    This is encouraging as someone who is learning how to scream. I’m always comparing my vocals to my favorite vocalists after they’ve been edited and processed. Raw vocals are a lot different than the finished product

      Yup. It can be dangerous to try to push as hard as it sounds like they are after processing

    I think the title of this video doesn't clearly represent the content.
    It almost looks like a clickbait title but it's a whole vocals recording session, with all the workflow shown and the funny/mistakes moments.
    It's much more than simple "how to record vocals" to me :D
    Really cool, and the singer nails every part!

      Hi, we are limited to 100 characters on the title, so we are limited by that. Otherwise what would you suggest as a title? How to Fully Record Metal Vocals? We are open for suggestions.

      Thank you for the reply.
      I'm quite bad at choosing titles but I was happily surprised that the video showed an entire recording session from greeting the singer to tracking all the harmonies.
      It also shows the various interactions and workflow, it's a lot of stuff :D
      "How to record metal vocals" made me think of just a quick video where somebody talked about good mics for the genre, good processing and that's it, but there's much more, very cool.

      I have literally had to write vocals for a lazy vocalist... on the day of recording!!!!! We found out he was just saying different nonsense every time... its infuriating to put countless hours into writing three guitar parts only to have someone come in and try to pass off what they are doing as effort... sorry... im still bitter...lol

  • @propeller

    So, your approach is to basicly double everything? would you recommend doing it always, or are there circumstances where one line is enough?

    Soo nice to see the whole process. I'm both a metal producer and a signer so this is double useful for me. Love to see all the details, trials and errors. Comforting to see many things I'vs been doing is also used by professional.
    Do you always double record all your vocal tracks like this? Do you mix all doubled tracks left and right systematically ?
    Thanks a lot !

    I would love to see how you setup the remote recording session in Cubase.
    Also it would be nice to see which audio tracks you send to the headphones of the vocalist or is it always the whole thing?
    How did you choose the right input gain settings for the mic via the remote session?
    Thanks a lot!

    • @MartinNephilim
      @MartinNephilim 3 года назад +1

      VST Connect, a feature in cubase that I think you need to buy it. It works really well tho. While you record in real time you can hear and see everything in daw and video, and if u decide to use that take you can download it after.
      Mike Malyan the drummer from Monuments has a youtube channel and he has a song with Daniel for this vid and Bart the guitarist from textures and he explains some of this stuff in the video.
      The earlier vids i think he does with other people and goes more in depth. He's a cubase wizard!

    • @JPlegia
      @JPlegia 2 года назад

      There actually is in a channel called Chris Liepe. But do take in mind that you will not sound like neither of them, you will sound like yourself but just with their technique.
      Modern metal vocals tend to sound all the same because EVERYONE is doing the cookie monster vocals on verses and some monotone non melodic cleans on chorus. - everyone seems to be afraid to show any form of humanity in the mix, everything is time aligned, drums are just samples, guitar amps are actually just sims and the non talented vocalist’s sound is replaced with autotune powered abominations.
      Modern metal has became boring cause its trying to be perfect. The music is done by humans, its not supposed to be perfect; ITS ART

    • @GoddaryuTUBE
      @GoddaryuTUBE Год назад

      they really aren't. You're just not searching the right words when looking for tutorials. The fact is for a very very long time when you searched for harsh screaming tutorials you couldn't find them at all, now their has been proper vocal coaches who have learnt the style and figured out how to safely do it and now people know what to actually do/teach and how to explain it with exercises that slowly get you there the void of almost no screaming tutorials is now being filled. Generic metal yelling and fry vocals have had tutorials for years and nothings changed about that in years and all the tutorials have been around for many many years, that's why nothing recent really gets made for them.
