I found a really good post on Reddit by someone who used to work with Max Martin and he laid out the entire stack process. Typically for big pop records it's always 4 stacks per part in the hooks. For Example - LD (C) with Stacks L,R,L,R.... Harmony 1 L,R,L,R.... Harmony 2 L,R,L,R... What's also interesting is their process is 1) Comp LD Vocal 2) Comp Doubles to LD 3) Comp Harmonies 4) Groove Lead (adjusting timing) 5) Align DBLS/HRMS to LD 6) Consolidate and export to Melodyne 7) Export back to Pro Tools

@MakePopMusic 4 месяца назад

Yeah their vocal stacks are NUTS. To be honest, I always HATED the export vocal, edit vocal in other software, export that and pop it in my DAW. THE ARA integration makes editing so much easier and faster. Now I have no reason to complain 😂

@bnjmnwst 4 месяца назад

The funny thing about this is that Melodyne doesn't require exporting. The version I have works as a plugin. It does have to be recorded in in real-time, then edited, but it's all inside Cubase. I do all of my time aligning in Melodyne, as well.

@dereksimke9117 4 месяца назад

Actually, I just saw a RU-vid short by Joshua Casper, from plug-in boutique that showed how in Ableton live you can select a melodyne as the default sampler and simply import a vocal, and hit edit and it will load it- no more waiting! Blew my mind.

@Misha.Joseph 4 месяца назад

You should make a folklore tutorial. There’s like none out there and I really would love to understand like folk/alt better

@SamNicolosiOfficial 4 месяца назад

I’d love to see him cover that as well, just to see his personal approach. A lot of folk/alt music intentionally excludes the hyper-aligned, meticulously tuned, and extra processed sound. Take Bon Iver’s 22, A Million for instance. Simple SM7, Neve+LA2A vocal chain followed by a low cut in protools and occasionally another compressor. Loads of vocal stacks, all panoramic panning. No time aligning. No crazy resonance-subtractive EQs. It’s just a different beast and would love to see his go at it.

Do you also cut out breaths? Sometimes there’s a breath happening in empty space but only in 1 ear, and it’s kinda distracting too.

@zerogives 3 месяца назад

Hey Austin, amazing tutorial! This saved my last mix. 🙌🙌 Do you recommend using a doubler on the Lead if you already have Dubs?

@MakePopMusic 3 месяца назад

If you want that effect, go for it. I never use doubler as a replacement for dubs. I use it for a stylized effect

@zerogives 3 месяца назад

@stestetsonmusic 4 месяца назад

Imagine the Beatles hearing Everything has to be Vocaligned and tuned when stacking vocals I like this type of editing for dance tracks and super pop but hate it on rock and soul etc feels to robotic Vocalign can leave artifacts any ideas why that might be happening

@ShiningHourPop 4 месяца назад

That’s why The Beatles, Soul and Motown endure to this day. Just super talented musicians.

@Dextermoon1 4 месяца назад

It only make sense to match dubs to lead once the lead is already properly tuned and timed correct ? Or does this work different

@MakePopMusic 4 месяца назад

The lead needs to be tuned and edited so it can act as the guide for all the dubs and harmonies.

@amanoprods 4 месяца назад

I can't get Vocalign to capture dubs.. It always pops out an error saying "There is no selected Dub" :(

@MakePopMusic 4 месяца назад

What program? Definitely shoot that over to them because I’ve never had that issue.

@amanoprods 4 месяца назад

@MakePopMusic thanks for the response. I have several bugs. For example, i can't drag&drop audio clips inside vocalign or can't capture multiple dubs at the same timr. I've just submitted a support ticket to synchroarts

Vocalign ruins my tracks. It automatically changes the formants of my voice & there's no way to turn it off.

@MakePopMusic 4 месяца назад

You should be able to choose the tuning / stretching algorithm and that’ll fix it. What version of VOCALIGN?

@musiclover-r9m 4 месяца назад

Same - revoice pro is even worse and more $$$. Timing is off, formant changes, and the pitch correction algo is a total joke.

@robshrock-shirakbari1862 4 месяца назад

@@musiclover-r9mthen you might need to refine your process. RVP is amazing.

@onutube167 4 месяца назад

I use Melodyne first and use the timing only setting in revoice. Gives far better results imo

@robshrock-shirakbari1862 4 месяца назад

@@musiclover-r9mI strongly disagree, and I do this professionally for a living. RVP does require a more skilled hand; but its capabilities for detailed editing are unmatched.

MANUAL EDITING IS THE ULTIMATE SKILL.. THIS PLUGGIN CANT WORK THE MAGIC.. THATS WHY IF YOU WILL EVER BECOME A WORK CLASS MIXING ENGINEER YOU NEED TO EMPLOY AN AUDIO EDITING ENGINEER SO YOU GET TO WORK ON A PROFESSIONAL CORRECTED VOCALS ALWAYS THE LAST TIME I CHECK MOST GRAMMY AUDIO MASTERING OR MIXING ENGINEERS WORK ON ALREADY GOOD SOUNDING VOCALS.. ITS UNPROFESSIONAL TO BE TREATING VOCALS EDITS DURING MIXING !! PERIOD . I AM WELL EXPERIENCED IN AUDIO OVER THE YEARS AND I WORK WITH THE BEST OF THE BEST AUDIO UNITS AVAILABLE TO VSTS E.T.C
