You should do like a 2 hour live stream where you create, record, and rough mix a record from scratch.

man your muddy vocals sound better than my final mix 🤣 been playing with subtractive EQ for a while but it kinda makes things even worse most of the times for me (voice starts sounding too robotic / radio like / has too much / little treble). practice makes perfect i guess, thanks a lot for the video (love your music by the way)

[@pxmusicpr]

Great videos man keep up the good work.

[@neol07707]

Thank you I struggle with eq to the point where I stopped using it due to unnatural results. This will give me more ideas to try

[@thenewgamers7382]

Wish I seen this sooner but aye it’s all apart of learning especially in the music career. I greatly appreciate your videos my guy. I use allot of your techniques and guides to get the results I want. I wish you had more subs cause you definitely deserve it! Plus this is the first video I commented on. Could you make a video on how to equalize your vocals with the beat so one track is not overlapping another as well for back end vocals for that special sound? I can quite figure it out. I’m professional on mobile editing but got a PC and it’s heck of a lot different than I expected it my guy. Especially for recording vocals I can’t get my normal sound I do on mobile. Because the way the music daws on PC completely processes it in such a different manner you have to be more Keen and harder on your vocal tracks than you do on mobile. It’s just spot of different factors and I would love to learn more. Thank you!

[@hvzxt]

I really liked your explanation!

[@tesfayetastic]

Yo big thanks and props to you for all the information you give on mixing and mastering on KZbin. Your advice has done wonders for me. A video on mixing things miscellaneous things like a beat tag, chants, crashes, open hats, percs, risers and other fx's, or even audio of some person speaking which is apart of the song (not vocals) would be great! Also a video on mixing sample based melodies for example from soundtracks (the type you download from youtube) and how to make them fit with vocals and drums being their already mixes and mastered. Those are some suggestions on video ideas that's love to see. Thanks again!

[@tesfayetastic]

So I was following all your techniques and I ended up having to scrap the project because I realized I didn’t properly gain stage, I was clipping on s many tracks and I had no idea because my post fader didn’t say so. A video on gain staging and pre fader metering would help a lot of people out including me, how you managing your overall levels for your tracks before and during the mixing process when you add plugins to not clip also you said you used a limited while mixing, so how you level match that with your reference track or general monitoring levels for when mixing to not be tricked by loudness or accidentally come in too hot like I did lmao. Long one but I feel this is important

[@onelifeliveit591]

Thanks Devvon, spot on

[@Lumikools]

I love your tutorials! I definitely implement your techniques in my mixes. But do you have other tutorials mixing rap rap vocals? Other than autotune singy rap? I’m sure this applies to both but I would love to hear that as well!

[@baxterks6892]

Always Helpful!! Please make a tutorial on How to use Autotune Correctly for both Lead and Background vocals.

[@hegotgame9347]

Find the key of your instrumental.

[@neol07707]

The key with auto tune is to use the graphical mode. It will take more time but you’ll get much more natural results and it allows you to paint the pitch of a vocal like a painting

[@baxterks6892]

Thanks guys, but I would still like a tutorial... And I know you will both be watch if or when he makes one because his auto-tuned vocals are dope

[@cpxeverything4160]

neol07707 the key is to find the key. Lol

[@neol07707]

CPX ENGINEER I feel ya bruh like Jimmy Douglas says his auto tune technique is sing it again bitch lol. That being said auto tune can still be very useful when it is not abused

[@prodcomplexion]

Very helpful. Song fire, too!

[@itumelengseema2921]

Thank god you posting new videos

[@coolseaking3757]

Beautiful explanation

[@babyjmusic4lyf]

What kind of headphones u use ? Your mix is amazing

[@varsitynblue]

I record in my bedroom, minor acoustic treatment (microphone blue bird sl). Bro you do exactly what I do, but I learned this technique on my own. I make the subtract bands a little thicker to take out more bad frequencies, but be careful not to take out too much it will make your vocals too thin. mainly have bad frequencies between 300-600hz / 800-1000hz / 2000-3200hz & 6000-8000hz

[@imimportant6422]

[@kademoore4258]

Super happy you made this video. Can you also make a video on vocals that sound too high or tinky? I'm a Male vocalist but my range is in the high tenor alto range and falsetto is a good technique for me. But this leads to some issues with the highs

[@scottiescott9297]

Another awesome video!!! One request though: you are obviously producing, mixing and mastering at a very high level. Would it be possible for you to provide a brief summary (at the end of the video) of what you did. Keep the videos coming. I’m learning a ton!! 👍🏾 Cheers!!

great tutorial man . I think you should have showed the sweeping method it self than place your points and delete the frequencies . It would have made it pristine . Thanks for the tutorials bro , you rock !

[@youngatwista]

I'm definitely doing something wrong. Your raw vocals sound clearer and better than my mixed vocals. My raw vocals sound like I recorded through a can

[@airno2820]

always thx. I hope you to let me know what is short delay, short reverb, long delay, long reverb and why those are needed.

[@keith9776]

Hey Devvon I love your videos! And I really like how your 808s in "She's a dub" get that extra saturation and body in the hook. How did you achieve that?

I watch a lot of mixing videos and one thing I can say, there is more than one way to do it. It's all about the ears and how the music sounds. Dope video. Can you do anything about mouth noise? You have some in this example. They stand out to me because I have the same problem at times. Is it mic proximity/levels, mixed with room noise?

[@thomasturkson6759]

Dope mixing

[@MrMaiio123]

Thanks man!!

[@mabeast502]

Thank you!

[@boogiemonsta2525]

It works even much better with a dynamic eq such as Fabfilter ProQ 3. This way the frequencies get notched down only when it gets louder than a certain threshold. An even quicker way is to just use Oeksound's Soothe2, which automatically and instantly determines which frequencies to dynamically turn down. Slap it on, turn the knob to taste, you're done!

[@emsanchez85]

Another official vid! 🔥 Good shit! I kinda have had some issues I'm kind of stuck on and that I cant find much info on. A vid by you would be phenomenal. 1 is that I literally have the voice of Ja Rule and Mufasa from Lion King 😂 you should do a video on mixing VERY very muddy vocals, with some heavy harshness. I be thinking that my vocal too "wide and thick", pause, at times n makes it difficult to sit on the beat properly. Maybeeee make the tutorial with 1 of my songs? 🤔😎 I dont think ive seen 1 tutorial anywhere on a very bad vocal. I know recording it over is the best way to go, but alot of people may not be able to. Also maybe a vid about beginner mistakes such as over saturating the vocal with plugin after plugin.. Also, a video that breaks down Auxs, buses n sends would be awesome.. thank bro, keep coookin!!
