Can you make a tutorial on basic volume control? I dont know how loud the average song on spotify is supposed to be. Sometimes when the mix is over, the bounce comes out too loud or too quiet. Is there like a universal agreed volume for professional music, and how do I get that?
It just seems like every professional song is never too loud or too quiet, like every one has agreed on what db to make there stuff and I dont know it.
@@disaster9251 Loudness Units relative to Full Scale LUFS stands for Loudness Units relative to Full Scale or Loudness Units Full Scale (i.e., the maximum level a system can handle.) It's a standardized measurement of audio loudness that factors human perception and electrical signal intensity together. Now go and do your own research so it makes sense to YOU! That's the only way you will learn instead of constantly looking for easy answers to something you may be clueless to. And you're welcome.
Hey bro. Pull up a reference track and compare. You want to make sure your volume levels are in the ball park before even adding effects/processing. 1.) Gain stage (give yourself headroom) you don’t want any instruments going above 75% of the meter to provide head room. 2.) static mix (turn down all faders and slowly turn up each fader/mess with panning until it all until it feels right I’d say 85% right) 3.) Pull up a reference track to try and get your static mix as professional as possible. Turn down the reference track around 10DB to account for the processing that’s been done. Remember that you won’t sound as good and it’s soul crushing. But you wanna compare with the absolute best of the best. Remember a reference track is a professional track that’s within your genre/style that’s already on Spotify/Apple Music etc. Cheers
What is the difference between using a Trim/Gain vs the Volume Fader to lower the main track? How will that register when you Master the overall beat of the song? Is it because the beat has already been technically mixed or mastered.
I prefer lowering the gain on the beat audio because you can visually see how big the audio file is… this is because producers master their beats leaving no room for the vocals.
Gain staging is simple. Just use a gain function (not your volume faders) to bring the elements of your mix up or down in volume to create an initial balance. Sometimes this can be as simple and turning down the beat so it doesn’t overpower your vocals. Gain staging = volume balancing before you start to mix, to make the mix go smoother.
You may need to save your first patch. Just put some plugins on a chain and hit save in the bottom right of the library to save as a patch. File type should be .patch
I never knew logic had such good stock plugins
You did an amazing job describing the mixing process here in an understandable way, and the artist is rad too! Good lyrics & excellent recording
Thank you my friend

Spotify is -14LUFS. But -9LUFS seems to be the standard these days.

I needed this ! Perfect timing, the algorithm must have brought you to me . Thanks .
Glad it was helpful!
MUCH LOVE ❤️🔥 Always fun to watch
Can you do a video where you explain how the Equalizer, Compressor and everything a person normally would mix with work?
I have a few videos where I explain each one
@@Baywood oh thank you🤩
Keep it coming man. Your videos are helping SOOO much. Much love 🙏
Thank you! Will do!
Wow you looks so different from 5 years ago. I am assuming you are doing a lot better. I love your tutorials keep it up my man
Nice Tutorial Homie!👍🏾🎼😄
Huge fan bro 🔥🔥
Thanks for watching bro!
@@Baywood of course bro always
Just wondering, do you also offer presets for EBM, harsh electro industrial vocals?
Absolutely 🔥
U just gave real sauce 😅
are these pre sets updated with the new logic pro x updates
Yes

man where can i found the free presets that u sad in the descripition?
they're in the description - vocalsauce.com/gift
thanks@@Baywood
changing the bpm made the whole track sound off, what did i do wrong?
You have to do it when you start mixing
Does Vocal Sauce 3 work well with a Shure SM7B? I'm asking because it's not a condenser mic and I find EQing this mic a bit challenging.
100% that’s the mic I use
Can you make a video on gain staging please?
Gain staging is simple. Just use a gain function (not your volume faders) to bring the elements of your mix up or down in volume to create an initial balance. Sometimes this can be as simple and turning down the beat so it doesn’t overpower your vocals. Gain staging = volume balancing before you start to mix, to make the mix go smoother.
@@Baywood thank you
Let’s go!
