- This is an excerpt from The Newbies Guide to Audio Recording Awesomeness 2: Pro Recording With Reaper (www.homebrewau.... It shows you how to double an audio track. Doubling is a technique used to "thicken" a vocal sound in either music or voice-over, either on its own, or as one part in several when doing multi-part harmony.
This is the most complete video about double traking that i have ever seen. Thank you so much.
YOu're welcome! And thanks for the compliment 😃.
@Barrett Blaine Yeah, it takes longer that doing it electronically. But it's worth it, I think.
I rarely comment on any RUclips videos but feel you deserve some kudos Dave. Your videos are the only ones I've ever seen on recording and mixing (and I've watched a ton of crap) that do it without any trace of ego or trying to make its viewer feel like they should be worshipping at the feet of the sheer majesty and mystique of what the mixing Gods can do. Number 1, you don't make your audience feel inferior or not worthy Dave as many many recording and mixing videos do. Number 2, you're the only person that has ever explained vocal doubling to me in an easy and understandable way and it literally took seconds. Number 3, I love the self deprecating humour and speech bubbles. I can't stand the majority of RUclips videos regarding recording and mixing that make out its some sort of audio alchemy that only the adept can master. You demystify all the BS Dave, please make more.
Thanks Will. I really appreciate that!! - Ken
@@HomebrewAudioRecording Sorry Ken, when posting my comment I got your name wrong...that's a bit embarrassing...and I have a brother called Ken too and one called Dave!!! I kid you not.
@@wilfez7496 LOL. That's pretty amazing!
Excellent and very useful step-by-step tutorial. Thank you so much!
Thanks! Glad it was helpful!
I gave this video a like purely for the Lifehouse shout out. I appreciate the video!
Thank you very match.This helped me alot.You are legend..I saw a video that stated that duplicate only increses the volume which he was right but said there is no way to make it sound different even if you pan left/right but you explained it very well and am well informed now about offesting one duplicate to make sound different.Choice is mine wether to do another take or duplicate.I appreciate.
Thanks for the comment. Glad it helped!
Awesome.
Thanks I learned a lot 🙏🏾
You're welcome!
This is really good stuff, I'm a complainer too.
Nothing to complain about here. Gonna watch more.
Thanks Gerard!
I'm learning. Nice pace Home Brew. Thank you.
Thanks!
You were exceptional in the explanation, you're just awesome! Thank you so much!
Thanks for the kind words, Thiago! Glad it was helpful!
I guess Im asking the wrong place but does someone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account..?
I was dumb lost my password. I would appreciate any help you can give me!
@Lyle Elias Instablaster =)
@Louis Collin Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Louis Collin It worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thank you so much, you saved my account!
Thank you very much for the vídeo.
You're welcome!
Bro you might want to add the lesson number in you descriptions. I cant find lesson 1 let alone 9.
It says "excerpt" from the course. That means those lessons have been previewed here. The full course is here if you want all the lessons - www.homebrewaudio.com/tngtara2-ib/
Good job bro
Thanks!
Everything was sounding great and then the one track started to get behind the other one very noticeably. What now please?
You mean while you were recording? Or when you were listening back? And also, was it a steady slow-down? In other words, did it start completely in sync? And then little by little it got further and further behind - sort of drifting? Either way, it sounds like you have a latency issue. Can you tell me what kind of interface you are using?
great to learn I'm not the only one who doubles .. thanks.
You're welcome! And far from it. It's almost more strange NOT to have some doubling on vocals.
.. I thought it was common to double? lol
@@freddylive4181 It is. I just read my reply and I'm claiming lack of caffeine :-P. I changed the wording to mean what I MEANT to say.
That's ok lol .. I've been there lol .. Thanks again .. great video .. very encouraging
Ace! thanku for the laughs and great info!
You're welcome! Glad it was both helpful and humorous. gotta lighten up the mood on some of this stuff.
Yes, definitely! Thanks again :)
Where is Lesson 9?
I'm starting to record some rap songs. I have the lyrics already but ITS TOO HARD to sing right and make my voice "combine" with the beat. Tips /Videos tutorials for singing/vocal ?
Thaaanks
This video is an excerpt from the full course, which is here: www.homebrewaudio.com/the-newbies-guide-to-audio-recording-awesomeness-2/
Great explainations!
Thanks Matthias!
thank god you circled where the S is on my keyboard.
Right? Nobody EVER uses that key :-P.
Great video! Can you get the same vocal effect for live music? I just got a digital mixer and I’m exploring the possibility of sending the live vocal mic to a DAW for processing then back to the mixer to go to the mains. Is this possible or am I dreaming in colour? Thanks!
Oh there are much better and easier ways to do this live using outboard gear such as the TC Helicon Duplicator Vocal Doubling Effects Pedal. You could probably do this live with a mixer and a DAW. But you'd have to make sure you set up the monitoring and routing, which could get quite complex. For live stuff, I think outboard gear works much better.
I have the free version. But it doesnt have any of the snap options or any of those options available in the top left corner
There are no differences in any of the versions - free all the way to the commercial license. So if those tools are not visible, it's simply because you have a setting you need to change somewhere. It might be as easy as clicking on the vertical line that divides the space under the toolbar where the track controls go when you hav a track, and the area on the right where the tracks and audio actually go. Try dragging that line to the right. they might just be hidden.
Great vid. The question I have is... Are you ready for this?
😃
Hello, how much do you charge to mix a song on reaper
That would depend on how complex the mix is and how much needed to be done. Its probably best to contact me from the site here if you want more details: www.homebrewaudio.com/legal/contact/
I wasn't ready for that rapping 😂
Yeah, well. At least I acknowledge I suck :-).
Yeah well, maybe rapping isn't your thing but your singing voice is pretty good and you sure know your way around Reaper :)
@@officialWWM Thanks!
Why don't you just copy and paste to 4 new tracks and cut out from there ?
Because copying and pasting will not give you the right effect. The timing and other differences between 2 (or more) separate individual performances will give your ears the cues it needs to think there are more people providing a fuller sound. Plus if/when you pan these different versions, those differences allow for a true illusion for your brain of a wide stereo field. If you try to do that with multiple copies of the same file, it won't work. The same exact audio doubled is just a louder version of the same thing. And if you try to pan them for stereo, the brain will still only hear the same thing dead-center. There need to be differences. You CAN create differences by slightly separating the timing of 2 identical performances - by say, moving one forward by 50 ms or so. That will allow at least the ability to spread the vocals wider.
@@HomebrewAudioRecording thanks for the explanation. would you mind doing a vid comparing the two different ways ? thanks
@@WONANDONESPORTS I'll add that to the list. Thanks for the idea!
@@WONANDONESPORTS I did that video! Here is is :-). ruclips.net/video/U1PsSWprGo4/видео.html
Is Readelay the same effect?
Not really. You CAN get a doubling effect with a delay, yes. But a delay is really for causing an echo type of an effect. If you make the delay time short enough, you can get something close to doubling. You CAN get 3rd-party plugins that do "ADT" (automatic double-tracking). But as with other things like harmony, nothing beats the real thing :-).
❤🔥
And what about metal music?We dont do it in metal?I do.
Did I say we don't do it in metal? I don't know why not. Absolutely do it for any kind of music really.
What does panned mean
You can "pan" a track to place it left or right. So if you pan it 100% left, it will sound like it's coming only out of the left speaker, and vice versa for the right side. If there is no panning (paned to 0%), it will sound like it is coming from straight ahead.
@@HomebrewAudioRecording thank u , do you know how I can get my bottom of my screen to look similar to what's on top when I add tracks because I made a mistake and I want to see the mix down below ? What can I press ?
@@sabinashar I don't know exactly what you mean. But you could try to go to View and then put a check mark by Mixer and/or Transport and see if that does it.
Im talking about the mixer which basically is replicating when u turn the volume down on the tracks it's in the picture u use for this video
@@sabinashar Right. That's what I meant - go to the menu bar at top and click View. In the dropdown, make sure there is a check mark by "Mixer."
Good video bro! Whitest rapping I have ever hear though 😆
Thanks And I agree. Partially it was as a joke. But yeah :-).
