Excellent videos! The time stamp in the description is a very nice touch. Thank you!

[@daksunhabila9634]

Hello Austin, your tutorials are always spot on and interactive. Please can you share the complete processing on the lead vocal? They sound really crispy and smooth.

[@Jakepagere]

Don't sleep on spring reverbs. They can be cool on guitars.

This channel is gold

[@t9381yh]

This is good, thanx

[@aliyaszakaria]

Superb content Ausint! So packed with practical and useful information. Thanks a lot for this! Would you mind to talk about your vox delay next? I saw you have Stereo Vox Delay, Vocal Slap & Mono Vox Delay in your mixing template. Really interested to know about how you use each one! THANKS!

[@aarushmahesh1606]

i really needed this because i make all of these mistakes when putting reverb on my tracks lmao

[@jasonvillarruel]

this came at the perfect time

[@adityaarora8222]

[@mikewilkerson5295]

Austin is the goat

[@nimagholamimusic]

Tnx alot🔥

[@jeremiahlyleseditor437]

You are really good at this. Can you suggest, or give a tutorial about Supermassive?

[@lazca5435]

Hi Austin, could you make a video to explain how to mix acoustic piano in a rock/ballad track?

[@Hiderway]

Hey Austin, what do you think about calculating the decay? Like, make the reverb in time by 6000/BPM... Thank you so much!!!

[@bhaveshtochabbra6853]

Hey austen, I learn so much from this channel. Thanks to you. Can u do a tutorial on leveling and gain staging tracks?

[@MakePopMusic]

I don’t worry too much about gain staging when I’m working all in the box. Just make sure your level hitting a plugin is allowing the plugin to do what you want (for example, hit a compressor at the right level to give you the vibe you want)

[@MakePopMusic]

either or neither or both. Just depends on what you need the EQ and reverb to do @@ACES-BRAZIL

[@yuga3903]

Thank you for added Subtitle of other language !!!!

[@thezorian8]

I see you doing video mixing vocals. So do you do mastering for the song?

[@bejammin241]

I have a dream that one day you’ll do a H.E.R tutorial!! 🙏🙏

[@Huntermusic17]

Do you dedicate each reverb to one type of instrument or for example do your short sounds share the same short reverb etc. Another example would you ever share your drum room with other instruments or would you add a separate Reverb send even if it was the same reverb settings?

[@Quant-Beat]

Hello Austin, just a question. Vocals are known for 2-3 reverbs. What other stuff would you use more than one reverb on? I am against short reverbs other than bass and vocals. Snare has two, one mid and one throw longer. But never two at the same time, except vocals...

[@arulrozariomusic]

Hello Austin. Is jbl cshm10 dynamic mic good. Very cheap mic . But what do u think of its quality

[@sourabhsarkar3694]

How to make a cover song please make a video on that too Austin

[@iamnoth]

Great video as usual! Ive been emailing you for work collaboration but no luck on feedback. Please let me know wheres best to contact you 🙏

[@dafingaz]

🙌🏾

[@heartshinemusic]

I believe Chris Lord Alge uses 150 ms pre delay on his main vocal reverb... for in your face (rock) vocals that sound close but also smooth in the mix.

[@MakePopMusic]

That's almost like a slapback delay. Could be great for the track! I normally find that too separated for my taste but every track is different :D

[@leightonlapthorn8395]

Please do a how to make something similar to selfish by madison beer

[@deepspacemusicofficial9671]

👏

[@jpventuro]

Love Austin and his amazing content, but… Am I the only one who thought he kinda looked like this one was being made from the state penn with that yellow shirt, long blond hair and dark glasses? 😂

[@TaylorSappe]

Just wondering why you prefer 3rd party reverbs when Cubase comes with so many great sounding reverbs?

[@MakePopMusic]

Cubase does have some amazing plugins and I use them from time to time. I just prefer the sound and workflow of Verbsuite, Pro-R, and Valhalla Vintage :D

[@hugogeijerpersson4468]

Valhalla room vs vintage??

[@MakePopMusic]

Both, but if I had to choose 1, vintage.

[@beatweezl]

19:00 Don't you have the ability to put the reverb directly on the clip itself? You can cut out the phrase you want to accentuate with the wet reverb and put it right on the clip, no? I do'nt know if Cubase has that ability but Reaper and Studio One do.

[@MakePopMusic]

You can, but it can get messy and it’s so much easier for me to do on its own track. Plus, then I can process the reverb throw uniquely if I want 😁

[@Mineiro426]

@@MakePopMusic At 19:44 you say "you can literally hear it start to phase out because it's the same exact thing duplicated". I don't understand that. Since they are the same exact material duplicated why does it start to phase out? Shouldn't it be louder instead?

[@weirdtyler4932]

My CPU won't let me add seperate reverbs for each element

[@neerajyaduvanshi3575]

Your tutorials are really helping me ,, but if you can do it in FL studio it will be on next level
