man, guides like this cannot be free. This is really gold. Really best tutorial ever seen for me - other tutorials are so complicated for me. Thanks from the bottom of the heart
I agree. Though its almost like the rest of the music community straight up doesn't want you to learn the basics plainly like this so you have to go to somebody... lol
Inflator is applying Waveshaping and soft-clipping the input signals which, I believe, adds even order harmonics. Off the top of my head, that's what I remember. The compression you're hearing is the "filling" out of the signal with the dominant harmonics of the fundamental. This wave-shaping tool is considered an industry "secret." Melda's free Waves Shaper tool has an identical effect but you have to dial in shape and intensity manually. This video will give everybody superior results!
Thanks for watching this one and describing the inflator! I've heard about how it combines soft-knee compression, and harmonic distortion to fill the sound, but for some reason this doesn't seem to be everything it does. I'll look into how it uses wave-shaping! Thanks! SageAudio.com
@@lazwid7879 Just put your EQ plugin after the reverb plugin on that send. So load up your reverb, dial in your effects you want, then just place the separate EQ plugin after the reverb. Thus giving you an EQ'd reverb, that's how he did it in this video.
WOOOOOOOWWWWWWW you put the reverb on the main vocal chain subtly early on just for room emulation...NO SENDING...and then later on is the MAIN COURSE Send Reverb, the things you do in mixing blows my mind!!!
I have been learning a lot of things for audio production from youtube. This channel is the best when compared with what I have learner from other channels.❤️
Thanks for this! I enjoyed the parallel tuning part...I have tended to lean towards a less subtle approach. I definitely want to experiment more with this technique.
i looked it up and the oxford inflator works like if you were using Rvox and Loudness Max. it's a transparent loudness maximizer plugin to be used as a master like Loudness Max, so on vocals it works like an Rvox.
Excellent video as usual! Just a bit confused about using autotune on a send... wouldn't this create some dissonance with the original vocal since it is essentially in parallel?
Great teaching video. Wish the intruduction of each knob could be longer and more detail. (ideally). I notice that you are using a lot of Fabfilter plugins instead of those vintage ones. I'm also using Oxford dynamic and RVOX on vocal. I'll try inflator. I never thought about using Vocal tuning as a FX. Very interesting idea. Thanks for sharing. Would love to see more of these kind of video in your channel. Cheers.
Hey Kev! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! I like the RVOX - it reminds me a little of the inflator but with a more aggressive sound. Using vocal tuning as a send probably won't work for all mixes, but I liked how it sounded here! SageAudio.com
I learned to never use saturation on vocals unless they are screamingly small. I also learned to never user chorus (modulation) on vocals, might be for outworld-like styles but not for pop/EDM.
Fantastic advice, except for the tuning method. I wouldn't say that's the correct way to go about it, sending it to a parallel and then to a reverb. Going in and manually pitch correcting or applying the affect is the only way to really get a proper vocal pitch corrected result.
Thanks for watching! Also, thanks for sharing your thoughts about the video! I agree, I think manually editing the notes first is the best option and is a lot more accurate. SageAudio.com
Love all the plugin suggestions here and the order of things. Don't fully understand putting autotune on a send though, you're still hearing the out-of-tune vocal in the mix that way. Can't you just add autotune as an insert first and adjust the amount of the tuning to get that blend right between the original and tuned vocal? Feels similar to the idea of putting an EQ on a send, then you're still hearing the part you were trying to get rid of along with the other fixed part. I get it will be subtle this way, but you're still hearing the out-of-tune bits which was kind of the whole point of adding autotune to begin with. Perhaps I'm missing something. Anyway, cheers
I love you man lol! learned a lot i appreciate you a lot my guy❤️ Supercharger is a good saturation plug as well for subtle warm saturation or distortion
Thanks for watching! At the moment I don't :/ hopefully someone comes out with an alternative soon. So far, some plugins kind of do the same thing, but never as well
For any beginner here looking for a professional chain. (if you havent recorded through a compressor the 1st compressor before the first eq) then Eq -> compressor -> eq -> multibald compressor. And lastly de ess and then sooth. de essing and using sooth before compressing isnt smart since it messes with ur sound too much you dont want that to be boosted. You just want sooth and the desser to catch those frequencies at the end. (not saying that the chain in the video is "wrong" since there is no wrong but this one makes more sense to me. And dont always use sooth at 100% use it around 30-50 percent otherwise sometimes it messes the vocal up a bit
Hey Neal! We have some of the Izotope plugins - but currently not Nectar. I'll look into them! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! SageAudio.com
Hello, first of all, really nice video. Would it be possible to have a video on the best compressors in the market and the best way to apply them? Example: best for drums, for vocals, guitars, etc... Thank you!
Thanks for watching Artix Music! And thanks Rion for suggesting some of our other videos :] Maybe we'll make some videos that are "best drum compressors" "best vocal compressors" etc. Thanks! SageAudio.com
Great video. Thanks for posting. Two comments/questions: Wouldn't it make sense to have some level of tuning after gating, to fully prep the vocal? Also wanted to ask your opinion on EQ before reverb and delay, to send a "clean" signal into those units. Love your tip on the mid/side eq for the reverb. That's a good one. :)
I’ve never thought to try Inflator on a vocal track, gonna have to now :). I also like Autotune on a send, ill tend to melodyne a vocal directly first for very transparent surgical tuning, but then use some Autotune downstream because I like the color of the processing. I’ve gotten great results hard-tuning pre reverb and delays too. Put Autotune right before the send effect. Sounds super “modern” to my ears without killing the vocal performance
@@mrnelsonius5631 what are you smoking on?, Sage Audio be teaching the proper ways in which you can tune your vocals...and your over here talkin bout some "modern performance" and literally CHUCKING the Antares in the main vocals after sending it thru Melodyne.................just stop it.........it is ENOUGH Nelson...................you are not processing the vocals you have dissected it, you have dismembered it!!! now it's sounding robotic and saturated to the dome!!!
@@jasonchu4400 I think you are confused about what I wrote. What I was describing is exactly what Sage describes towards the end of the video. I see you have preconceived notions of the “right” way to do everything in an inherently subjective craft. Good luck with it!
i did not understand the point of sending the signal to a separate autotune chanel. is it only for sending the tuned vocal further to rev and delay ? if so, why not send only the tuned signals to the ambience effects ? it sounds kinda phasy when tuned and untuned vocals play at the same time.
Thanks for watching Octavian! I did this to blend the effect in with the untuned, and to get a little bit of a creative effect - but it's personal preference! SageAudio.com

Awesome video! Curious why you cut 599Hz? I know you were cleaning u p the muddiness but why that frequency? I get confused when someone wants to remove "boxiness"..... i don't understand what that even means!
Hey Vertigopulse! It's a little hard to explain without saying "boxiness" haha. It's a frequency range that doesn't add clarity or much of value to a vocal (in most circumstances). Often these frequencies will clash with other instruments making both less discernible. One good example of the benefit of cutting these frequencies is in the album Either/Or by Elliot Smith - in every vocal (and in a lot of the instrumentation) he cuts 500Hz, making it sound smoother and making the mix feel less cluttered overall.

Thanks for watching Lotfi SADI! Here's the chain used: Manley Reference Condenser > Great River Pre > Distressor. I can't remember the A to D converter used. SageAudio.com
Excellent, I use Auto-Tune Access, receiving the send from reverb and delay, only if the voice has not been tuned previously in melodyne, or even if it has been tuned, do I use Auto-Tune Access? Thanks.
