I love that mic technique but I would add tom and snare mics just incase and blend them in if needed.

I guess that's why some engineers record the chorus separately so they can change comp settings.

Hi. I need help. How can I connect my WA73 mic preamp to my D1600 mkIi korg recorder? Thanks

She need autotune

Did anyone notice the pentagram on the outboard gear drawn in blue on tape?

Thanks for this video!

It sounds like a compressor controls the peaks, but does it also raise the quieter parts?

Using pro tools ruins the sound of real music played by real musicians

awesome

On Neve style micpreamps the output gain at noon is not "nominal" as one of these jokers says. Noon is actually about a 20db cut while full up is zero. Many people do drop the output so they can run the input gain a bit hotter and this is certainly a legit way to go if you like the sound that it produces. It should be understood that the output full up and the gain just high enough to get a nominal level out of the device is the proper starting point however. Another method if you want to push a Neve style preamp is to keep the output at full and push the input gain but use and external pad to bring down the output. With this method you get the whole unit cooking including the big old output transistor as well as the output transformer. Doing it the way these guys are by just lowering the output gain is like cranking the gain on a guitar amp and turning down the master, not as nice really as opening the amp up for real.

Would have been great if you would have shown us what it actually sounds like ... (plays 808 loop)

Loving this info guys you are on point!

Great video, guys. Thank you.

Very beautiful setup and content

Beautiful voice

Great Vocal sound and clarity

if i have a focusrite can i track like that with a plugin

Wow this sounds really great and she has a great voice too! What converters do you guys use ? I just purchased the b2 Bomber ADC for tracking also bought the BAE 1073 micpre w/eq going into a Apollo x6 DAW Cubase 12 pro and a Neumann 103. Thanks

Great video, and her voice is great 👍🏽

Funny to watch everybody talk about distance between the mics. Glyn is on KZbin showing the technique and someone asks him if he measures the distances. He laughs and says, "Nah, that's all bullshit, just put em about here and there, DONE".

Wow thanks, guys. I work entirely in the box but I always wish I could daily those settings while tracking vocals....

By far the best most simple tutorial on this subject that I've found so far! Thank you!

how much did you set the release nob

The vocal sound was incredible crystal clear which is what I am looking for so many of the studios where I am have no idea how to get that clarity in vocals

Do you record the vocals with the reverb while recording or do you record the vocals dry and post process with reverb? Just curious.

how do you tune the notes? this video only shows you how to move notes.

Guy on right resembles "The Professor" from Money Heist with straight hair lol

Very helpful video. Graet singer too.

Hello I have a compressor unit and I would like to add a slight amount of compression for control and to stop clipping. It has 3 knobs threshold, compression ratio and output gain. What would you set it to?

Thank you. This is wildly helpful and straightforward.

Wow the voice!!!

I feel like you were about to talk about the two different polyphonic algorithms and then you got sidetracked.

Good, useful video. Well done. Articulate and organized.

Intelligent and articulate video. Very useful. Nice production values also. Wonderful vocalist. Quite well done.

what MIC is this??

Beautiful voice

Sounds Great ! Was your Preamp a Neve ???

Around the 3:03 mark of the video, the input knob moves by itself, I think you have a ghost helping or hurt you?

Solid work, new fan! Question, is it ok to track with reverb?

how much compression ? Thank you

Thanks for taking your time for us to archive o jobs goal. Much love from Namibia

how do you bypass a La-2a?

Oh get to the bloody point Ringo

What would you recommend for a Rode nt2a going into a focusrite interface? The problem is some people say aim for highest peaks to be -6db, others -12db etc? What's the best? And to avoid the condensed mic picking up all that white noise when its super sensitive? The vocals for the track are pretty dynamic, many quiet parts and many loud parts?

Is that jimmy Fallon?

This is really helpful! Many thanks!

I have an old mixed-down recording with an out-of-tune guitar that ruins an otherwise fine performance. Can pitch correction software recognize discreet tones and allow for "tuning" a guitar that is not on its own track? I've used scripting in Audacity to replace a discrete frequency before, but it's been years and I'm not sure if that would work on all the harmonics of a guitar note within a chord, within a mix down recording.

Great video using knowledge on next mix
