While I dig most of it, the vocals are far too quiet for my taste. Almost can't hear them at all!

[wizprodux]

@TokyoZeplin Agreed

[FadedMindz210]

Why can't you make this video using only the standard plugins that come with pro tools? Some people don't have all the plugins you got, dude!

[wizprodux]

@FadedMindz210 Because most professionals don't limit themselves with just the stock plug-ins. And because when you mix a song, you should go by what works for that song. Sometimes it takes 5 plug-ins, or no plug-ins at all..

[FadedMindz210]

@wizprodux True, but obviosely this is a tutorial for beginners, right? So, beginners don't have all those plugins you got, just the stock plugins that come with pro tools. And I figure that professionals should be able to utilize the stock plugins to make the mix sound very clean.

@FadedMindz210 Not necessarily. Most of these techniques are for advanced users. Most of the basic stuff I don't explain; it does extend into some advanced Bussing techniques

[henrymartyn]

@wizprodux I think in the final mastered product...it is balanced enough to enjoy the music and vocals equally.

[yuriosoy]

[jtluk]
