) and couldn't find the layering right, but now I can actually hear the difference!

Love how passionate and excited you are

Love seeing your reactions while mixing, I can see your undeniable passion for it. 💯💯💯 Thank you for the info!

Its so nice to see how much you clearly love doing what you do. Love this video man!

Awesome tutorial. Thanks you! Btw I just love how happy you get when those vocal takes all come together. Good vibes. ❤️

Amazing. Such a simple concept but a huge impact on the song.

Concise explanation and loving your vibe! Something to add to fellow music production enthusiast 1. 'Double' really fatten those lead vocals, adds more energy and stability at the same time. You could use a more centered panning (5-10% L/R) for a tighter mix or wider panning (100% L/R) for a stereo feel. You could set different pre-delay and pitch to enhance the stereo feel (something less than 25 ms and +/- 3 to 12 cents pitch shift). Variation of the pannings, pre-delay, and pitch results different effects, so experiment with them! 2. Adlibs vary from vocal chops or auxillary percussions. My favorite example is in the song Flamingo by Kenshi Yonezu where use abundant of vocal adlibs and harmony on top of a catchy beat. Like the sound of your mouth clicking, popping, ahem, and "check-check" can be a tool for you. Have fun!

Man this was very informative!!! But side note how much you enjoy and feel the music is truly beautiful man… I’m feeling inspired 🔥🔥

usually, every tutorial videos are kinda boring. but your video is sooo fun that I want to see more😍

This was so helpful and awesome, dude. Love your energy. Thanks for making this!

I’ve finally found tutorials taught by someone who is enthusiastic about their work! Amazing stuff :)

Great vocal doubling video. Been looking for something like this. Sadly I figured it out over a couple years of trial and error haha but how you used the harmonies gave me some great ideas

Vocal series will really be a gem

Doubles have been used for years. So easy to drop in nowadays. Very powerful tool especially lifting the choruses or bridge into chorus. These tracks sound like hits in the making! Enjoying your content!

Thanks for this video man. It really helped with my last two videos. It's hard doing everything on your own. So videos like this made by people with contagious joy are such an invaluable thing to have.

GAME OVER I love your enthusiasm dude 😂 keep it up❤

I’ve also found that if you duplicate take one and leave the original raw while pitchshifting the duplicate to perfection, you get that electric effect. I like the idea of 2 different takes and panning over though!! Im working on a song now and the chorus needs that push and this will probably be the answer!! Thanks man, great info 🤘

@ryanrobinson4072

Well I would definitely call myself a rookie lol. But the hard panning has made a huge sound for me. Also with my guitars. Two takes, but each take panned hard L R. Massive sound even before frequency fluctuations. For vocal screams the hard pan but on either L or R, I will move the one of the takes over about a mil sec and it gives it a big sound too. Probably another rookie move but that’s helped for me a lot. Every bit of advice I can get I definitely consider and try though. I’m self taught and just do it for fun in my home studio. So any other tricks for vocals you have, shoot ‘em at me!! Always tryna get better

Super excited for this series!

Just came across your channel Alex. I'm amazed what a wonders you can do with the vocal. I'm stunned. I'm surely start to use those few terrific ideas on my vocal. Great tutorial Alex.

this is actually awesome. There is so much energy you bring to this passion of yours its refreshing to see.

Helpful techs, I made me understand how the vocals can be used as instruments

Love these techniques. Ive been doing doubles since I've started learning to record my voice almost ten years ago and it remains one of my favorite methods to make a voice pop. Just didn't know what it was called.

This was so much more useful in so much less time than anything else I could find on this subject. Thank you.

Me encanta la pasión que le pones cuando escuchas tu composión, es la misma emoción que pongo cuando tmb escucho sonar bien mis beats y vocales.

This is amazing!!! My voice sounds so much better and it needs all the help it can get. You're awesome for sharing your knowledge so generously. Thanks for changing my art for the better.

Nice video bro you really highlight the importance of vocal layering in our music

Wow i literarily screamed when i heard all vocals sounding in unison with the beat

Bro WOW the damn chroma verb and echo on the adlib was INSANE!!! So great bro thank you 😭

Awesome tutorial thanks, I’d love to hear a similar video for rap. I have trouble doubling in that genre because I find it very hard to get there same takes at the same time with how percussive words are (as opposed to singing). I’m looking to find if there’s a way around that, maybe copy pasting the main take (and maybe fiddling with it a little is the best option)

Thanks for simplifying it! I guess I’ll have to do this separate though after my instrumental is exported as a single track because I only have limited amounts of tracks so I’ll finish my Instrumental and then put the vocals over it so I can mix it and stack the vocals properly. Thanks man. I hope to be able to help people with my music and you’ve helped with this one I think.

Most songs these days sound good because of Dr Dre... that's how I learned how to do certain techniques. Layering has always been around but the way he did it is the way most people do it now. Even in hip hop. And with 2pac, he did adlibs a certain way, which most people now have done. Bone This contributed a lot too when it comes to vocal arrangements

Valuable tips but I also love your genuine reactions. Awesome!

I believe it was the Beatles who first brought double-tracking into the studio. So much of what we do and take for granted in the studio these days was actually pioneered by the Beatles. The Flange effect was also attributed to the Beatles who literally warbled the physical flanges of the tape heads during mixing to get that signature effect. I always incorporate these techniques in the studio, and this is a great video showing how effective and evocative it can be. :)
