how would i mix singing vocals? like hooks(chours)

[popgnner12]

@ladreamer09 it depends on wat type of song your doing, hooks in alotta RnB/singing hip hop sonngs usually are stacked vocals with similar or different effects to them, but the mixing process depends on the song...

[xpoondiggy]

thank man, you really helped me

[popgnner12]

@xpoondiggy no prob, if yu need any help/tutorials mixing/mastering just hmu or I'll do it for yu free first time...

[popgnner12]

easier ways? This is way is fast and easy..and mastering is done after the mixing, this is just mixing vocals...and everything yu just said i explained in the video...

[popgnner12]

In the dynamics processing instead of choosing rap vocals, pick smooth vocal instead, and In the FFT filter pick Mastering- Gentle and Wide...everything else is the same...and yu mite wanna add some extra reverb to it aswell

@Thejakeanator18 i thought i was the only one who noticed that shit peaking

[Cherlique]

why would you do destructive editing? you do realize you can add all the fx to the bus. that leaves the original vocal unchanged.

[Thejakeanator18]

beats too loud see that meter on the side? well with that meeter goes all the way up and turns those 2 ;little squares red its going over 0 db which you dont want it to it will make your shit sound retarded like some recorded shit from a webcam no joke and it sounds the same both ways because you suck lol nno offence but u need to turn the sound down on the beat u dont want it at 0 db wtf retarded and you dont want vocals over -6db cause the effects you put on them will make the vocals louder

[kdotman]

when i put on the dynamics processing it fucks up the sound, makes it go all skippy and shit, why?

[daTDxp]

good video man

[DaeVeeMusic]

you didn't master shit in here. just poorly mixed. the world is mine

@Jakil44 Each track is different.

[Jakil44]

Do you have to do that to every track.

[DaeVeeS]

@DaHood29 that might have been the studio reverb. Don't apply it if you don't like it

@ipainter let 'em know!
