How to Record Vocals Like a PRO (From Your Home Studio) | The KEY to Professional Sounding Vocals

[@Owangatang]

imo, the most important part about this video was hearing you talk about things that i’m already unknowingly doing. real confidence boost

[@Lookitwasmel]

Pure energy tutorial ever I've seen on the Internet ✨

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@matt_nyc_audioengineer]

I'm 1 minute in and you already hit them with the BIG ONE! I was literally JUST talking with a client about this tonight. I am mixing her 2nd EP and she asked why this one sounds so much better so far. I told her it's because you took all those tips I gave you and you gave me PRISTINE tracks to work with this time! :D

[@MadRezStudios]

Isnt it great how much easier it is to work with properly recorded audio? 💯🤙🏽

[@matt_nyc_audioengineer]

@@MadRezStudios Easy isn't what really matters to me personally it's the quality I can get out of them! Everything just sounds soo freaking good lol. Easy definitely helps tho too!! :D

[@deathshadow999]

You literally just saved my life. I just realized I've been digging my own grave for several months now after watching your video. You have no clue how much time I've spent on KZbin watching mixing and Mastering videos, my mixes still sounding like crap and me thinking I'm probably just unlucky or bad at mixing when the problem has been bad vocal recordings the whole time. You just got a new subscriber!

[@MadRezStudios]

Yo thats whats up fam! That is what I was aiming to do with this video!

[@xleox3570]

My favorite tip was vocal comping to get the perfect lead take. I’ve always heard of doing this but the way you broke it down helped me fully understand why I should be doing it from now on

[@MadRezStudios]

Vocal comping is a must in the professional vocal world. Some artists dont always need to but even some of the most talented artists use the technique to really get the very BEST performance for the song.

[@xleox3570]

@@MadRezStudios really appreciate the advice. Definitely going to incorporate it!

[@SoJesusChristMusic]

Love his confidence

[@junestone]

amazing!! thanks for the great advice! I am now one step close to laying down some super sweet high-quality PRO VOX

[@BeautifulByNature3369]

Your screen saver is exactly what I have on my 55 inch TV all the time I don’t even watch TV I just have that background always moving. I get a lot of inspiration from all the stuff I see and I love the movement. I am a MacGyver type of guy I can literally build anything. I’ve been giving this a lot of thought lately making my own sound booth and watching your video actually gave me inspiration. I already have it built in my head and I have the best idea and I’m going to build it and do a KZbin video. I think I will be the very first one to ever do it! I have a feeling I will inspire some people the way you inspired me. Thank you 😊

[@imbampy4135]

That was a dense lesson....have learnt what I could learn in a million yrs

[@jeaneuwii]

Oh wow thank you fo this helpful video! Things got more clear now , but still feels like i will need a recording COACH if that even possible... 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@GrandMen]

Humble request: can you please show us what to look for when doing the EQ sweep, and the C6 MB? I understand we’re looking for harsh sounds but sometimes we misjudge these sound. Sometimes I’d have 4 or 5 bands with narrow Q that I’ve dumped down! Thank you professor 👨🏽‍💻

[@MadRezStudios]

Totally, that's a great idea for a video thanks for the request!

[@skinnymikadelox2009]

Even though I knew 90% of this, it still brought new information and ideas to me. So thanks bro, appreciate you taking the time to do this! Much love🙏💙

[@mystikrebel1089]

Brilliant tutorial covering everything into detail

[@joshuachisanga8417]

You are a star.kkkkkkk. i was told that i don`t have to use a vocal temp with preset effects already added because they distort the vocals on recording. its like they wanted to hear how bad i sound without effects then they can prejudge me.

[@xtkfpv5306]

Love the bonus tip, vocal presets, very smart for establishing a consistent unique production style. Just like recording artists develop a certain sound, so it is with production artists. For example Quincy Jones had such a unique production sound. You can hear his influence across the board regardless of the artist he was working with and even if you can't name the artist or the song, you know that Quincy produced it.

[@MadRezStudios]

Great point! Quincey was king 🤴🏿

[@siyothegreat3162]

You're a great teacher.

Im happy because I understood everything and I speak Spanish uchdvc that means that I'm a pro on English and now I know how to get better vocals, but you talk so fast!!

Thank you!! The first minute of the video literally explains the most important thing to newer tracking engineers if you get a super clean recording the mixing will be easy as fuck

[@fredcrewneck]

This made me want to record some songs right now lol

[@emyhR]

20 years ago when I put my first recording online. Somebody commented that sounded like I was reading off paper and could even hear it in the recording and ever since then I never read off anything when recording. I actually don’t even write down anything anymore which makes it easy to write while driving to my full time job but also makes it real easy to forget stuff

[@cutcari5526]

the way he explains really gets my gears turning LOL

[@TeezyTarantino]

Fantastic vid my guy! Everything was so crucial and well laid out i had to take notes! Appreciate the great advice!

[@PeeyushLuthra]

You are awesome ❤️... Love from India ☮️

[@statostheman]

I recommend to buy Neumann 105 blk and ssl 2+ sound interface. With that 2+, the 4k button...I promise you'll never going back. I had many recordings in my apartment and each time the artist listen they always said: "Yo, its sounds that I'm in the booth".

[@itsgtrz]

Hey bro! Thanks for your advice, this and your mixing mini course has really stepped up my game. I don’t mean to be disrespectful but I think you should consider using a De Esser on your voice overs, it might be my sensitive hearing but I find it a little bit harsh. Love your content, subscribed!

[@MadRezStudios]

Thanks bro! I agree actually I have been noticing that too. Ironic teaching a "how to mix vocals" video and have harsh vocals in the tutorial! 😂Note taken!

@@MadRezStudios I didn’t notice this - thought your vocal chain sounds prime.

Bro u saved my ep lol i didnt understand why my vocals were not sounding like the music i like and realised its my recording technique, i used to double and triple everything even the verse , it would completely take away the tone and texture of my voice , i already dropped one of the singles but now i know wats wrong after using ur info to record today it sounds like how i want . bless uo🔥🔥🔥

[@officiallistengreatmuzik]

@8:15 how can I get my vocal transient smooth like that?

[@MadRezStudios]

Those transients are clipped and is what you DO NOT want. To control the dynamics and get a more smooth and balanced transient, you would use a mix of your vocal performance style and compression.

[@officiallistengreatmuzik]

@MadRezStudios ok I'll give it a shot.

[@eurotherehegoes2498]

A pre amp if you can afford it , is a great addition to a studio , with a eq setting , I use a warm audio pre amp so greatv

Thanks for those great tips. I will surely put it in practice and have it written down for me to follow.
