    Thumbs up! How about vocal recording. Should i record vocals in pre fader metering with all my faders at unity gain? Thanks

      You don't have to worry about fader position when you're setting input gain for recording. Setting the input gain should be done according to the meter; get the average of the signal turned up to line level (where the meter goes from green to yellow), and record. Mixing with the faders comes later.

    Great video question do you mess with the pre amp gain

    • @themixingprocess

      No. The preamp should always be set completely independently from the fader volume. You can watch this video to understand what we need/use gain for: ruclips.net/video/akt0Q4GYg3I/видео.html

    Interesting, I always mix with the mindset of keeping faders at 0 for the bulk of the process. Never thought of it as a methodology or principle or anything. It was just easier for me to keep everything controlled between the input and the panner/fader section and then just do small adjustments with the faders.

      Just be sure to not confuse controlling volume with the gain knob versus controlling it with the fader. Gain is a completely separate process from the fader volume. Many people try to keep the fader at 0 and control the volume with the gain knob, and that’s the opposite of the way consoles are designed to work.

      @@themixingprocess I know what you mean because I did it extensively in the past. :D but that's not the case, worry not. What I do depends on the instrument but the gain knob serves only to feed the channel at an appropriate level since I try to stick to analog emulations. It is possible that some fx chains have some kind of gain or volume control at some point, e.g. a clipper on a snare or the output of an amp sim.
