Wow. This is a song I produced. Thats me on instruments and my singers.
Expert tips here i thank you for the info!
Happy to help 😉
Thank y6ou so much... been looking for material online for gospel since a long time. Thanks for this. Absolutely new subscribe and share here.
Thanks so much for checking out the channel! Look forward to seeing you in the comments :)
This is amazing
Thanks so much for checking it out!
Good job. Thanks so much. From Nigeria
Thanks! I used to be the staff sound guy at a Nigerian church here in Houston 😊
powerful
Thanks 🙏
This was a great video. Been following the Gospel series up until now, was amazed by the results. Actually got my first goose bumps listening to a mix in progress. Do still have a lot more to learn. But this is a great series, especially for engineers trying to get in the game of not over compressing everything.
By the way, you got jokes, without trying to be funny. Is this what they call engineers humour? Thank you for sharing and taking your time to show every step in detail. They were moments I wished you would just cut out all the boring bits, but then I realized the reason you are showing it must be important. So I had to pray to God to give me patience. He did come through. One more video and I think I might have my first.
Thank you man, really. You God sent. I really needed a fairly decent mix. This ain't snake oil, folks!
Thanks so much for the kind words! I’ve thought about cutting out the boring parts, but I wanted people to see the full process, especially if I make a mistake or change my mind about a mix decision. Didn’t want to hide anything 😉
Four tracks for each choir part (4x3=12) and then a choir track. Who knew!! Great I gotta try this!
Yep! And sometimes more than that 😁
I've handled 4 parts with 4 voices for each part some time back, along with 2 extra contraltos! It was quite an experience and I loved the challenge. Panning them all is a crucial aspect for the vocals to sound wider and robust at the same time.
I like it
Thanks!
Nice vid Zakk.... What was the plugin to cranked after the ssl stack? I felt that.
Zakk brother..hope u well..where have u been?anymore content?we miss u your content really improved some of us🙏🙏🙏
Hey! I have more content for sure. Just been really busy the past year. But don’t worry, it’s coming in 2022 😉
You are good producer,
Thank you!
@@MixChecks you are welcome so what is the best plugins to use is mixing gospel songs.
I’d start with the stock plugins in your DAW. You can get amazing results with just those. Then you can expand your plugin library as you feel you need a certain tool or if you find a certain plugin will speed up a process and make you more efficient.
You should make a MixChecks Discord server! I would totally join!
I know. I need to get with the times 😂 . I already have enough trouble keeping up with my mixing business, the mixchecks website, and the TH-cam channel.
👍🏼👍🏼
My Bro, amazing content the multitracks are available???
Thank you so much for checking it out. Here are the multitracks: mixchecks.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/multitracks/Such+Love+Multitracks.zip
really amazing :) thanks so much. what is the name of the choir and track title?
Thanks for checking it out! I don’t believe this song was ever released so I’m not sure of the titles :(
I have heard some big records where the Alto or tenor sound louder then the soprano vocals and am mixing a song right now where the same is happening , no matter how I try to balance it, the other parts comes out more.
Any comment on this?
Could it be because those lower parts have more low frequency content that makes them sound fuller? Maybe try a HPF on the tenors/altos.
Where they mic in mono or stereo
how should I pan our vocals? we have 2 of each part
I like putting the lead in the middle and slightly panning the 2 parts. So if you have alto/ tenor, I’d do alto 1 and tenor 1 25% to the left. Then do alto 2 and tenor 2 25% to the right.
@@MixChecks If you do not mind me asking, how would you pan 3 separate mono backing voc's (alto, tenor, soprano) and 1 lead, arranged exactly like the vocals here?
Do you have any multitracks one can use to practice specifically for gospel
Sure! Here you go: mixchecks.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/multitracks/Such+Love+Multitracks.zip
What's the name of the software used?
Logic Pro by Apple 🍎
Sounds like the choir was already heavily processed.. they're even panned in a way although the tracks aren't..
I don’t know about processed, but they came in as stereo tracks so they definitely could have some panning going on.
Hi what’s the name of the song??? I want to check it out
Unfortunately this song was never officially released.
@@MixChecks why ???? 😭😭😭
@@leoomolue Not really sure lol. I liked it too
What's your contact info bro because I don't seem to get through with the one you have up..
Sorry about that. Did you try my email? zakk@churchrecording.cc? You can also reach me through my website: churchrecording.cc OR on Soundbetter.com
How many voices were?
I believe 12 total. 4 soprano, 4 alto, 4 tenor
@@MixChecks thanks
It was 3 voices per section. I layered them 4 times each.
You’re not giving any instruction you’re just playing to track and moving around stuff. That’s not helping at all sorry
Sorry about that. Here's the steps in the video:
1:40 - bussing all the choir tracks
4:30 - Adding SSL channel strip to bus
4:45 - Turning off the Gate
4:46 - Adding compression (to even out the levels and give it the compressed sound.)
4:53 - Rolling off the low end with hi-pass filter (Don't need the low end for vocals)
5:05 - Adding some high end EQ for sparkle
6:04 - Explanation of what I did with the SSL
6:44 - Reducing some low-mids (To get rid of the boxy sound)
7:07 - Adding more compression (to smooth out the levels even more)(fast attack, fast release for vocals)
9:06 - Sending them to the FX
9:53 - Explaining overall level decisions
Hope that helps bring a little clarity to everything. Thanks for watching.
@@MixChecks thank you so much
@@MixCheckszakk I'm trying to get some info because I have a job to get done
@@jamalrichards7109 Hey! You can contact me at zakk@churchrecording.cc or through my website: churchrecording.cc OR I’m on Soundbetter.com
mixing video with horrible audio......
Something I like to tell people when they are on TH-cam learning about mixing is if you think the mix is bad, probably not a good idea to learn from that person. So, for you, if you think my mix is bad, I’m probably not the best person to be taking tips from 😉
