Hey Nathan, Love your channel and the knowledge bombs you drop. I have had terrific success applying some of the techniques you show to my own works and they have helped. One area I have questions about is when you are using the secondary EQ (Fresh Aire / Oxygen / Tube EQ) and what that's actually doing to the track. I'm not a fan of any "black box" solution that doesn't show/display what is actually happening to your frequency response, so when I listen to these, I hear a boost around 6K with the Tube EQ (as you show and state), and a boost around 8~9K with the Oxygen EQ that is also bringing out the "pushing air" from the vocalist like a white noise...but that value is not shown or stated which IMHO is critical for the "know your gear" approach. I would find it beneficial to see what this plug-in (and any of these single setting manipulation plug-ins) is actually doing to the track and what it is adding/subtracting/manipulating. Again, thank you. I have a great appreciation for the knowledge you impart to your followers!

The value of information in this video is damn near priceless. Once you know the process and can execute it, you've gotten past the most difficult part and never gave up. As for the ones who are still trying to wrap their head around the mixing process as a whole while still learning on their own the individual processes within it, LISTEN to this advice: Do NOT over confuse yourself by watching countless other RU-vid videos in an effort to move past wherever you are in the process. You will waste hours, days, and months collectively trying to put a sense together behind the bits and pieces of information that you will collect from all the half-ass information out there that's totally irrelevant to the actual information you need to help your certain situation and your mind's understanding. Instead, save this video. Rely on it. Rewatch it. Follow his processes. Try his processes. Whatever sense you need to put together to further your understanding will end up being found within your own trial and error and it will come waaaay faster this way than not. It's one of the most critical pieces of advice I can give after 4.5 years of learning on my own and can 100% say it's the advice I wish I had gotten. Good luck and enjoy the journey!

@greghillmusic
@greghillmusic Год назад
Here's something I noticed when you switched compressor types. You level matched the first one you tried, but when you switched em, the outputs were lower. When you switch compressors types, you gotta tweak the settings and level match again. Sometimes the input and output level becomes uneven, sometimes the amount of attenuation changes; so you have to level match again. My point is that you may have liked the VCA type compressor more than the FET or whichever you first tried, because it was louder..

Nope it is not. Perceived loudness affects every single person on Earth. Has nothing to do with amateurism, although those knowing their stuff are aware of this, yet if they forget then they just simply forgot, consequently becoming affected as any living soul. So in the end it is about strictly kept routinee, not to be influenced. Not a single pro experience is able to determine which sound is better comparatively when one of two identical sources is affected by the compressor the other is not and both vary in volume. Of course you are able to fully determine which source of the same two is heavily compressed, even though original is being louder, but that has not much to do with the stuff discussed here. Obvious is obvious. Subtle change has to be compared ideally with volume compensated respectively, and no experience can get around it on a regular basis.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:42 🎙️ The crucial first step in any vocal chain is ensuring proper recording, maintaining audio levels around -6dB, and addressing room acoustics to avoid issues like clipping and unwanted reflections. 01:25 🎚️ Corrective EQ comes next, focusing on subtle adjustments rather than aggressive moves. Shaving off frequencies below 100Hz and addressing harsh tones in the vocal are key considerations. 05:18 📉 Initial compression aims for 3-5 dB of reduction, using a 2A-style compressor to control peaks and maximize volume without causing clipping. 06:41 🎤 De-essing is essential to manage sibilance and prevent issues during later stages of mixing. Adjust de-esser settings carefully to maintain natural vocal characteristics. 11:21 🎛️ The plugin chain starts to deviate based on the desired outcome. Adding EQ with a color-giving plugin like Vintage EQ or Oxygen can enhance specific frequencies for desired tonal characteristics. 11:50 🔄 Serial compression, using a second layer of compression with a different character, is introduced. Choosing a compressor with color, grit, and punch is crucial in this step. 13:34 🔊 After all the processing, the vocal transformation is evident. Even though the volume remains similar, the vocal sounds punchier, more aggressive, and louder due to the applied compression and EQ adjustments.

I record in a fully finished and carpeted, thick concrete basement. (Old school recording). The only noise I get is if my dogs bark upstairs or if anybody walks around upstairs.

yo! You can look out the plugin Melodyne for pitch and timing correction, its pretty transparent, unlike autotune, but is not in real time. I don't own it but I usually just change the pitch and timing with Ableton wrap mode, you just have to go super precisely on super short time frame (tune the pitch of a simple vowel can sometime do miracle to the whole bars / sentence).

Have to say I liked the oxygen, more soft air less of a harsh resonance. Given the context of the soft music it made more sense. I'd say the first compressor w the dark tone was smoother too. Easier in the ear. Blended better. Final version sounded a bit fatiguing w some harshness. Nasal tones and a little bit of a warble getting more pronounced w the processing. That 4-6K area always kills my ears. On everything. But..I was only listening on my phone. Could be totally off base. Great video, I enjoyed it.

@generichuman_
@generichuman_ Год назад
What's your advise for mixing vocals that lie in the bass range? I'm finding that the lows in my voice often conflict with the bass frequencies, but when I cut them out, it makes the vocal harsh and nasally. I've messed around with multiband sidechain compression where I duck the bass frequencies of other instruments when the vocal hits, but I'm not sure if this is the correct way to do it. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
@NathanJamesLarsen
@NathanJamesLarsen Год назад
Really depends heavily on a lot of things like the arrangement (how dense is it? how big are your other bass elements? how crucial are the bass elements? etc.) but even with a bass singer it's usually low mids and not true "lows" that are causing the problem (think more like 100-150hz not 60hz). So I would definitely use a high pass filter to about 80hz and then try to identify what is actually causing any clutter. Is it actually the vocal or is the instrumental? Because a lot of times these things can be fixed by simple arrangement adjustments and not necessarily mix - which is why I preach REALLY hard on this channel that you need to focus on the producing heavily before mixing to figure this stuff out. I'd tend to try to find solutions that don't involve drastic EQ or multi-band compression because it usually just doesn't sound as good - instead look for arrangement choices where you can carve out that space in the actual instrumental. Obviously very hard to diagnose the issue in a comment but i hope this steers you in the right direction
@generichuman_
@generichuman_ Год назад
@@NathanJamesLarsen Thank you so much! This was very thorough, and it makes total sense. The choice of instruments and arrangement is going to change depending on where the vocal lies.

Fix it in the mix is not a good recipe for success, lol. Thanks again!

Why are people so conscious about how many DB the compressor is showing on the attenuation meter? I believe you should just compress by ear instead of looking at what the meter is telling you. Your vocal still sounds like it needs a hell lot more compression. Listen to when she say "my mind", it's jumping out of the speaker. Btw, try a limiter before a compressor to tame the peaks then follow with a compressor. Don't be afraid to push harder man.
@NathanJamesLarsen

I think u guys need to note what equipment was used to capture the audio. Were the vocals ran thru a preamp etc. cause this vocal chain is too much compression. Ratio 4:1 is pretty heavy compression that you can hear. 3:1 ratio allows more of the raw vocal to be heard, whereas 4:1 starts to make it sound squishy. On top of that, you’re slapping TWO compressors on it with 4:1 ratios. I think that pushes the audio away from a natural sound

I mean - frankly - preamps really do not make that much difference... I'm saying that having worked with literally just a small interface to owning a nice pre to also cutting vocals in a million dollar environment. As far as compression - what I showed in this video is actually quite minimal compression depending on the genre... if you are in folk then yeah you don't wan that much - but if you do pop or EDM - it's gonna hit WAY harder than I did here... so I am not a big fan when people comment blanket statements about "too much compression" - if anything that kind of tells me you've probably never worked around people who do this for a living and are in the industry. Basically every modern record made in the last 10 years probably uses 2-3 times more compression than you think. Again... there isn't a blanket statement and this is a creative choice - not objective... some people want a really transparent vocal, but if you want your records to sound like they compete with what's being released by top tier producers/engineers then compression is actually a big part of it - and using two or more (serial compression) is a common practice

Nathan this is very useful. Thank you for doing this. I have a question though that I hope dont get misinterpreted. Your voice is EQ'd in a way thats quite throaty/quacky, a trend I notice these days among many youtubers. It is very present indeed, but it can be stressful to listen to if you dont mind my saying. Im sorry if i sound a bit negative. Im just curious why this has become like a trend now.

Thank you for the demonstration. To me sounded great till you added the extras at the end. You added to much lol. But that could be the sound your looking for in your mix. Once again thanks for the video

For me it is sounds like you left all time in the undesired middle frequencies. But it is maybe because of mine stupid sound card in my computer.

WOW a youtube producer who actually lets us listen to the RAW INPUT! But fr, I can't hear the difference in that first adjustment. You must be using some special headphones.

I'm 14 years old writing my own songs but the way i write them is difficult like i have to imagine what it sounds like and play the exact sound on the piano to record.I can't sing well and i can't practice singing either cause i have thin walls and don't wanna be humiliated 😅.And im worried once i move out, it'll be too late to practice in my 20s. Idk what im doing and i could use a advice from a pro like u.

I don’t know your situation, and you might not be able to do this, but I’m 16 and writing music too. I used to feel the same way about singing, but one day I just told myself that I have to commit to getting better, so I just sang anyway. It doesn’t matter what your family thinks about your singing, you’re doing it to get better. Just stick with it

I'll be honest, I don't like this vocal chain. For one, I would use a dynamic EQ for the corrective eq and would have another band serving as a DS. You could even do what you did with the tube EQ on the first EQ and not even use the tube. And rather than using serial compression, I'd ride the fader in place of the first compressor and just use one compressor. And just like that you are going from 5 plugins down to 2. Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad chain. But you could save on the amount of plugins you use by just adjusting how you use each plugin
