Thank you sooo much David, I am eq'n a vocal track right now and with a deadline, it's so sweet to go to an into the lair and get my head around where I need to be. I live in Hollywood, so to repay you: if you ever need you're car washed or lawn mowed, IT'S THE LEAST I COULD DO:) for my favorite way to acquire knowledge and wisdom. Viva Las Pensado's place
Awesome detail, thanks a bunch. I really like the insights into your thoughts on what different frequencies mean to you or what emotions they bring up. Those are always some of my favorite parts of the shows.
Thank you Sir. Please keep the outstanding Job ! I am sure all people watching appreciate your videos ! Not so many producers share the tricks. Those who got some idea from your videos will remember your name.
In my personal opinion, one of your best videos, and boy, is it hard to say that since they're all five stars. I sat here in my control room, with a cup of tea, past midnight, and I really felt like being "there", with you willing to give away some great, great knowledge. Plus, this video has some of the best, spontaneous improvised jokes ever, too :)
Hey Dave, what happened to the C1sc? you mentioned it and then went onto the channel strip. Would love to see what you were talking about. Any chance you could touch on this In the near future ? Thanks
How do you get the single mono vox stem to stand out so much? I usually duplicate vox stems n mix them together, obviously compress them. Do you have any quick tips?
CJProSound yeah i was thinkin the same thing about the automation. That was totally wrong and it had me confused, like can u make automation pre fader in p.t...
I don't want to sound arrogant but there was one thing I noticed that wasn't correct in what Dave said. He mentioned that he did some volume automation to help the compressor not have to work so hard. The thing is that on an audio track, the volume automation happens after the inserts, not before. The only track type that reverses this is the Master Fader track. This is why clip gain is so amazing; you can do some automation pre-inserts, and some post - whatever floats your boat.
Which frequency was the Jason Joshua memorial frequency? Was it the 2k or another one he did’t actually name before he started talking about the 6k shelf, I couldn’t tell
Didn't say if he was looking for aust vocals or what. Acapellas4U is a website that has a lot of vocals, samples and dj tools. Acapella Fella , search Soundcloud and he does old school seperations of the vocal from the songs.
Actually, what he said makes perfect sense. Because he did the automation, he doesn't have to use as much compression to achieve the same end result. Thus....the compression isn't doing as much (a.k.a. "working as hard").
Vocal rider doesn't exactly look like that, it's a little more choppy. To me that looks like he manually adjusted the volume automation lane with the mouse.
Wow, lots of Melodyne kind of artefacts on the voice. Little to much for my taste, especially for that kind of song. But great tutorial anyway. Thanks!
