Streaky - you need to watch your back man. Giving away all these secrets gonna get you hurt. But we appreciate ya man! I went from sucking at mixes to being the MAN after a year of watching all your videos.
This is a great trick for super clean pop vocals, but, the before sounds quite good too. It's all about stylistic choices based on genre and personal taste.
Ahaaaaa. Now i know how it works. I am just experiment with side chains signal on the drum and bass. Even one with pad and rhythm. I have a lot to learn. Thanks for the information. Tomorrow i will try to use your tip in my mix.
Exactly...To my ears ,not bypassed but maybe little less gain reduction instead works just fine, coz the sc compressor made the vox sound so dry and like no verb or delay added imo
hey streaky quick question, isn't this method built-in as a feature in the izotope aurora plugin? for the reverb at least, because im considering it :)
hey streaky, regarding vocal doubles that have the intent of just thickening the Lead without being really noticeable, is better to record them at the same distance from the Mic as the lead or record them a few inches back? like 12cm further.
Love the ducking to block the vocal reverb delay but keep the tail with 5 seconds! Wow it seems wat to long but I guess you subtract length of singing that vocal so so it’s more like 2sec long?
Wow! Great video Streaky! The compression trick on the bus is a game changer!! I have a question... I have the same female singing the main vocals and 3 harmony vocals. So i have 4 vocal tracks. But on the reverb BUS, i only can only side chain one vocal track on the compressor. So how do i route all my vocals to the same reverb bus and side chain all the vocal tracks? Should I add 3 more side chain compressors - one for each harmony track?
Send main + harmony vocals to a BUS and use the BUS as sidechain signal for reverb and delay tracks... so one compressor per FX track is enough... simple :)
Dear Streaky, we all love Valhalla. However the 70s preset comes with noise. You can‘t even just turn it off or lower it. Isn‘t that a problem when it comes to mastering? I find my tracks are substantially cleaner without it. P.S.: You‘re the best!
I want a software that will mix everything for me. What is your thought on that, how close are we, to being able to just produce a track and let ai create a perfect mix?
Pretty hard to get any mix to be the same as another unless the elements are identical so even doing it with AI will currently not do it but never say never
I’m gone agree with both comments, However as for the main elements, say kick, bass, vox leads: if that would be mixed for you to a standard and from that point you adjust it- it would make my life easier and a lot of ppl

Great advice ... I have an external vocal effects unit that has ducking feature, but this is great second (first) choice.
I’ve heard this explained so many times I finally get it thanks streaky!!
Remarkable Streaky! brilliant piece of tuition for something that is so important, thank you as always

Perfect!
So simple, yet so powerful. Amazing 'trick'!
This is a brilliant process. I've been using it for a while now ❤
Thank you so much for This amazing Insight!
old school classic, but thanks for the video Streaky☺
great little video, will try that in my next session, thx Streaky
Streaky thanks for this as i will experiment this with the vocals and get your reverb preset pack next week
Wow that sounds good!
This video is a good example that technique should serve the vibe. When Streaky bypassed SC compressors I liked it more.

Yes, the technique is good I just prefer less ducking and little bit more of the reverb and delay between the phrases.
Streaky, What is a couple reasons you've moved to Logic over Pro Tools?
Why didn't you use Trackspacer instead of the compressor?
amazing tip!
Amazing trick!

I’m not sure

Get the best recording you can and use effects to change the vibe

You beat me too it
Great vid..what compressor is that? Thsnks
Stock logic

I would never use reverb in mastering but mixing it’s part of the vibe…loads of other options of it bothers you
What song is this? So good
Made up from splice samples

The perfect mix It just doesn't exist. Mixing is not just math but includes creative solutions with different and personal results in sound.
Pretty hard to get any mix to be the same as another unless the elements are identical so even doing it with AI will currently not do it but never say never
