you're probably the best, most in-depth youtube tutorial guy out there. I feel like a lot of these guys show us stuff that gets a track maybe 90% professional quality, but its the little things that get you that extra 10% and you seem to be doing those steps so I wanna say a huge THANK YOU :)

[@fxandmeow]

Hi I'm FX. i'm a witch. also a spirit. also a pop singer music producer. you may enjoy my page. cheers XO fX

[@no-yj2cf]

That raw vocal was spectacular

[@armanrozika]

It is not raw vocal she sent to him, it is edited (he said it in the video), you can hear a little eq and compressor already in there

[@lieutenantpepper2734]

arman rozika you can also hear the breath being controlled

[@JHVH]

This is one of THE BEST tutorials I've seen. The stereo imager/widener on the send track = mind blown!! Also sending the delay to the reverb so that it's got a bit of a tail, that was smart and never thought about doing that before. I already was EQ'ing my verb & delay but I've noticed a lot of people don't do that so that's a great tip as well. I don't have nearly the same quality of plugins, I'm mostly using Ableton stock, but it came out sounding amazing. Thank you :)

[@BeatsByEndless]

I’m really loving that you’re demonstrating the frequencies you’re talking about by turning the knobs for us to hear what you’re doing. Never put that away! 🙏

[@ValyumDJ]

I love the clean mix with great job in the details.

[@carlpleasant]

I wish i had found these videos a few years back. I've got so many partially finished tracks but I can't get my vocals right. You're a great teacher. I will be following you like a hawk from here on out.

[@jaywizz17]

GOTTA love when artists send you clean vocals i swear thats such a big thing people dont pay attention too. i hate having to do a bunch of eqing on a vocal cuz the artist recorded in what sounds like a bathroom off their iphone 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@DavidRenfro]

“That’s what she said“ got me good!

[@freez092also]

Dude I just stumbled across your stuff today.. your work is impressive! I come from the early to mid 2000s generation of pro music industry. You seem humble and I think your future is bright! Wishing you the best!

[@b3llydrum]

Man, you guys’ intro track is so catchy. Every time I watch one of your videos I always loop back to it a couple times. It’s so clean and crisp. Love it

[@WavyGang]

Definitely one of the best mixing videos, deserves more👌🏾

[@MakePopMusic]

Thank you so much!

[@loficovers_]

Sounds really clean man, I keep coming back to these videos. Great content in the MPM group as well! Keep it up!

[@matthieuschwarzmann5738]

thank you so much for this tutorial ! I produce all my songs and mix all of my own vocals by myself and I've really been struggling to get even vocals and make them sound like an actual pop sing and this video really made things very clear for me ! keep doing what you're doing, it's awesome

[@djharrry1]

You got me hooked as soon you said Don't copy my settings. Thanks for the tutorial 😁😁😁😁

[@beatweezl]

Incredibly detailed and comprehensive information. Amazing skills. Super impressed.

[@MakePopMusic]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it :D

[@jacksvocals]

The Dimension D was exactly what I felt I'd been missing, but didn't know existed until now. Cheers for the transparency, subbed instantly

[@matthewclemens5052]

You're are the best at mixing vocals and making them sound so open like it can go on for days, LOVE your work!!!!

[@luckypython]

Super dope video Austin! The chain that you added to the lead vocal definitely lifted it up really nicely

[@kylechumchal]

So many gems in here thank you 🙏

[@lohsounds]

It’s sounding really good & pure, nice job bro 🙏🏼

[@hlqa7938]

tons of value in this vid bro, thanx!!!

[@roadrunner5260]

great video, learning a lot from your videos. thanks a lot. and you are one of the rare ones, where the songs are actually f*ckin great. real solid pop songs.

[@Alenajellybeans]

when you're showing the difference between having an effect and without the effect i wish you would play the same exact part so the difference would be more obvious

[@kydwahlee6518]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I was working on a song with an artist named Brittany Nacole and really needed to figure out how to get the perfect sound. Now I can apply what was taught and create a great mix.

[@mixedbyangelo9093]

Great video man, thanks for showing us all of that. I mostly focus on drums and vocal FX are something that I'm learning.

[@Mikalyn]

very cool videos - love how ez you make it all sound. Thanks for helping producers and also making singers sound awesome!!

[@MarbleTracking]

Thanks so much for making these. I'm just now recording my own vocals and you've been a super big help. Thank you thank you thank you Austin!! You're the best!

[@gabrielbenjamin3951]

Amazing in-depth video, really helpful thank you dude!!

[@joshuachan9531]

Man! You made me understand SOOOOO MUCH! thank you!

[@houseoftone8939]

Great tutorial Austin, very in depth, think i'll need to watch several times as a lot wen t over my head, love Emia's voice , also would like maybe a quick master class on mixing something like Maroon 5 vocals, although he's male he can reach a hi pitch, be very interested how you would approach vocals like that.

[@jabulanimahlangu6863]

I am one of the guys who requested for this kind of Tutorial, Thanks Austin nice Tutorial

[@ponjke]

Great tips man! Keep a good work!

[@TheWhoopieBakery]

Amazing video. Thanks so much!!!

[@miketafaro209]

Smashed the vocal mix mate!

[@SoniqSounds]

You just made me buy the verb suite classics plugin - thanks

[@MakePopMusic]

It's amazing. Literally use it on every song multiple times.

[@SoniqSounds]

@@MakePopMusic I got it and retiring lexicon now. The bricasti emulations are out of this world on it!

[@lmc48]

The Verbsuite classics plugin is amazing.It works for me all the time.

[@manvsmonkey7960]

Dope mixing and production!

[@prestonluck7543]

Amazing content. One of these for male vox in a lower range would SO dope.

[@iamhunterreece]

Top shelf mixing bro!!!

[@stephenlecky8165]

[@blackburn116]

Woah, great video! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

[@nickborrrego]

Dude, SOLID tutorial thank you

[@two4mediapng]

Apart from this very informative video, nice track. Her vocals cool

[@brianfire6856]

I learned and applied so much dude. Thank you! You've earned a sub 😎

[@raffaelrudolf]

Best tutorial EVER. Thank you so much! A male vocalist tutorial would be awesome tho. Subbed 🤟🏼

[@in2music375]

For those who don't know..... this is golden. Thank you, Austin

[@iamsartor]

thanks for making this video using a female vocal! literally like 90% of vocal mixing videos here on YT are male voices

[@TreyVittetoeMusic]

Austin, beautiful explanation and detail here. Amazing sound!

[@Antongmusic]

Hey Austin. I'm a big fan of your videos! Huge thanks from Denmark! :-)

[@n1_Crims]

Like if you watched until "The Office" reference. Love the transparency of your thought process. Great stuff.

We've hit the jackpot boys

[@AdamCreatesThings88]

Hey Austin! This is great. Very impressive. How did you learn all this stuff?

[@thisisemia]

@@harmomixer2039 thank you thank youuu

[@dayboyy24]

great video!!! i think next (or in the near future) you should do a vocal mixing tutorial on vocals that weren't professionally tracked. i think it would help a lot more people, being that not all of us have access to or have the funds to go to a professional studio or even buy acoustic treatment for our rooms, etc. edit: when i say professionally tracked i mean like bare minimum bedroom recordings lol

[@austinhullmusic]

That’s what these are 😁 she just records herself in her apartment with a Blue (Spark I believe) microphone. Nothing fancy (:

[@thisisemia]

hi! I'm the singer in the vid and honestly this is just biggest compliment haha - I recorded all of these vocals on a Blue Dragonfly in my college dorm room with no acoustic treatment ( although I think I may have put a pillow behind the mic/ sand under a comforter

[@rez9386]

Can you do a video of how to record vocals?? Just like you said.. the raw vocal itself is already very very good. I'm stuck on recording on certain angles for certain voices.

[@MakePopMusic]

We did one on how to record vocals! We also address it heavily in our Vocal Engineering Series on our website :D

[@KICHANOV]

Thank you for your work!

[@taikobeats9992]

Haha the drums in the chorus sound like: SS_BR_Drum_Loops_08_115PM, from the Bad Royale sample pack. Good groove

[@edmlv]

Amazing tutorial!

[@eugenc.3518]

sounds great!!

So amazed with your channel.wowww

[@cameron7957]

Recently I’ve been experimenting with bit crushers and sample rate reducers. Some interesting stuff in this video

[@erin79]

Dang. So is not having all these extra delay throws and echo tracks the reason my vocals sound thin? I typically just do one lead straight up the middle, compression and reverb. This is why I hire a mixer when the production is done.

[@jho3004]

It is very helpfull thank you so much !

[@slamamusicofficial6219]

Amazing Tutorial! Thx Mate

Love it, I work in ableton, i save my vocal processing chains as racks and just add them to sends or sometimes channels/ whol groups.. Is their a way to save racks in cubase? Do yo do any processing the the whole vocal group or only induvidual as you show here? /Dennis
