Superb tutorial!

I can't believe how natural this sounds. Thanks man!

It's little things like this that make me love Reaper. Seriously the most versatile daw out there. I could use any of them and I chose Reaper. And I paid for it, gladly. They earned that money. Many times over.

Awesome Casper - thank you for taking the time(especially as english is probably not your first language) to carefully explain how to do this :) I struggled with VR years ago in Profools and never got close to the precision and transparency this method enables. I work with huge libraries of spoken vocal - leveling etc, so I now have this method set up as my go to template. With much gratitude for the incalculable time you have saved me to do a much better job! :)

Very nice technique!! Thanks Casper. The vocals now sounds evened out and smooth after I apply this :)

Just amazing. You saved my life thank you!

Wow awesome man been using Reaper for a long time and never tried this out. I love how you moved the send track by 30ms to give the daw some time to respond. I have used Melda Productins MAutoVolume, demoed vocal rider, and used hornets Auto Gain Pro plugin and this is by far the cleanest results I have used. I used an extreme vocal example and the gain went from -5 to -12db with very transparent results. Also the very top slider when your tweaking the parameter modulation allows you to slide it to the right which will compensate for gain loss. Thanks man, new subscriber.

You're genius!! Thank you so much for this tutorial! It took me a while to figure out how to make it work, but after I did it really helped me. Thanks!!

Don't get me wrong, I think it is awesome to find ways around things, its how we fix things that are broken, Diagnostics. However this is almost like driving 100 miles to get gas because its $.10 a gallon cheaper than the station around the corner.

This is a wonderful use of your available resources. Very impressive, Kudos to you!

Sound great. Nice tip. Thanks for sharing!

Very good info! Thanks very much!

Great video and many thanks!

Killer-trick! NICE,thanks!

Just tried it out & works perfect, thanks. I'm wondering if boosting the lower transients will sound better than reducing the highs (positive direction instead of negative).

Wow! I actually find u looking for vocal riders, awesome trick dude, that's literally gold, i maybe never found this by myself if u got another trick like this using reaper please upload, with this quality its matter of luck that u got viral, thanks a lot dude!!

i just discover this. is there a way to do this in Logic X?

Great - thanks !

sorry, regarding the question I asked, I only had to put the automation in write mode and then in the envelope modulation section put the first fader that appears in default, this can help you to see how the behavior of the enhanced vocal rider casper showed us

This is amazing. I wish I saw this video before I bought the vocal rider.

Cool tutorial, going to try this out soon!

hi casper, Please help me how can i récord the movements of the gain plugin into a volume pre fx envelope, because I want to make some modifications still (i use reaper) I tried from the track that had the gain plugin but nothing happened

AWESOME

Awesome tutorial.

No entiendo, porque pasar tanto trabajo??

can we use any other eq for say reaeq?

Smart trick bro

What pluggin in the reaper is that?

interesting, i watched it and went straight to waves get vocal rider wich saves me a lot of time and get me where i want quick. effortlessly if u will. when you need to produce fast the less manipulations the better.

You can not legally use Reaper forever, you need to pay after 60 days

Good idea in theory but I cannot get this working with my levels at all, been tweaking it for ages and still no luck. Surely working with the VST will be much simpler and less hassle.

Love this trick...what plugin in reaper can i use???

YOO THANK YOU!

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I used Blue Cat's Gain Suite plugin instead of the plugin you used, and it works great! By adjusting the parameters accordingly, I was able to keep a good level of dynamics, where there is a level difference between soft and energetic parts, but it is much more controlled. BTW I saw some comments saying that now it's possible to use this method without the need for having a duplicate track for modulating the parameter. How to do that?

Well thank you, nice work, good bye vocal rider!

Hey I’m tryin to do this on logic can you help ?

Hi man, it is a good idea for a video. But i think it lacks and falls short, not because of you. It is because, i think most of us who wanna use vocal rider do it because it is simple and do not take time and a lot of work.

funny, before I knew anything about any dynamics/mixing/compression I used this trick in FL Studio (this actually is more comprehensive and accurate) to level vocals! but yeah are there any other DAWs that offer this?

Is Vola2 a substitute vor vocal rider?

taa

Can you do this on logic?

or just wait until vocal rider is on sale for $29 or $334 like it is right now

But there's one good reason for Vocal "Raider". Just insert to the track -DONE. NO tinkering and head scratchinng with Reaper. Yes, you can do everything with Reaper (my main DAW as well), but sometimes it's just easier to use a non convoluted plugin or even another DAW to achieve your goal before programming/thinking(head-scratching has spoiled a good creative moment. But still... I love Reaper a lot!!!

You can use the trial for 60 day only. And then if you are honest and want to continue using it you have to buy it.

Looks too tedious. Not to mention the lack of enthusiasm. I’m gonna stick with VR

Why BUY vocal rider, FFS just torrent waves lol?

2 complicated

Too much processing for me. This track just need automation volume...

This is way too technical. Sorry bro.

Jesus... wake up and get to the point.
