Great vid! 👍 I waited PATIENTLY for this one an it helped greatly!! This has taught me my problem know lies with getting my vocals to cut thru bassy 2 track instrumentals an trying to get them to sound loud an not harsh when competing with commercial sound 😔

[@5piece]

Thank you for the inspiration on this one! I think you’ll greatly benefit from this video I did awhile ago to solve your problem: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYaVdnyDdphom5Y

thank you man this video is too good

[@abracaroguearcane1484]

Do you really have to have so many plugins and a so complicated mix to have great vocals or is it just what it takes to achieve that pro sound we yearn for ? Thanks

[@5piece]

I don’t think so. I have a lot of plugins but I generally rely on the same 10-15. I could get most mixes done with even less if I had to, but I do prefer some tools over others. As they say, it’s the EAR not the GEAR. Start with a small set of tools, learn how to use them well and then expand to fill in any gaps as needed. Here’s a slept-on video I did about my top picks: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4XUhqyaZrmhadU

[@beatluxx]

does all the busses fx like the reverbs slap delay go through the Accepela Master group? your aswering iwill be super important.

[@5piece]

Yes they do

[@MrDoublebeats]

What is the front end that is being used? I really like the sound even before the processing is added.

[@5piece]

I don’t typically record EverythingOShauN, he does that on his own. I believe they’re using a Neumann TLM103 running into an Avalon 737 preamp but I may be wrong

[@flamersss]

is the Slick EQ transparent ? like it dosent add color and harmonics as other additive EQ’s would?

[@5piece]

I feel like it does add a certain character to whatever you apply it to, very subtly. It has different curves (American, British, Soviet etc) that also alters the sound. That being said, I find it to be very smooth and musical, hence why I reach for it often!
