How to Mix Professional Vocals in 3 Steps

[@EverythingLydia]

she sounds GOODT!!!!! oooh yeah, shes ME! lol great video babyyyyy!

[@luna7810]

You sound incredible!!

[@BigMacApe]

That song is amazing it sounds like a champion or WWE song

[@chantryrodriguez]

love how there is always a different approach to each mix and its never just the same exact sequence of plugins which also means that its important to know exactly what plugin does and how you can use it to bring that sauce like wavy into the mix

[@EH-ro8dn]

Clean, control, enhance … got it.

[@Richptoptier]

I’d like a video on what eq’s, compressors, or reverbs to record with if you’re a artist in a home studio. Trying to record professionally. What should I record with on my vocals in the moment? Thank you!

[@MarrGiovon]

wayne if you come across this comment, I would like to thank you for the work you’ve been doing for all of us 🔥🔥🔥

[@yqreed7977]

Hey Wavy Wayne, I just want to start off by saying thank you very much for all that you've done mane. For real you taught me so much when it comes to engineering vocals and I've come a long way before from the beginning. Now I don't need to rely un unreliable engineers who don't care about your music and only care about how much they can get out of your wallet. Being and independent artist is very difficult when finding the righ people you can trust and building your reliable team that will help you get to the next level in your music career. In addition all your videos are loud and clear and I love your choice of words, I can tell you're a very high intellectual person, a true genius. Awesome job man you've made my life so much easier in that I can work on my songs in confidence. You're phenomenal teacher man keep doing your thing, thank you again! YQ Reed

[@AVGWayne]

Because of you i actually have a song in the millions 🤘🏽🙏🏽 you’re a huge blessing bro!!💯

[@INFAMOUSC-4]

Great tip at the end

[@sarahmakenziee]

also as a beginner to protools this was an amazing tutorial, very detailed and easy to comprehend. Thank you for putting the time in to share this knowledge!! cant wait to see more

[@Jwuappbreadbox22]

Man.. I appreciate all I’ve learned.. and 98% has been all knowledge from this page.. now I’m on new protocols and ua plug-ins with Apollo solo.. thanks for killing this game.. and I got the demo off protocols update!! 💯💯💯

[@4thg3ar]

Great content Wavy. All of the crucial steps in vocal editing for sure

[@waynewav]

Thanks

[@ELLIOT8209]

@@waynewav that delay sounds like you put a compressor and side chained it to the original vocal.

[@alanbaum3228]

That song cut sounds really good.

[@jazzae23]

Wavy always dropping the gems! I can’t state it enough but I have learned so many usable techniques from this brother! Love the video and as always peace and love! Lingo

[@ELMCinc]

Lydia is always great behind the mic. Y’all should do microphone performance with Lydia. Details on keeping ur cadence, delivery, basically how to treat ur voice as an instrument with the beat. 💪🏾 Also 😊 I know she can sing, but def would love to hear her rap. Thanks Wavy 😊

[@goodcitizen3780]

Good video. This guy gets right into it. By 1:20 he has jumped right on top of it.

[@TheElectricfishmusic]

Master class! It's all about the artistic choices and subtleties. Great video.

[@cadilaktrip6589]

[@bstiggs]

[@K.LawTheFuture]

Bonus Tip #2 Record yourself Mix yourself. :Allen Iverson voice: Practice!!! I know its cringy to hear your own voice but its worth trying. Thanks Wavy for the tips.

[@zdubb_2149]

[@MayotheMaker]

Man that singer! She's got it. The little bit of auto adds a nice little bit of bite too.

[@hoodpreacher]

she sounds beautiful ‼️‼️‼️

[@cadilaktrip6589]

I like the duo sound.

[@Herbsus]

in regards to your bonus tip, how do we go about pre mixing before recording? Also what are all the must haves or dos when you are premixing before recording vs what should you leave for the actual mixing process?

[@Thepluskenzie]

Thank you for this video my friend ! It has been such a great help and inspiration

[@jesse69ify]

You the man wavy! Learn something new everytime I tap in on the schooling vids 💪🏽🙏🏽 thank you big dog!

Good job bro Africa we follow

[@imanimurryacappella]

Can someone please tell me the name of this song? I want to listen to the whole thing!

[@Saner.]

You bro I really need an answer. 1- why when you used the H-delay you put the analog on 4 instead of turn it down to zero 2- is the wider plug in has to be added as a send ? And why ?

[@holywaterandgreentea]

Excellent Thanks

[@hoodpreacher]

can u do a video explaining all the names for mixing for instance I heard u say I'll add a high shelf or something like dat help me understand what ur doin can u simplify sum of the stuff you say for beginners please

[@b.m.kzambia3172]

I love it❤😊🙏🙏

[@brandon_henry_222]

Question: ❓ Are the reverb, parallel saturation, and delay all on their own auxes?? I may just funk with them separate then together.(I heard satch after the reverb on the same strip is very tasty, haven't tried yet tho)

[@pastorkspeaks]

Press pause real quick. 1st off this track is 🔥. OK pressing play again. It's this song released??

[@EverythingLydia]

its not, its actually a hook available for lease! on my website everythinglydia.com Thanks!

[@pastorkspeaks]

@@EverythingLydia thanks Lady Lydia!! You are 🔥 for real!! Are you currently accepting instrumentals?

[@OgSpiritRecords]

How Much You'll Charge Me To Mix 1 Song????

[@anthonyjomarortiz3161]

It'll be nice if you could've explained how to get to the plugins menu incase if your screen was different. I seen absolutely nothing at all. Just waver form and I, S, M

[@parelliegotthatwork7998]

Needed this

[@charleeparkerxo]

What analog gear does your vocals go through first?

[@216lemon6]

I use studio one 5 with stock plug-ins. What should I use for a female voice? I also have a slight lisp..

[@bkrendan12]

Besides de-essing for plussives, my de-esser smooths out any sharp frequencies for the high end. Is that how youre using this here?

[@BXtds]

Great video

[@Issabangahoe]

lol i laughed at the beginning, u talking to me ! struggling lol

[@SuperICEMIKE]

what mic was the vocal recorded on?

[@ronalddavis6363]

Hi Wavy. Love the very easy explanation. Question though, when the MP3 feature on pro tools 10 stop working how does one get it downloaded again? Thanks in advance.

[@waynewav]

Can you explain what you mean that it stopped working?

[@ronalddavis6363]

When I try to bounce a song in the MP3 format it says software not available. It will only bounce in wave form. It Worked well before.

[@m.m.r.enterprise5772]

Salute 👏👏👏

[@butitsameme1502]

What software do you use?

[@marx1045]

Quick question is the track your mixing the vocals on mastered or unmastered

[@mahmoodabdulla5938]

Hi . How we can make harmonic choir voice

[@hoodpreacher]

what is the pro q fab what type of plug in is that

[@gdobeg3244]

Where do I find the song?

[@kurtsambles5409]

thanks

[@sarahmakenziee]

any tips on my mic lag? ive been messing with it but when i record into the mic it has a horrific echo and i cant tell if its the soundproofing in the room or just the mic itself. it doesnt lag on the track but when im recording i can hear a huge delay.

[@kenyawna1]

Hw buffer size

[@Yungabel]

Hey Wavy Wayne!! hit me Back bro i got a serious question I’m tryna buy a Template but i got a question if u can make one

[@cadilaktrip6589]

I have to redo all my songs I made today bro.

[@dwoods_817]

Hey guys I have a question about my auto tune it’s like the auto tune doesn’t pick up good but I don’t know if it my mic or interface I have a focusrite 2i2 but I need help?

[@otheproduct]

You have to set the key if you didn’t already. Have the response time down all the way and tune at 100 for max tuning. I have to click to activate it in Nectar 3. Hope that helps

[@MB-ry6ez]

I do the mixing similar like you

[@MeziboyfromdaPOUND]

Any way you can have a male Artist come in and record and show us a male version of this cleaning up male vocals besides yours we love you and wife but I’m just curious

[@Isorelly86]

Wavy gang

[@mamilyfamily]

The Problem im pretty sure every one is having is that most people who teaches how to mix , they raw vocals be sounding great from the beggining ... we will mix for hrs and still wouldnt have a clean sound as the teachers raw mix ( not blaming the teacher ) better equipment is definitely a plus all i have is a akg c214 , a apogee duet 2 , and a laptop ( treated room and a kiotica ball ) what else to i need to get a clean take from jump

[@ronaldperry5007]

A preamp makes your whole mix sound 10xs better. Try the Focusrite isa that brought my whole game up! You can get them used from guitar center for about 3 - 4 hundred!!!

[@mamilyfamily]

[@nomadptgalexandrecarvalho2133]

Thats about the singer, clean recording, no need to clean.
