Great I used to do the opposite in my mix by using side chain compression on the one that is supposed to trigger off the compression but now I get it clear

I noticed it also adds a bit of a rhythmic quality to the whole song! Very cool.

Awesome. I like sidechain ducking also on groups to make way for the Lead vox without adding the flavor of compression.

Hi Musician on a Mission, do you have a guide for different kind of noise gating/removing/reducing? Like how and when to use a gate vs expander vs remover (Brusfri, iZotope, ERA, etc.)?

Just a side note (pun intended) if you compress a wet reverb signal it can get quieter, but the tone and decay of it may also seem different/longer etc.

Thank you for the vocal mixing cheat sheet! When using a vocal thickening trick with vocal doubler, does it mean you don't need to record the lead twice anymore as a double? :o)

@billesposito2112 2 жыл бұрын

In my opinion your always gonna get better result with a doubled track . Even 2 extra with them panned right and left but not all the way . I like to keep a little information in the other speaker. Having the vocal come out of more places just makes it that much wider. Of course your Lead Vox panned center .A good trick I use for adding doubles is too take yourself out of the headphones. Just leave the one your'e trying to copying the headphones. Loop it sing it over and over for a few minutes . When you finally record them leave the monitoring the same. Just the main vocal your copying in the headphones. Your timing will be so much better not hearing the two but hearing the main and FEELING the double .If you need to hear what your singing a little just slide one side of your headphones back a little off one ear. I was blown away how good this works.

Thank you. I've just watched several videos by different KZfaqrs on sidechain compression and yours seems to go best into the "why"s. None of you seem to be touching that Side Chain button over on the right. Do you just use the defaults for that or is that a whole 'nother video?

@conrow1157 2 жыл бұрын

How to handle the thing when you bounce single tracks for the post mix that receiving sidechain signals? Cause you need to mute the vocals for example while you bounce the sidechain compressed guitars, but then you don’t get the sidechain signal. Maybe via a bus? Or are there any better solutions?

I've mixed songs with vocals that were recording in a pro studio using the Apollo Twin and the mix was on the same level as billboard songs. But when use the same exact same vocal chain at home with the Scarlett Solo and blue blue bird mic the vocals never really fit in the mix good. The vocals sound thin and i have to drown it with reverb to get it to sound good. I don't understand the good gear doesn't matter saying. Yes i agree its more about the ear less about the gear but it seems that there's a certain point where you hit cap on how good you can get budget gear to sound. Whats yalls take on this?

For vocals gear matters a lot in my experience.
