    I've been mixing for 20 years (on and off) and I still learn from every video I watch, people do things differently. Some over mix and over process...he keeps it simple done with great skill..Yoad explains things very well...great video!

  • @dgreenwood3
    @dgreenwood3 9 лет назад +26

    For all of you who think the vocalist is awful: 1) it must be wonderful to be so good at everything. Congratulations to you. 2) if you're actually professional recording engineers, your job is to make things sound as good as you can, not to judge. Polishing turds? Yes, that's exactly what we do. Every day. That's the job. If you don't care to work with sub-awesome performances, I suggest you turn yourself into Jack Joseph Puig or Chris Lord-Alge. Then you'll have enough rep to not need to spend time commenting here.

    Even though I don't use waves at this time, this was one of the best videos I've ever seen. Great teacher. I will watch this many times. I was surprised by all the criticism on the vocalist. I have had questionable vocalists who ended up with amazing songs. There are many very famous artists who aren't great singers in the classical seance but their team including producers and mixers knew how to package them. It is not my job to be a critic, it's my job to help find their nitch and direction and hopefully make them smile when they hear the results. I absolutely hate, did I say hate, despise polka but i will mix it as though I love it with every fiber of my being. I feel I can either be a mix engineer or a critic. I actually love the difficult ones, when I am successful with them, I know I really accomplished something.

    Fascinating to see how a raw vocal can end up sounding quite good. The raw performance didn't make sense to me, but when it was processed and then put in context, it all came together. Nice job! BTW, if we heard most pop vocals at the raw stage, we'd be surprised. Bless the mixers…

    Thanks so much. Really learned a lot. Edited my own vocals point by point along with your instructions and I'm really happy with the results. I noticed you duplicated the vocal track to add saturation. I've been placing saturation prior to compression on the idea that it would react more dynamically to the uncompressed signal. Would love hear opinions on that.

  • @ThisIsKeef
    @ThisIsKeef 11 лет назад

    Ur right about that. When I took a digital composition class, I was critiqued to ease off my compression and not surpass 3db of compression on certain aspects and tracks. I still use a stand alone compressor along with a built in compressor within a channel strip on my own compositions outside of school. I'll even send a compressed signal to a bus and compress that too Lol!

  • @MkProductionQ8
