High quality for sure! With all these rappers (Ye, Kendrick, Travis Scott, Drake etc) vocal chains which Neve 1073 are their engineers using? Is it the SPX that you show on here or is it the 1073 Classic?
I definitely see an industry standard for vocal chains. It actually makes sense especially if there’s multiple recording sessions of later features you want to have a consistent sound colouring when it comes to vocals. Every big commercial or private high end studio should have these in there tool boxes. Or……Have the best modeling mic and related plug ins to closely match. I love this channel. It’s really helpful bro 💯
The Best MIC and VOCAL CHAIN ever: IS THE ONE With a GREAT ARTIST on the mic. The one with a great producer, engineer tweaking it no matter how cheap or expensive. Kendrick Lamar will sound amazing on any mic, vocal chain period....Some of MIKE DEANs artists have sent him vocals done in garageband w a mid level blue mic...
Townsend labs Sphere L22, Rode Nt 1 into a Presonus Io station 24c, Volt 476p, or UAD Apollo Duo, running into a 610 A/ or B plug in depending on the style of the song. Or the Neve 88R Channel strip plug in.
As much as we focusing on vocal chains, I have this question, what camera do you use to capture your video recording and which software do you use for editing the video?
As mentioned before in another video I use the TLM103 in my vocal chain I'm very interested in using a tube microphone, any suggestions? I have a low male voice. Looking at TF51 or something of the caliber. I'm very interested in know what Kevin Gates vocal chain is bc he records a lot on the go as well as in the studio. I'm curious if his chain stays the same Thanks for another great video! -Trevon Jamar
Oh nice. I see. I've heard nothing by overwhelming great things about the TF51. It's a telefunken, lol. You can't really go wrong. Awesome. I'm actually doing some investing tonight and will definitely see what's going over there with Kevin Gates in his sessions.
Keep in mind, the TLM 103 is no joke, there are many tube mic. Many big names use the TLM 103.. its a great mic..There are some great tube mics out there, mojave audio...
yep, I have many stories from top engineers where they recorded album vocals into an mbox, no other mic pres w things like and sm7 or TLM 103... There is no such thing as better... Is a les paul better then a strat, or is a cheap danelectro better than a gretsch it doesnt matter. Prince used everything from 200.00 cheap guitars to expensive ones.. Different tool, same result..
Yea the mic 🎤 is the most expensive thing on this list. So what’s that say? The mic is valued very high next to the talent on the boards and the talent on the mic. Atmosphere and pre amp plays a big part too
@@archiebeatz Adeles Hello song was recorded on Apollo twin using apollos unison 610 mic pre A,, as was Billie Eilish whole 1st album. I own both an avalon 737 tube pre and a chandler tg 2 pre. However, I've done tests with the Unison U/A audio plugin versions of the avalon and chandler and the plugins sound just as good.
Very similar to my own vocal chain atm. I got the SA47 mk2 going to the HA73 going through the SA76 D+ That u47 sound is def very interesting... vintage, thick, full and detailed
Make sure you’re not hitting your preamp too hot. Don’t compress a lot going in. And get an ADAT cable, you want to bypass the pre amps on the twin so you can just get the analogue to digital conversion. Troubleshoot
@@ankeviousoliver4472 there’s various talk about the line input bypassing the pre amps on the twin. From what I hear, that is an alternative to ADAT, but then again I haven’t tried it.
Thank you all for watching and supporting my channel. What do you all think about Kendrick's Vocal Chain?
High quality for sure!

who here after the beef
Good stuff
I would love to know if you by any chance, researched the vocal chain of DMX. I wonder what was used to capture his gritty voice on those hit records.
u87, avalon 737, distressor, Nas used a similar chain since God Son frequently, Ludacris as well. Think Nas was in the Sony 800 though
U NEVER DISAPPOINT
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Yo can you do a Jcole chain? Would love to see that one
It's coming brother!
Can u do one of Verse simmons?

just added ssl six channels to my mix bus and it sounds sooooo good lol .. J Cole has a very interesting vocal chain. check his out next
The pre amps are clean asf . I preferred them over my Apollo
610 B is great on dark stuff.
Yes, I love the 610B

Dope vid as usual! Give us a review of the AKG C414 XLII🙏🏿
what u think about Lewitt lcd
1040
Can you show us your uad vocal chain?
Bro I would love to hear Nas vocal chain on t was written. That sound was different. Felt like I was sitting in a subway station in February lol

I just traded in my tlm103 for a WA-8000 I’ll let you know how it sounds !
@@Chefboyarcezz please do! Let me know how it's sounds on your vocals and if I could hear the reference that would be dope too!
The 103 is great mic on the go my man.

J Cole’s vocal chain please 🙏🏽
On the case now 🙌🏾
I want to see the vocal chain for bad bunny
Thx for the info 👍🏽, but is there a better preamp than the neve 1073? 🤔
“Better” is subjective. Neve is used on almost every single artist right now. Avalon has been phased out with the early Atlanta scene.

He definitely uses Tube
What about Larry June vocal chain?
It would be dope if you can include the audio interfaces these artists use
Ali use an Apollo x8p with Kendrick. Noted as well
@@archiebeatz Adeles Hello song was recorded on Apollo twin using apollos unison 610 mic pre A,, as was Billie Eilish whole 1st album. I own both an avalon 737 tube pre and a chandler tg 2 pre.

Snoop vocal chain, Dj Quik vocal chain, E-40 vocal chain, what was Biggies vocal chain
I want to see Nav and The weekend vocal Chain!!!
They use the vintage 1073 not the new 1073 totally different sound.
a weird one, but i'd be curious to know celine dion vocal chain HAHA
Mojave MA200 > Phoenix Ascent 2 > Bluey > Clarette
Bro call KDot's name Kendrick to Kendick XD
Dope video bro! Would love to see a Russ / jack harlow vocal chain! Their vocals are SÚPER CRISPY
Jack used a 251 for his latest album with Pharrell
Very similar to my own vocal chain atm. I got the SA47 mk2 going to the HA73 going through the SA76 D+
That u47 sound is def very interesting... vintage, thick, full and detailed
My main question I'd do they eq the vocal at all on the way in. I try to but man it's hard to monitor yourself and eq.
Nope unless you been working with that artist for years then maybe
I just dropped $3,000 just watching this video LOL... And yes I did get a bonus so I can do that..
Cause I’m Happy! Or “Nothing you idiots Dr. Dre’s dead, he’s locked in my basement”.
Jim Jones
If your doing something slower as well.
Why not do some K-pop, maybe Blackpink’s vocal chain?
Hey Jason! Thanks for the recommendation. I will have to look into that for sure.
@@archiebeatz Yes please! And also Afro Pop and Caribbean big names. You are the best bro 💯
Lil Nas X, Jonas Brothers, Zara Larsson
WA73 into WA2A into apollo twin x. Gain staged correctly and sounds like crap. I'm doing something wrong.

@@bigstevedzn2353 thanks fam. I'll try that.
@@bigstevedzn2353 I don't get using a ADAT cable after looking deeper. I am running line in to bypass the twin preamp.
@@ankeviousoliver4472 there’s various talk about the line input bypassing the pre amps on the twin. From what I hear, that is an alternative to ADAT, but then again I haven’t tried it.
1176 to the LA2A…I wouldn’t recommend any Neve unless it’s the Vintage Neve or Bae 1073
The microphone is like food to an athlete. You can do all the workouts you want but it starts with feeding your body correctly.
