That multiband *really* changed the sound of those vocals

Aw man…! Such beautiful artistry from Finneas. Thank you for walking us mortals through this so clearly.

I’m actually impressed with the relative simplicity of the mix. This is a great example of knowing how to use the stock plug ins to great effect, and of course some timely automation. Thanks for the breakdown Streaky🤟

Thanks for breaking this apart.... Starting out in this home recording and getting an idea of how these are done helps a lot! Many thanks and new subscriber!

This was interesting ! I have me own vocal chain but love playing with my vocals when recording ! Some cool little tricks here I’m going to try out 🤘 thanks for the video

Great analysis Streaky!

Fantastic! Thanks for this. I've gotta dust off the multiband and start using it more.

Seriously I learned so much just from these 2 videos. Working with jam bands they don't do much studio stuff. But my girls band wants to mix a album that's not a live show. Everything we do we do live. The recordings of each show is available right after the shows over. All mixing and audio is done live usually. So I'm not in my usual wheel house with a mixed and multi take production. The automation stuff was very informative. Can't wait to dig deep into your videos. I started out modifying guitar pedals and building modular synth components. Then got a job doing sound for a local jam band that does pretty well. Now it seems I need to learn the finer points of audio engineering. I think I found a good place to start.

Thanks Streaky! I thought the mutiband on the vocals also pushed them back too, lovely sound, I've always wondered how to get rid of boxiness, learning all the time.

honestly been looking for this video for months. glad youtube algo brought me here ❤ i am beyond stoked!

This is so helpful! Definitely gonna try the multi-band trick!

WOW... the tricks I was looking for. Thanks Streaky

RIGHT ON TIME!!! Thank you so much bro 🥰🙏🎧🔊💜💜💜💨💨

Wow) Seems like these 2 videos gave me more understanding of vocal mixing than the last year of struggling and ears bleeding trying to mix my own vocal)))) Thanx man for your content! Apprecialte)

Super video Streaky. I really like how you broke it down. Everything straight to the point, no baggage 😂 So now i'm wondering how much further processing was done if this was sent off to be mixed. If the track already has alot of processing done, where would a mix engineer go from there ? Was this the final mix shown here ?

I'm gonna start using more stock logic plugins where I can because honestly you save so much cpu and they sound damn good. I have the fab filter stuff and I still reach for the stock eq everytime cause its just so integrated. If you're doing simple things and not looking for the sound of a specific plugin, stock is king.

Superb vid, thanks man!

You're a great teacher streaky thanks!

brilliant walkthrough,! Cheers!

Great piece of knowledge here. Thank you!

Cool video. Cheers!

2:30 and 4:18 dude casually altering the mix without noticing it. First the Q of the LPF gets bumped up from .71 to 1.3 (making the low boost significantly bigger),, then the Q of the yellow band goes from .3 to .1

love learning all this. Thank you.

That thumbnail! 🤣 Brilliant

Great content/info.

Well F Me! That was far more useful than I expected! Thanks as always Streakz!!

THAT WAS FAST! THANKS A LOT!

Man.. that multi-band comp on the vocal stack makes a huge difference.

i need to bookmark this video.. there is alot of good advice in here

love this !

Definitely appreciate the content, but it goes to show you it’s primarily the character of the vocalist and the quality of the mic. Nothing out of the ordinary here; pretty standard.

Hiya Streaky thanks for this interesting...would have been great if you had showed us the D-esser setup as well...

Awesome video! What about de-essing in the mix bus? Isn't this effecting the other tracks while maybe not necessary?

Hey Streaky! Would you consider going into rappers? Not necessarily the rappers who have been covered a million times on KZfaq already- except if you think there is something mixing from the people who have tried in the past. Thank you!

Hi Streaky, thank you for these insights. If i could ask for one additional step? When comparing sounds between compression on and off, it would be helpful to match levels.. I've notice when comparing the sounds, on and off, the biggest change is level. Thanks Brian

So Logic native plugs are what where actually used? Nice! Goes to show you can win Grammies and whatnot with stock plug ins. P.S. Did you change the Kids for these new big black ones?

Yes the multiband makes a huge difference

Thanks very informative!

Hahahha that look on your face when you put the MB on 🤣🤣🤣

Streaky nice desk , what is that desk ? Please , I want something like that for my studio

"Exposing" something that is readily available on the internet anyway 🤣🤣🤣

How to get this project... I cant see IT on Logic Pro anymore...thank you...

hey man i was wondering if you could do a vocal production video on Lily Meola Got Your Way if so please let me know so i can watch thank u

That multiband compressor is a real powerful tool!

Hey, great video Streaky! Does anyone know which microphone they used to record this song?

thanks man u are ... idk what i have to say but really thank u so much

you gotta keep doin these.. people sleeping on these

Good vid but u really dont show the whole chain , are all the tracks going to a bus after the chain on each vocal? And what other reverb was on them tracks besides the one in the layered vocals

Billie and Finneas are young, but holy smokes they are fullblown pros. Genius!

Awsome I don’t understand one thing though Thé multiband on thé stack Why do the vocals sound brighter ?? Isn’t it squashing the mids and high mids ? Maybe there’s a make up gain on those bands being compressed ?

great videos

Cool Channel!

billie is smooth asf daamn

Wow lovely voice but lots brilliant processing, how do they pull it off live?

Do these get mixed further??? Like do they then send this off?

I can ear the Autotune. Is it printed on the audio files or rolling in realtime?

What monitor are you using here?

All with basic plugins…. Gotta love it

no autotune?

Interesting. Thank you! You did not decrease breathing at all. It is also very natural for Billie Eilish's style of singing.

How about uploading those tracks? 😀

Very nice

Nice 😁

yeah, i actually prefer the logic "vintage" to uad. don't tell anyone, doe.

:O omg ! exposed !? no way dude, now everyone has the secret ingredients, everyone going to have gold standard vocal mixes worldwide ! This is crazy stuff.

thanks sir

Interesting that Melodyne didn't make an appearance - a testament to Eilish's world class vocal skills.

Gift me one of your speakers... Cos one of my m-audio bx5a got spoilt please

I don’t get what the “EXPOSED” bit of the title is all about?

subtitulos porfavor :( subtitles please friend :(

you could process your voice over a bit more to help since im listening on headphones and your mix is pretty harsh. Otherwise to be honest i find your analysis to be incredibly helpful

Again, perfect video, no bullshit.....

Jeez you must have some serious back pain leaning over like that all day

Gotta appreciate your click bait game on these two parts, in the thumbnails and headers! And resurfacing this Logic demo project after some time! But it is true that many people have not noticed it or just don't have logic. =)

It is very interesting. But. The tracks that you are showing us already have obviously undergone some treatment before already. The "dry" signal is already flawless, the tracks pretty much cleaned up, there definitely has been some compression applied while tracking the vocals, plus they have been heavily pitch corrected. What you show us here is just 50% of all the work that has to be put into that record to make it sound the way it does.. It was an interesting video nonetheless.

I think she said in an interview that she uses Autotune and that she liked the sound of it??

He by mistake messed up the HP on Lead vocal...

🥓.

Hey, can you please share the vocal presets/patches in this video part 1 and part 2?

I feel sorry for all you stuck in Logic. The automation looks just terrible... I am fully convinced the automation in Cubase is superior to Logic.

I kept waiting for you to highlight that hideous and really quite obvious whistle in the main vocal that is maybe around 3k, but you never did... Saving that for part 3..?

is it really worth it though? He's no professional at all. Why is the music industry taking these celebrities for some kind of experts they obviously are not?

Seeing your bad posture sitting in that chair looking down at the screen already makes my neck hurt. What a bad example!

Does garageband have a multipressor or do you know of a good plugin? If you didn’t have a multi presser, could you get them to blend just as lovely if you mixed it down so all the tracks were together then took a reg compressor to the mixed down file?
