This is the last time you'll have to search for "how to mix vocals to a 2 track beat".
Kevin "Black Pearl" McCloskey gives his A-Z approach when he's only got a 2 Track beat to work with.
Considering he got his first, Number 1 Billboard Charting Album ("KIRK" by Da Baby) that were mostly 2 Track beats, we'd say he knows a thing or two about this topic.

new to mixing and my jaw dropped when you show'd you could side chain eq the 2 track to pillow the vocals. I appreciate that GEM!!!

@adriantm8572 5 ай бұрын

lets say the low-end is very heavy, should i decrease the attack instead, what about sustain, nothing mentioned about it

@Kevin-rb3lv 5 ай бұрын

Great question. You can just bring some of the transient detail out in the top to balance out the bottom end. I wouldn’t recommend taking it away with a transient shaper because you’re going to lose some punch at the mastering stage BUT every situation is different. Sustain is really useful on individual sounds but I find there’s too much information happening in a 2 track to really isolate what you want it to affect so I typically leave it alone. Hope that helps!

Learned alot off of this video. Would you soft clip the 2 track instrumental?

@kevinmccloskey48 4 ай бұрын

I would not typically, bordering on never. Most two tracks are already over compressed so soft clipping them will cause you to lose headroom and dynamics (even when clipping is presented as a way to get loudness without sacrificing dynamics, but not exactly the case) the goal is to get more dynamic range out of the beat and not less. if I do use a clipper it would be in the mastering stage not directly on the two track but you never know. If I needed to I would.

@xaronwhite5376 4 ай бұрын

@kevinmccloskey48 Thank you Great response by the way... So if you soft clip on the mix bus or mastering stage is there a certain amount of clipping you aim for or is it just until it sounds punchy?
