      I have a sennheiser e835 , it's a handheld live performance mic but it sounds great with the pre amp on with my interface, if i put a muffle as a popper and use your 8 inch distance and record in the middle of the room would that work to?

      please sing your style my lyrics:
      Deep in my mind
      I erased your number
      From my phone
      But I cant delete
      your smile from my mind,
      it is deep in my mind
      now i cured my heart
      and put on all stitches
      they are scars of love
      that I will keep hidden
      Chorus:
      Deep in my mind
      Deep in my mind
      verse 2
      and if I see you again ,
      somewhere around
      I’ ll fade away
      And mix in the crowd
      ‘cause my beaten (toren) heart
      Won’t stand with (survive)
      Another wound
      Now I am ready to start all
      From the beginning
      But your smile again
      Appears in my mind
      Chorus:
      Deep in my mind
      Deep in my mind

I'm in Rio, just managed to put my 2-months old daughter to sleep after a day at the office and started my first recording because of you. Can't thank you enough. I wish all the best and please keep the videos coming! Abraço

    Putting a little reverb on the vocal track is generally a good idea so that the singer doesn't have to hear their voice dry. Helps to make them a little more comfortable hearing their voice.

      My Mic wears a hat at all times. At first it was just to keep the dust off the mic when not in use, but just fooling around with the mic one day I was doing a test record and just didn't take the hat off. When I went to record it for real I took the hat off and found that it sounded better with the hat left on. Apparently the hat was blocking some of the ambient room sound and made the recording sound quieter. Now I always record with a hat on the mic and it sounds just as good in the treated room as it does just sitting in my living room.

    One thing THIS series exemplifies that is often overlooked, especially by those who don't create, is that YOU are working from a song that is in your head. When you started with the drum tracks and bass track it was...interesting...but as you added layers the song began to take shape in the DAW as it obviously existed in your HEAD!
    Great series, learning a lot, motivated to get with the program and put what's in MY head onto tracks.

    Man i cannot thank you enough for having this channel and doing all these videos to help us. I know personally these have really been a HUGE help in making mixing so much easier, and even recording. I was getting so frustrated with my mixes trying to figure out what i was doing wrong, but after watching all of your videos, especially those on Vocals and microphones, i feel so much more comfortable attacking songs again and getting back to doing what i love. Thank you again for all the help brothaman!

    I hate that I just now found your videos. I watched all 6 of this particular recording and the way you taught it, made it so understandable. It inspired me to make some of my own music. Luckily, I just so happened to have the Scarlett Focusrite interface, which made it a little easier to follow along. Your song sounded great! Can't wait to start watching your other videos.

    Wait, why is direct monitoring not an option here? I always mute the pro tools track and monitor myself directly from my mixer to avoid latency.

    • @TheYrthenarc
      @TheYrthenarc 7 лет назад +4

      Yeah, it would seem logical to just flick that switch that says "DIRECT MONITOR" right above the headphone connector.

    I'm on a desktop. Fan is running, and it definitely comes up in the mix. Is it ok to put myself in a small closet filled with clothing? I'm limited on options. I have the exact same tools you have, except my mic is a $100 Audio Technica condenser mic.
