hella good video bro
Glad you liked it was one of my fav videos to do i see a very good response from everyone about this one
Great video my brotha I got the Neve 1084 pre amp,Manley voxboox, Avalon 737,
Yessir out of those all which one is your favorite
@@mixlikenix I got to say that 1084 so far is my top favorite the second is Avalon 737 but I’m still learning how to create my own vocal chain so this is likely to chain in the future
Great video. I learned A LOT! I can tell you’re from Florida from your vocabulary. I miss home… Keep up the great work! ✊🏽🙏🏽👌🏽
Thanks! 😃
What would you reccomend for j cole Kendrick type sound like boom bap hip hop not modern
🐐
yessir
i feel like ever since I upgraded my mic to the sphere my vocals have been sounding different and I wanna say it’s from the neve pre amp I’ve been using. You should make a vid on the best vocal chain specifically for the uad and sphere
yea i will do a video about that maybe give a few ideas,
Personally I use the default unison preamp emulation and i like how clean it soudns
@@mixlikenix yea I’m definitely gunna give that a try, I’ve been using the neve 1073 and I swear it messes with the auto tune or something.
exactly!!!!! The fucking auto tune sounds weird like it either makes it sound like there’s no auto tune or there’s too much auto tune no inbetween lol
@@mixlikenix I’m also gunna give that a try as well! Thx for the advice
Hey! how many dbs do you put in the red knob for the neve ?I also have a sphere and put 45 in the red knob with 12db of output gain in order to get a decent signal for my vocals with peaks of -12dbs, however I think it sounds better when set at 40dbs but then the signal is low with peaks of around -18db. I wonder if it's my sphere mic or if it's normal with every sphere mic 😅 thanks!
Got another question bro Just wanted to ask aswell I was planning on getting the API channel strip and use it strictly for the noise gate for cleaner vocals would I be better off buying c vox and putting that on my chain instead or getting API? I saw someone use it and it completely removed the noise as I’ve only been doing this 3 months I’m still working out of my room (so no treatment) like you were in the video
I would tell you to demo them before you buy
I prefer a light dose of C suite vox that is way more than just A gate,
@@mixlikenix appreciate that bro thanks 🙏
I have some issues with the NEVE 1073 preamp UAD. When I set the Gain to about 30-45 I end up with a very quit vocal in my DAW. I really need to touch the Output knob of the NEVE to about all the way 12db to end up at least -18 to -12db in my DAW. What wrong here?
Use the trim to boost output as well
@@rnbyido What's the Trim? The slider? I think the slider also add's color from the preamp...
@scott good responses, I always crank up to 35-40db on the neve.
If you were to push the neve past the 40s itll sound way to overcooked.
What I usually do is have the UAD LA2A LEGACY doing about 1db of compression and then using the gain to control how hard im going in the DAW. You could even use the pultech legacy to and just push the knob for clean gain
@youngwhitefresh You are right, the fader for the NEVE 1073 is colored it will add more distortion, smart man thats what I LIKE TO HEAR
Avalon or Api for the preamp? im getting C suite in the 2 for 1 bundle but I wanna get a dope preamp that's multi functional
I like the Avalon better, I feel like its more versatile.
I used a real avalon hardware in the studio I couldnt tell the difference between the plugin and real thing
I use the API for everything, I think Mike Dean uses it for Travis Scott
fav pre is the API 💯
Can you go over the 610 b parameters for recording vocals? I’m not sure how to work it much and I haven’t found a tutorial using it for recording hip hop vocals
yes bro i recorded so many things with it, I know it like the back of my hand. Its on the list
@@mixlikenix cant wait bro
Hi bro, can i ask you what is best preamp for R&B my voice is bit thick when im singin?
For R&B I would go with neve 88rs it sounds modern, but doesnt have that huge low mid bump, Try those settings
th-cam.com/video/R8ManjHfiQ0/w-d-xo.html
What’s the best one to use for auto vocals the neve 1073 or the 610? In the market for one as I’ve saved for it to take my chain up a level again appreciate your work bro 👊
Neve 1073 bro
@@mixlikenix thanks bro 🙌
YO blood! I'm torn betweeen the API and the NEVE? for them powerful rich clear creamy vocals.....what would you recommend? my voice is similar to your by the way, its also quite deep. I want to pair it with the disressor....
I would go with the Neve Preamp brother you put that with the distressor and its 🤯
@@mixlikenix However .... I was looking to get this UAD spark thing? Cos it seems quite good for what I need. One big problem, it doesn't come with the distresssor 😭 is there any compressor that has that same sauce or shall I just get the Neve Preamp and Distressor separately? Thanks NIX 🤙🏾
@@TzoHillget the distressor and preamp first.
Spark is cool too, but mostly for people who dont have a UAD interface. the basic interface comes with a lot of the plugs in it
@@mixlikenix I don't have a UAD interface brother. And I mainly wanted UAD spark for the Pultec EQ, Oxide Tape, Neve 1073 EQ preamp and that Lex Reverb. Won't the 1176 into the LA2A that comes with it give similar sound to vocals like the Distressor? Or is the Distressort literally LEAUGES above it? Haha sorry for the questions dawg I just wanna make sure it's the right choice. *For fairly fast Rap Vocals only*
@@TzoHill Well unless you have a UAD interface you can't use the UAD Distressor. There is also the Empirical Labs Arouser plug which is a clone of that.
Demo the spark, you can trial it out for 2 weeks and figure out if its the right thing for your situation.
How you re setting trial
all trials reset every new plugin you buy
Yo so what if i don’t have UAD plugins ? What are other plugins i can track with on the way in for preamps ?
Before I had UAD I was using waves plugins such as NLS bus and the CLA2A as the first things in the chain I would recommend those
Watch this video
th-cam.com/video/3qUoNMGc2cM/w-d-xo.html
You don’t need UAD interface to use there plugs look up UAD Spark you can use it on windows or Mac
Does preamp vst goes first in mixer track u are recording to or must it be on bus mixer track
Use Console....it came with your interface if you have UAD....so not directly into your DAW but in the extra console program
Hé Bro…soit tu parles soit tu fais sonner à un moment donné 🤌🤌👀👀👀….
