- How To EQ Vocals In Garageband (BASIC Tutorial) | In Studio Vlog
Here is an in studio vlog on vlogmas day 6 of tips and tricks on how to EQ and set up vocals in Garageband (at least, how I do it). I will say this is definitely NOT the most technical video in the world, I don't know all of the terms or proper ways to explain things or even some of the functions in the Garageband program but musically, I can say that I do know what sounds good and I have been told by professionals that I have great sound and mixes with my music production and vocal production. With that being said, a lot of you upcoming producers, music artists, songwriters and all have been asking me to show you how I set up my vocals and EQ them for recording. So I decided I would make this studio vlog now finally to show you guys! It is a bit long and I was having quite a bit of audio issues in recording this video but we got through it and I hope you guys can look past that to find some useful information. With that being said, enjoy the Garageband Tutorial on how to set up EQ for vocals in Garageband and go on to watch how to record vocals and how to mix vocals in Garageband in my other videos once you've seen this! Thank you all for watching!

U don’t even need to apologize man. I understood literally everything you said. Thanks for the tips👍👍
Glad it resonated well with you man
IAMLXGEND same with me man. I really learned a lot. 🙏🙏🙏
"I'm self-taught" - that's a badge of honor, you learned through doing. You're absolutely brilliant.

Your simplistic approach to this element of GarageBand is refreshing. In so many GB training RUclips videos, the teacher assumes the student has been doing it for years. Your method is so relatable to newcomers like me, where your answer to everything is, watch what I do, with the knobs and play with it until you hear what you like! Your video needs no apologies! Thank you for helping me understand EQ Vocals in GB.
I feel this is one of the easiest ways to learn and understand, just speak in terms everyone can understand. I know that’s how I learned. So I’m glad my methods are helping others!!
So refreshing!!
bro i love you. every other tutorial makes me feel dumb because I just don't understand all the big words and fancy terminology. this is perfect. thank you so much.
That’s why I’m here dude. To make it as simple and understandable as possible. Thanks for watching!!
Cole Hedgecoth man fr I said the same lmao
I know this video was taken 2 years ago, but I would like to say thank you so much!All the other videos have big and fancy words, and I don't even get them!Your video is simple and easy to understand.Finally found a video which really helps me! Thanks!
You're very welcome! I'm really happy to read that you could vibe with the video exactly the way it was presented. That is my entire goal!
Bro I swear this is me! 😂 I couldn’t tell you a single note, but I know what sounds good. I’ve been messing around with GarageBand for about a year now and this is literally the first video somebody explained it the way I can understand it!
No need for apologizing this was just what I needed thanks and keep doing your thing man!
It’s all about what you’re able to achieve! I tell people all the time, linguistics don’t matter. Results do! That’s where it’s at man. Thanks for watching 🙏🏾
@@IAMLXGEND wow
You are incredible. The entire time I was like "Yes! I get that. That totally makes sense." Honestly, your videos are BETTER because they are simple and don't have all of that fancy terminology. Thank you so much. I'm learning so much from you.
stop apologizing! you did fine for what you could do in terms of explaining. at least i could tell that you know what your doing. your true supporters that asked for the video will understand ! 😂 also i peep you sharing your original music more in them outros 😍🙌👏
You doing it exactly the way a novice can understand.... NEED NO APOLOGIES
literally have been trying to find actual garageband band tutorials that are not only relevent, but useful. These actually work for me. Keep it up man!
yoh me too
Man this video helped me so much. I love that he wasn't tryin to be a technical person. Him speaking it the way he did got me to understand easy as hell now
DUDE. Stop apologizing for "not being technical/detailed"! I've been watching a lot of videos on compressions and EQs, but yours is the only one that I REALLY understood!
Also, cheers from Indonesia!!
Just came to your heavenly video today. I feel I have wasted hours of watching Garage Band tutorials in learning nothing and rather being intimidated by all that technical stuff thrown at me. Now, watching your video is giving me a confidence that I can learn how to edit vocals. Thank you Legend.
Works for me. I don't know anything about terminology so it suits me fine.
Best GarageBand tutorial for vocals hands down 🙌🏼
forget all the tech words like you said, regardless you helped me tons fam. appreciate ya....
Thanks man and glad you got the message and learned a bit 🙏🏾
Jay Mohn ruclips.net/video/mQGzkwvGI9s/видео.html
4 years on and you still made sense to me I like how you show it.
Dude, don’t worry about it! I’m glad you made this video, I don’t even understand the technical terms either. Your video gave me ideas of how I can improve my vocals. Thanks a lot for sharing this video!!!! 🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠
Thank you so much for explaining this in basic terms! I get SO overwhelmed with the technical terminology that often I give up on YT videos if I can’t understand the wording. Thank you for explaining it so well! 👍
You’re absolutely correct. No need to be technical when you have a grasp of what works for you. You’re not advocating for going against learning new concepts, so I wouldn’t stress it. Your piano comment rang true.
I actually prefer the way you describe sounds. Very graphic and easy to follow what is normally overloaded terminology. Please keep doing it! Thank you.
man we not worried about technical knowledge and terms we love your results and you helped us newbies alot
Great video man! I am a blind rapper from the UK and starting out making my own beats so your videos are very helpful! Bless
Sightlessmusicofficial o wow. Keep it up
A really neat coverage of EQ-ing and Compression based solely on experience. I'm an engineer, and when i first opened up Garageband (just today, actually) i was kind of shocked that instead of giving an actual compressor with settings, or an EQ with an actual graphic display of the spectrum, all we get is knobs. It was almost outlandish. But the more i thought about this, the more i realized how unique and original this idea really is--and it's sort of a testament of how Mac has always thought intuitively. Even Steve Jobs himself invented actual tablet concept that would eventually be our smart phones. I'll have to play with this more, but i'm thinking this simple dynamic-processing window might actually teach someone what compression is, and does (as well as equalization), even if you don't know technical aspects of HOW is is actually done. And my final statement. Wanted to say that this is really kind of amazing, i think, what Apple has done here because anytime you apply EQ or compression you will get drastic change in loudness of the track, which can peak-out and cause distortion. Meaning you also have to understand how to bring levels up and down for every change you make. So, amazingly, what Apple did was sort of program the application to automatically level-out the volume to any change you make. Professionally, you wouldn't want to do this because you can't ever tweak your work with precision. Yet, on the other hand, if you can learn to really REALLY trust your ear, this thing could be Golden . . . This demonstration is a real gem because IAMLXGEND is teaching us dynamic processing by-ear while using an actual application that itself works, essentially, by-ear. No numbers needed!
THIS WAS INCREDIBLY HELPFUL! I watched a "technical" tutorial before this one, and I was so confused and overwhelmed. this is exactly how I needed it to be explained for my brain to grasp as a beginner. thank you thank you thank you!
You are most welcome. That is my goal, I just want to simplify all of this for those who don’t know the super technical stuff. I feel it’s the best way to learn/teach. It doesn’t have to be/sound complicated. The simpler the terms the easier it is to understand :)
Man i love this video..thats very simple..so easy to understand without any recording technical terminologies 😁
this video is saving me from having to wait on my labels producers! Thank you!!
You are most definitely welcome
Love the "self taught" style bro!! Im the same exact way!! Like you know what your looking for or trying to do, but putting it into words is complicated.. much love ❤️💛💚 my brother!!
I find your tutorial very helpful.. way easier to follow for a beginner like myself.. all the "technical terms" are hard to follow.. thanks for the help I hit the like button for all your hard work, keep it brotha!
I like the way you teach as I don't know what the technical terms are but as you show us in practice I can fully understand so don't change the way you teach thank you for sharing
bro your youtube tutorial videos has helped me out in more ways then you can imagine. I literally come here to learn. Your a genius. As a fan and a student of your teaching I want you to be confident that what you explain and how you explain it is perfectly understandable. People who want to get it will get it and people who don't won't. Pay attention to the people who do because we are learning and we are getting better bro. I believe in you man. Keep going.

After reading a lot of these comments, this very one included, one thing that I know I’m doing well is teaching and explaining things in terms that anyone can understand. That is really what’s missing. A lot of folks can’t simply do or learn as they wish because of confusing lingo. We have to break it down so everyone can understand so that’s what I try to do and reading things like this show me that it’s working. Thank you so much
I actually appreciated the way you explain. It was in a way that someone not as trained as me understands. It made lots of sense to me.
Appreciated the video I had no clue what I was doing when it came to EQing vocals, but thanks to this video I'm a lil closer to at least understanding what all these dang knobs do.
I used to be the same way years ago, just came with playing around and seeing what they do. That’s the best way to learn. So I just try to show others!
1. I dont usually comment on youtube, i dont at all actually. just paused they video to write this. i love how you explainin yourself, i judge a video based on the person talkin and you dont annoy me at all. so u good, keep it up
I really do appreciate that
I’m learning a lot from you so pls don’t apologize! Thank you for sharing your knowledge to us!
Thank you :)
Thank you for this!!
ZANE OMG I LOVE U
It is refreshing how you approach this topic in a simplistic fashion. Good for starters like me.
That’s the idea right there!!
Thanks for making this video fam. Very Helpful! Beautiful voice great music bless Up
No apology necessary LXGEND! I speak your language! FACT: Any tutorial that gets SUPER 'techy' I start nodding off and then I close the video. So, I prefer the sound effects > technical jargon. LoL. Same thing applies when learning a dance...If someone's making sounds, like "Boom kack" I'll get the dance. But, if they start with 1 and 2 and 3 and 4...I'm gone. LoL -- Glad I stumbled upon your page. THANK YOU!
yo great video my g! really brought so much clarity for beginning producers out there! lesgooo
I like the way you explain and demonstrate your lessons
you're actually really good at explaining things
Honestly i love they way u explain this bro its more relatable for most of us thats just starting thanks odee 💯
Thats the best way to do it!
you have no idea how informational this was, when your passionate about something you do, Simple yet very informative!! 👍🏾
I’m glad it could help even with the technical difficulties lol
This was awesome.....I used GarageBand for so many years and just never
used anything but clicking record lol. Now I know a few tricks. But I'm already starting Logic.
Still you don't need to apologize for teaching your way......I understood you and you appeal to many
who rather a simple understanding. Nice video!
you speak my language!! all love bro let God use you!
Most def
As a beginner Music channel, this helps me a lot!
Your explanations are better than any other youtuber iv watched
I take that compliment extremely to heart. Thank you
Great how to man! There’s really no need for you to apologize 😂 I understand everything that you were trying to tell as I am self taught as well. I never know the technical terms, but you just explained things in a way I can understand. Thank you man! Great video.
Always super awesome when people like you let me know my rants and ramblings aren’t going by the wayside lol. Because I say a lot of stuff that pros think sounds so beginner but my thing is you have to really talk to people in the simplest way to help them understand better. No need to use unnecessary words

Btw don’t worry bout what people think. Music is art I was told there is no right or wrong way to it. The video was really really helpful simple and easy to understand. Keep it this way people love to learn and get motivated when they understand wtf is going on or they just give up just like that when they get no clue wtf is going on! Don’t get discouraged w these dislike and negative comments 😂 even the best musicians and producers have haters so you know wgaffff.
Idc What they think I just get annoyed with ignorance. It pains me to see people who can’t think logically. Never discouraged (if I am, it’s from my own doing, not other people), I’m always grinding, I just find it really funny lol.
yeah bro just like everybody has said, they way you explain it is enough to understand what you mean, youre very talented!!
First time I came back to the same video great job very helpful
Amazing video you explained this so well. I've been struggling with my vocal production so I'll definitely give these tips a try. Love the sound you got with the lead and backing vocals together, sounds soooo smooth!
thanks for making it so simple and easy to understand, wanted to do music for so long but been too scared to venture into it bc most ‘beginner’ youtube tutorials are really not for beginners at all!
That’s why I do what I do! I wanna make it so that everyone understands 🙏🏾
Great vid. I'm just learning garage band and I appreciate you speaking my language
Simplistic and to the point is the best language I speak 🙏🏾
I've been watching and learning from all of your tutorial videos. I can't wait to get a macbook pro and the rest of the equipment to get started.
I can’t wait to see you creating!!!
Good stuff--I've been picking up a lot watching your videos. Compression in recording just the highs and the lows (which is why the so-called audiophiles don't like mp3s). But, many guitar players also use compression pedals to increase sustain--which I don't fully understand (and I'm a guitar player LOL!). Mind you, I'm also 67 years old which means my hearing cannot hear all the frequencies as well as somebody your age. As others have said: no need to apologize fro anything--you are still teaching by demonstrating--and I'm a self-taught musician too so I can relate. Just hope to get my keyboard skills up to your level! 😀👍👍
Very VERY helpful and relatable. You should def keep teaching in this style (Non Technical) because 9/10 those of us watching for learning purposes relate most to that way of teaching. YOU GOOD! Thank you .
Yea man, regular folk speak is my forte because that’s how I learn, myself. And it makes no sense to use big technical terms when you can explain in basic terms that everyone and beginners can understand. Def not gonna change up my style. I’m just always hard on myself.
Looks like I'm echoing the comments but yeah man this is literally one of the best tutorials I could find for GB. Nice work. Got a new sub too.
this is one of my least favorite ones I've done hahaha so it's really inspiring to see and I thank you for this
understood its simple and clear no need to apologize b thanks for ur effort
I’m always critical of myself
Understood just fine actually better then half these other tutorials Thanks For the Tips Man 💪🏾
That’s why I do what I do! I’m out here for the common folk lol
What your saying makes a lot of sense. without all the technical terms sometimes is a good thing..
Thanks for sharing your knowledge
It's greatly appreciated..
I really like this video, I'm self taught as well so the way you explained everything made PERFECT sense. Thank you!
Dude, I like the way you explain things.
Glad to hear it! I'm really no nosense lol
I like your style - very simple and yes it encourages the beginner to "play around" and that's the way to really learn. Thank you for this great video. excellent tips!!
Your videos are super helpful man thank you!
Also, you're better than all these haters commenting. Don't engage in their crap - I see you replying to a lot of hateful trolls and it's not worth your time man - you don't even have to defend yourself when you can mix this good. The most successful people in any field only encourage and give positive, constructive criticism so it's super apparent that the people commenting negatively aren't anybody.
Keep it up man and keep the vids coming.
Oh trust me, while I do get annoyed by the comments they don’t get to me in the sense like I think I’m doing bad. It’s just ignorance and elitism. People thinking they’re better than you because they have “X” degree or something. It is what it is. I merely respond because I reply to every comment on the channel
Thank you so much for this video! Really helpful
You're such an awesome teacher! Thank you so much for being so relatable and easy to follow! You're definitely helping the likes of us who are completely new to this and need your teaching style to learn GB. Keep doing what you're doing because it's helping me and I know many others too. Great job and your music sounds dope!!!! Blessings!
Thats what I’m here for! I once was there, I know how it feels. Wish I had someone do the same for me. I want to be that person for others.
Lol thanks for the simple tut brother, finally a video which explains it well
I try to!
Great explanation. I’ll definitely use your tips.
Most definitely!
i really resonate with the way you teach and explain thank you! you are cool asf
Big big compliment to me and I thank you for that. I explain the way I know I would understand it! I’m glad it works out for people
“What you doin round there pahts man?”
Once again you executed awesome tutorial don’t sweat it if you’re not familiar with the terminology I and I’m sure others definitely understand where you’re coming from.
LISTEN HERE-your videos rock! and i will be giving you credit when i figure it out. You bringing me to the water and im gonna swim
That’s the goal! Thank you for showing love, let’s me know I’m doing well 🤟🏽
Haha I take the same trial and error approach and just mess with stuff till it sounds alright. And when it comes to explaining this stuff I do the same. You’re doing great man, your videos help a lot! 👍🏽
VERY helpful video, thank you.
really appreciate your video man you explained it very well and it really helped to improve my mixing with garage band plus your songs sound dope asf thx
Thank you man, I really appreciate it and I'm glad to help.
Swear your explanation is perfect. Thanks for this. Well needed and dont apologoze bc it helps
you helped me and the explanations were good enough for me, just to hear what you had put together at the end was really great, the harmony work sounds really tight so you got a sub from me. I'll be checking out some of your other run downs. Keep up the good work!
I appreciate that a lot and thanks for checking out the video regardless! 🙏🏾always happy to help
best explanation ever and hey I am mexican and I understood!
I mean this is not even my primary language!
Awesome stuff. Thanks for taking the time to share what you've learned to help the rest of us shorten our learning curve! Much love brother!
That’s what I’m’ here for!
Whats up LXGEND! Dont worry about how you explain from the "do-er" type of view. There are other vocalist, song writers, rappers, music heads like myself who are starting out and prefer being shown as we are also from "do-er" gang! Lol greattttt video. Great explanations as well as my focus is on what your showing and not definitions💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾✊🏽🎶🎵🎶🎵🎧🎹
Damn im glad I just stumbled upon this channel. Thanks for simplifying things with this tutorial. I'ma keep watching more of your vids!
You explained everything 100x better than all these other videos, helped a lot💯💯
I know so many people who would disagree with you 😂
But I’m super glad you don’t agree with them!
Thank you for this! I gave you a shout out in my first vlog!
Amazing video. You did your thing man
Gaddamn thank you so much man
Np 🙏🏾
Maaaan thanks for the tutorials.....I cant tell you how much its helped me man!!! Peace and blessings
Great stuff mate, simple and effective advise..keep it up
Appreciate it
Good vid bro, took notes. Thank you!
Blessings bro I’m learning ‼️‼️‼️
Your videos are very helpful hopefully you dont stop due to people talking trash. I find these tutorials helpful and i honestly dnt care about technical crap as long as i understand you and what your showing me then im cool😎
Nah I’d never stop because of trash talkers. The thing that makes me wanna stop is people not wanting to watch my other videos. My creative ones. It’s a bit frustrating sometimes. I appreciate you watching very much 🙏🏾
Well i found your videos about a hour ago and ive watched like 9 😂 your creativity and explanations all together are entertaining, inspiring and very helpful
Binge watching, I love it hahaha
bro I just want to say u help me alot, thanks. god bless
You’re welcome
That is just the mid frequency sweep. If you boost your mids all the way, and turn that mid freq dial, you can sweep through to choose what mid freq you want to boost or cut. Good vid; kudos dude!
Thanks man! I’m no pro at mixing and hardly know technical terms of half of what I show haha but always good to hear some good feedback. I just turn knobs until I get a sound I like 😂 in theory at least. I actually know what the frequencies are but still, I’m no mixing professional by any means. Any bit helps
This made so much sense. Thank you 👌🙌
You’re welcome!
As a matter of fact ☝🏾 [lol "and anotherrr thing"] Im looking for different Garageband refreshers to expand my knowledge outside of what I shown myself a few years ago and when I youtube search? I def search for your videos as I like the way you explain.
Hey man it was really clear! Thanks for the video
Thank you!
This tutorial is exactly what I needed THANK YOU
I love you - thank you for explaining and demonstrating this in a way I actually get it.
That’s what I do best! Thanks for watching :)
Hey man i added good mic effects such as the eq, pitch corrector and a couple more and i was happy with the way i was sounding, then today i went to record some more and my mic sounds completely different, its more echoing and seems to pick up more around me and changes the way i sound, reducing the gain on my mic and on garage band didnt change this and i have run out of options! any ideas to help me!! btw i also love your videos!!
So I have this issue as i haven’t got the best equipment I’m gonna assume it’s that or your recording environment so acoustic foam or blankets work to reduce reverb it’s easier to add than remove and take note of your recording environment as well take all these into account it should help you out let me know how it goes :)
Awesome bro , thanks this is a big help for me . Now i know why my recording sounds like am inside of container :)
