Nice video again. it really smoothes out that track. For myself I mostly use my Klark1176 and Klark full tube LA2a for vocals as in the way you descrobed in the beginning. But sometimes the quicker way with the Overloud Gem Voice plugin,which I also really like.

Thanks again. I’ll have to check out that Overloud plugin. Only have the Gem 550 EQ from them but really like that.

Always appreciate your vids. Just wound up at this older one after watching your two audimee ones. But of all things, the tip in here about setting the Cubase automation panel reduction to zero solved a problem I’ve been fighting for years-why are my automation curves winding up jagged!?!? Thank you thank you!

Lekker hoor, duidelijk en goed voor gedaan. Dat van die Cubase setting voor automation wist ik niet. Wel heb je nogal wat plugins die allemaal weer centjes kosten haha, is niet voor iedereen denk ik
@LanewoodStudios
@LanewoodStudios 2 года назад
Bedankt, je spaart er wat op in de loop der tijd 😉. Maar voor een aantal kun je natuurlijk ook de Cubase varianten gebruiken.
@delsurmusic
@delsurmusic 2 года назад
Your videos are amazing, thank you !!!. Why did you write the automation of the vocal rider? what would have happened without it?
@LanewoodStudios
@LanewoodStudios 2 года назад
Thank you. I wrote the automation to make sure those rides are exactly the same every time. In practice it probably does not make a difference.
@achanonymous
@achanonymous 2 года назад
@@LanewoodStudios for me, I write the automation so that I can tweak it. In my experience, Vocal Rider doesn't get it quite right most of the time - it's often a bit too reactive, adjusting the level just behind where it needs to, so I usually tweak the automation forward by 10-30ms depending on the vocal, along with other tweaks to finish it off. It gets it probably 90% of the way there though, and still saves a lot of time vs if I was to do it all completely manually, so it's definitely a very useful tool.

Is there a reason you avoided using clip gain first ? Thanks.It sounded excellent anyway
@LanewoodStudios
@LanewoodStudios 2 года назад
No I just rarely use clip gain. On a serious mix I would probably gain stage the track first by using a Britson plugin. I do have a separate video about that.

So. Is the Klanghelm comp like an advanced LA2A?
@LanewoodStudios
@LanewoodStudios 2 года назад
Not exactly. The LA2A is an opto compressor and the MJUC is a variable-mu tube compressor. It has a couple of different flavours though. Check it out!

Leveling macro from melodyne, automatic level control from Nectar 3, One compressor for the peaks, then a LA2A, I do not like the vocal rider. Also in your example. The last words a still not loud enough.
@LanewoodStudios
@LanewoodStudios 2 года назад

@achanonymous

I just got hold of Melodyne 5 Editor and Nectar 3 Plus during black friday sales - I'd been holding off because I'd convinced myself that the tools I already had did a good enough job (and honestly they did, they were just time consuming), but a friend who's also an audio engineer has been raving about them to me for the last two years, so I finally caved. Not so much for the pitch correction (though it is possibly some of the most natural I've heard), but for the leveling, timing and de essing tools, that look like they could save me a heap of time during editing and mix prep. I can't wait to dig into them further as soon as I'm done with the current couple of mixes I've been working on, and have time to learn them properly!
