There’s gonna be times when you want to say “fuck it” due to it being difficult at some moments, but if it’s something you love doing, keep at it and spend as much time as you can to learn as much as possible 🙌 I’m no professional, but I just wanted to share a few tips from the bit of experience I have.

    Hi Wayne, thanks for this fantastic video on EQ. After many many years I recorded my own first song. I need to EQ the song and then mix it effectively so I can be liked by my friends. Now the question is, is there a step by step guide which I can use to mix my vocals using Pro Tools first? I am totally new learner, so I need basic steps on how I can import my karaoke track, and then import my vocal track which I already have recorded, Compress, EQ, Reverb or Echo... (make corrections to any phrase that is not clearly or brightly sung, keep the sound level consistent throughout the song, etc) and finally bounce the song as a final cut.

  • @ezporcelain
    @ezporcelain 4 года назад

    12:00 Exactly! Somebody told me years ago "with the software EQs you better cut what you don't need and then raise the gain". That's because specially in past Software EQs used to do weird things to the "bell"/knee or however it called - the frequencies right before and/or after those which you are trying to raise. So even though things have changer for the better I'm still very cautious with them Software EQs...
