I've watched a shit ton of mixing videos, but no one has ever explained it in this way to where it was so simple to understand & showed the process at the same time. dude, you are awesome keep up the good work my guy .....
Bruh, for the past 3 days, I have been fighting with getting the vocals to sit properly in this song, and I jokingly said out of frustration, "HELP ME DEVON!" and then this vid showed up and changed my LIFE! thank you for this!!
1:59 - 2:17 GOLD! I've been doing this from day 1 and it ALWAYS works. Even when I'm having problems during my mix, I always mute everything else and start with these three then slowly build up my mix one element at a time until I can isolate the problem.
Hey yo, I'm new to your channel. Watched 3 or 4 of your videos, already subbed, an must say you are a game changer my boy!!! The way you break down what it is your doing, using to do it, why your doing it to that part of the vocal, an actually explain what the different things are ment to do an what they can be used for depending on what it is your looking to do.. like explaining the frequencies in a EQ an explaining compression.. I jus wanna say even though I'm new to your channel, you've already helped me on multiple levels so THANK YOU for the hard work you put in and sharing your wisdom with all of us!!!
You could be the greatest teacher on TH-cam...Im not absolutely sure..I will have to continue to investigate your videos...Your ability to simplify the complex could be unmatched. I will "like" and continue to dwell into your training. Thank you, so much, for sharing.
hey DEVON im from south africa i started mixing last year ididnt knw nothing but since isaw your videos im able to mix my songs even though im using low quality material thank you for your lessons
Why, thank you ever so much. Finally a tutorial that doesn't focus on any single program but teaches you the basic editing skills for every advanced music program. I'll take the beard as an extra bonus.
Are you suppose to mix vocals right into the actual beat like that? I thought the entire beat was suppose to get waved down first??? Now I’m confused 😅
Bro this dude and 360 Jeezy are spirit brothers or some ish.. You are to the music world, what 360 Jeezy is to the barber world and y’all give off the same kinda energy.💯
just share a trick, I used to use volume meter by wavesaudio, set it on -18dB as a 0 and don't forget klick the mono button. you can set your kick on -3dB, snare 0dB and your vocal at +3dB. and there you go, you got a nice balance of 3 important elements at -12dB on your master fader.
I think it's a great mix I think it's a art I feel like there was too much air on your vocals but that's more a preference so like I said art great job bro!
If your on a pretty tight budget, what DAW do you recommend for recording and mixing vocals.. or even just mixing/mastering pre-recorded vocals from a diff daw..
Ouff! In the tracks ive made the Hats are much much Louder so its no wonder they remained to be instrumentals (or at least s.t. to do with it) & likely too busy to fit vocals on except for dubby samples & snippets here & there. This will surely serve to be a guide line on tracks destined to accompany vocals & yeah im watching vids 2-3 times & taking notes, so it all registers before even applying these techniques directly in the non organized way id been. Knowing that I have a few hurdles to overcome namely one being the art of listening. While im glad to have stepped back to reaccess what ive ran with, so to re approach it with a new, more mature comprehension & perspective. Im Greatfull ~ Thx!
THANK YOU SOO MUCH! Your videos are really helping my music sound better! I'm an artist but don't really have the money to get a producer so doing my demos myself and getting them to sound as great as possible is cruicial. The kick and snare matching the vocal was a great strategy! Thanks again!
Can you make a tutorial of sitting the vocals perfect in the instrumental if it is downloaded from TH-cam or an already made beat, great tutorial tho it really helped a lot already!!
Don’t forget to visit www.helpmedevvon.info to support the channel!!
How do you get that dark look on the DAW
@@maavinomusiq new pro tools has the dark mode option!
@@HelpMeDevvon yeah i just realized. Thanks bro.
Your videos transformed my mixes tremendously, keep doin this shit bro. Strait out of Jamaica🇯🇲
How do you slowly move to the faders again?
@@HelpMeDevvon Hey what DAW is that your working out of????
I feel like I’m at church and the pastor just gave a good word on getting your vocal to sit perfect in the mix. Thanks Pastor Devon
I feel you but you still crazy 😂
😂

Nothing on youtube compares to your explanation. Crazy I'm working on a track and this pops up. Love the algorithm

The foundational elements - kick, snare and lead. Makes so much sense to do it this way. Thanks!

I cant tell if you're better at producing, songwriting, engineering or teaching. Inspiration. SALUTE
Best teacher on TH-cam...No one breaksdown tutorials like yourself king, you are my only reference for anything mix related. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
That means a lot thank you very much!
The lighting in this video is looks amazing!

I’ve noticed that making these small changes before you come to laying down the entire track, can help with speed when coming to the final mix👌
You're a beast Devon, best tutorials that I've seen on the whole youtube and your music super vibes 🔥
Thank you yo for real!!
Absolutely Tru STATEMENT.
I just wanted to write the same thing, best content!

Great Video/info.
Youre creating so much value for others ...
Great technique... this made so much sense to me where I was extremely over thinking the process.

Clip gaining peaks is really nice to!
just share a trick, I used to use volume meter by wavesaudio, set it on -18dB as a 0 and don't forget klick the mono button. you can set your kick on -3dB, snare 0dB and your vocal at +3dB. and there you go, you got a nice balance of 3 important elements at -12dB on your master fader.
Appreciate it bro about to start using this approach
I think it's a great mix I think it's a art I feel like there was too much air on your vocals but that's more a preference so like I said art great job bro!
