Thank you Forest!! I truly thank you for your producing instincts in Studio One!!! You have a the perfect high pace yet still "mentor" ... with your soul/gut instincts and share those musical emotions as you wade through all those during your unfolding of your mix. 🎶
I've been in Reaper a lot lately. I was in ProTools forever, then I moved to Reaper when I downgraded my hardware for an Army trip. Used it so much doing Voice Over work that never went back. Now that I'm doing more music again, I should prollie get a real DAW, huh
I’m coming back! My son is in hospital at Vanderbilt right now awaiting heart surgery. When you ask where did I go, I would answer with taking care of my family with no free time to make videos at the moment. Will be back as soon as I can.
Hi Forest, Happy New Year! Hope this year brings you and your family great joy. Also, wanted to say thank you for not giving up on your fans with all you've gone through over the last couple years. The amount of time you put into these videos are so greatly appreciated. They help us tremendously. Really looking forward to following this channel, being a Studio One user.
This has motivated me so much to get back to recording. I was getting really down on myself because I always feel I sound boring but now I’m gonna let loose and use this vid to make my vocals excellent
Congratulations on your new channel! I became fan of Studio One in 2020 and that’s what use for all my productions now. Looking forward to seeing more awesome content from you. Happy new year!
Love you're videos, i'm trying to build as a country/pop artist myself, it's slowly getting there but building my followers are my biggest issue at the moment, also I use Studio One 6 Professional, so you're videos are perfect for me
Helpful video Forest ! I follow your main channel too and i am also obsessed with studio one. Feels great to see you maaking content specifically for studio one. Lots of love and best wishes !
Excited for new content. Heavy Logic user her (15 years), just started with S1 subscription. Many advantages over Logic: Melodyne integration, consolidated plugin window, bouncing out stems/tracks. Bouncing out 50 + stems with Logic has always been time consuming and not always flawless. Thanks for great content, Alex
This is awesome, Forest! So glad you started a dedicated Studio One channel. As my main DAW of choice your channel will be super helpful in producing my own music. You’re a great educator. Thank you for all your help. A Very Happy New Year to you and wish you much success for 2024. 🙏
@@StudioOneLab Thank You very much, Forest. Hope you’re doing well. Looking forward to releasing some of my songs this year using Studio One and the knowledge from you.
Please build a simple Studio One guitar vocal template for singer songwriters at your new Studio One Lab channel!!!! I’m going to enjoy this channel!!!
Great example, most tutorials they don't mix it very well, but in this case this is truly a high pro level mixed vocal. One little thing that can be unbeneficial to a begineer : when you say "always have a low cut" actually there nothing that have to be always say, and maybe the low cut has already been applied, maybe the vocal sit nicely with the phase and when put a low cut the phase shift make the whole mix less good, just a small thing to know most of the time theyll be good with a low cut but don't use it just "you have to" (talking to the beginners).
Just subscribed i am so excited to learn new stuff from you sir ...im so blessed that i never tought that i can afford free lesson from a biggest heart in whole world..i dont have a good room but walking on your steps putting a cheap headphone and do what i learn from you...god bless you sir.
Brilliant stuff Forest! This is going to be a great channel. Quick question (or maybe a future topic to cover?). Which drum sound set from the included, stock Impact sets could you use for modern Country /pop style music and how would you edit/set them up (I see a lot of electronic, edm type sounds that are great for this)
Here we go! Hey Forest!!! I went with Studio One last year on your recommendation! Bam!!! This is great, brother! I learn something new in S1 every time i use it. Keep it coming!
I use to only look up Logic Pro X stuff because thats what I work in but after years of creating music I know how to transfer the knowledge. Just here to support brother and gain some knowledge.
Great video, we've followed your other channel for a while and it's always been super inspiring and useful. In your opinion, what level should you aim for as an average when tracking vocals? I always see varying advice but the vocals you record always sound so good
We do many things in a similar way. I do like to boost high frequencies ahead of de essing, for a more consistent HF sound, I also use parallel multi band limiting with a Waves L316-a 16 band limiter which automatically tames frequencies that pop out of your vocal and adds more fatness. Can be done with a multi band compressor with a high ratio too. This kind of compression/limiting adds body rather than tickling the tops of the waveform. Especially useful if the singer has variable timber throughout their vocal range. In this type of parallel compression 20:1 fast attack 8ms, fast release 30ms, 10-12 db reduction per band. Transients still present in the non parallel channel. Saves a ton of time on eq moves.
Wow thank you so much you managed to explain what I was trying to understand for two years in 7 minutes. I know this sounds exaggerated but trust me its true. I have been having issues.
0:38 - 0:40 Yes, a good singer, no question. But those thin lines on the waveform on the vocal track indicates, that this is already "melodyned" 🙂so no autotune is needed. 😀 Good tips anyway! Thumbs up
Hey forest, I have my new focusrite interface, midi keyboard and my guitar. I understand the popular answer to the question 'what daw should i get as a beginner' is that each DAW is unique and it's a subjective answer. With that being said, it's too expensive to go about trying all these daws. Now having said that and with that being said, is Studio one a good place to start?
