Hey Alex I have a few tips for you that should help everyone!! :) 1. When recording, pay attention to proximity effect, it's easy to overlook and the closer you are to the mic the more it will sound like there is a blanket on your voice 2. Parallel compression, never not do this, you will never beat radio mixes if you don't use it 3. Black box plugin at the end of a vocal chain is a literal cheat code 4. Reverb completely changes the EQ of a vocal and can make or break your tone, choose wisely! Capitol Cambers for pop, or Shimmer for a club style are great options! Good luck everyone!!
@@kili4865 In the most basic form, it is just blending together a dry signal and a heavily compressed signal to help mellow out harsh and noticeable compression.

Am slowly making it through your bootcamp course. Every little lesson both here and there is moving the needle closer to having some amazing productions:)
Eh, took me a while too. It just takes praxtixe fr. You need to xompress them down, then remove unwanted noise, fix your “slurs”, etx. -then do unique “layerin’”. Then you’ll be impressed. Don’t overkill them with unnexessary or to muxh AutoTune/AutoPitch.
This is great. Thank you for this info. Definitely going to help me a lot with my mixing. I'm new so your channel has been a massive help so thanks again. Just to add when I try to make my vocals sound like they are in space I can't hear them at all.
best thing at first is to 100% clean your vocals, eq bad stuff because if you compress first you compress those bad thing too and its hard to get rid of later in mix. but great video !
Here's a free lyric Alex - "How much distance can I put, between the music and the dance? How many lines must I write to ease away the past? When you take away my vices, I've got no where left to go, so you pass on your advice, to feel the feeling and let go...."
Alex is slowly turning into DJ Kahlid..jkjkjkjk lol but Alex has every reason to hype his own productions its so fire. I love how he's able and wants to spill some of his secrets to his viewers on how to produce to the fullest with his learned and self taught best of knowledge because lets be honest. Most wont.
Hey Alex, Thank you very much for that video again, as always it’s dope 😍🙏. One question about the 3rd point : You double the main vocals but one question : is it the main vocals recorded twice or you just vopy and paste the first Audio file with the main vocal ? Let me know if my questions is clear enough 😉 Thanks a lot again for your video
Hello, I think the maximum left right level in the program you use is 65, and in Studio One the left right level is 100. In this case, what level of left right do you recommend we give harmonic vocals?
Hey. Im a singer-songwriter and am recording my own stuff now as I've had some poor producers at the studios near me... with vocals, obviously ou have the main track, your doubles (same octive and also different) and harmonies, is there a such thing as overkill (vocal layers) for rock influenced pop music?

Literally working on a college project right now and it's my first time using vocals. This video is a god send thankyou Alex!
Really wish I pursued production as a major, is it worth it?

Here's a free lyric Alex - "How much distance can I put, between the music and the dance? How many lines must I write to ease away the past? When you take away my vices, I've got no where left to go, so you pass on your advice, to feel the feeling and let go...."
How much do you charge to mix
Sir can you make a tutorial for writing cinematic scores.. That'd be great🙌
thanks alot :)
Great tips. You didn't mention who the vocalist is? Thanks
Alex is slowly turning into DJ Kahlid..jkjkjkjk lol
but Alex has every reason to hype his own productions its so fire.
I love how he's able and wants to spill some of his secrets to his viewers on how to produce to the fullest with his learned and self taught best of knowledge because lets be honest. Most wont.
where can i hear the song
When you add double vocal, how to make sure it’s not suddenly getting louder on this section?
How loud should i set the volume of doubles and harmonies?
I write piano songs. How would i set the echo and reverb for it to sound like a small room but with amazing acoustics? 🙏

If you double the same stem it can lead to phase issues so I would imagine most likely not.
