It’s important to memorize the frequencies, especially in fabfilter or in analog Eq like British Neve’s 7.2 kHz clarity boost. Here she showed the 330 hz to 360 hz reduction which is a mud remover. 400 hz to 800 hz can be very forward and warm , or Adele energetic, powerful, so it’s the next great frequencies the memorize or learn and to adjust since it’s a lot of Throat voice, chest voice. She covered a lot of the clarity, head voice with the high pass and Fresh air enhancement for the trebles, which covers the heavenly beautiful whispering or any form of the airy gleaming shining glimmery pristine-ness aspects of the voice recordings, de-essing to remove abrasiveness. Removal of abrasiveness is one of the first essentials steps, It’s like doing Make up , doing a glow up requires Primer and blemish removal. Adding air and compressor harmonics is like the eyelashes liner and final glows, and the lipstick 💄 👄. The goal (of the modular processing chain) is to make the human voice beautiful (well if the singer can sing and record well, musicality and professional voice comes first) Like a choreo, the chosen moves come first before the dancer can dance, whether silly sexy or beautiful. This is modular and chain making.

thanks oldskool prod!

any time!

glad it helped Georgian!

Are u intersting in a vocal demo?

haha nice, work with that tools ya got!

20 band gang here too 💪🏻

omg so sweet. haha thank u Daniel!

Hey Evan! thanks for this Q! I always record vocals over the wav file, because at that point in time my project is almost always too big to hadle a buffer size of 128 recording audio... plus you can see how much processing goes down, so I want a fresh project as not to get totally bogged down and overwhelmed. The instrumental isn't necessarily done at this point, sometimes it's mixed already and sometimes it's still a work in progress. Just depends at what point I'm getting stoked to record the vocals. I don't send y vocals to any fx bus while recording, but I will bring in reverb & delay with parallel processing later in the song project. Hope that helps! Holler if you have any more Qs. Cheers.

haha 😝 thx for watching glad it was helpful!

Excetra, et cetera, etc.

sweet! glad that's working out for ya.

haha rock on thanks yo!!

dope :]

haven't heard of that! say more?

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C9ZZZuliXxQ.html this video explain the trick, in fact is considered an old school trick. I use it in parallel to add some mass to the center of the vocal. But you can use in the lead too. For me was a game changer to make my vocal sit in front of bass/ 808 heavy instrumentals pushing the energy to the middle of your forehead. In the video you'll understand better how the pultecs are used to make the la2a glue the energy into the front/center.

tru - you can hear context at the end. but my vocal is my main element in my song so everything else gets mixed around it. when I pull it in my actual song project and start parallel processing is when I really start thinking about the mix around it.

yum
