How to Use Everything in iZotope Nectar, Vocal Mixing Plug-in | From Scratch

[@DylanRotich]

The best thing about izotope is they consistently drop the best videos on KZbin

[@RogerBeckett]

Geoff “The Voice” Manchester, you’re Izotope’s secret weapon. They’re very lucky to have you, and so are we. Thank you very much for all your help with helping us to make the best use of all the amazing Izotope products. 🙏

[@Jpetersson]

Every plugin company needs to make videos like this for their plugins, this is incredible!

[@afungangmusic]

It's almost like sitting with a buddy in the studio, sipping fine whiskey and just chatting about a software we created! You sir are a genius! Excited to buy you a drink or coffee in the near future. Thank you for all you do for us up and coming artists, you and the whole team at Izotope 😊❤️🙏🏾

[@TazGoldstein]

FANTASTIC tutorial! I own a bunch of Izotope products, but often feel like I’m not getting as much out of them as I could. This video was a PERFECT remedy! Please keep this series going! Really looking forward to the next one.

[@seanraye]

Dude I love how you teach, I'm in the barbershop cutting hair watching this and still learning

[@felixftp9670]

I need this for all Izotope Products! That's so nice!

[@johnhowarthmusic8706]

Always such professionally and intelligibly presented tutorials by you, and your iZotope colleagues. Thank you.

[@x2cbeats611]

SMART MOVE! Promote these with the membership, this would be a great way of teaching the newbs like me about your amazing suite of plug ins!!

[@nastybuttler]

Let's not have them hide free knowledge behind a paywall. I would like to just buy a plugin and not have to worry about paying a subscription every month. In 2030 we're gonna have to pay subscription for our subscriptions I swear. Let's notttt lol

[@mrratskins]

Superb. And I don't say that lightly. I started with Izotope with Ozone 1 and worked my way through the excellent print tutorial. After a major hardware and software upgrade I'm now up to date with most of the newest Izotope products and I'm glad to see that Izotope is continuing in their tradition of excellent tutorials. After all, even the best tool is worthless if you don't know how to use it! Thumbs up.

[@filipnarada]

You are a very good teacher. Excellent tutorial! Thank you.

[@bg4productions]

Really needed this video. The crowd is correct, definitely one of the best ever. Especially the intercommunication explanations.

[@about2flip]

Thank you!!! I love that you did this. Now I’ll be using this more.

[@Belgium046]

i bought the Izotope ozone advanced bundle two weeks ago , and yes , i can use some (a lot) of help ! this video is worth a million , and helps me forward fast ! Thank you so much .

[@LBJedi]

This was so helpful! I’ve been using Nectar Elements for a while, and this has been helpful for even that. Also, this made definitely made me want to upgrade. AND, that photo analogy for frequency masking was brilliant; so simple but made me think of it in such a new great way. Thank you!

[@hendricksam]

Yikes! This is a BIG one. Even for a seasoned user of Nectar, I'm learning a lot.

[@daveycrockett9447]

This video is the reason i purchased Nectar 3 Plus. Incredible video. Well done.

[@DarrylFortune]

Thank you, Excellent instructions. Very clear and easy to follow!!

[@ayurmonk1]

Excellent detailed yet understandable explanation! Bravo👏👏

[@cgsmithinnola]

I have to admit I haven't really used my Nectar Plus yet, but this video has inspired me to try it out this weekend!

[@auraandtheowls]

I can’t thank you all enough for the great work you’re doing and the accessibility to musicians.

[@piftik5190]

This is what I have been craving for long time - complete tutorial of your products. Please continue with all your products, this is invaluable. Thank you for that.

[@shileichang9562]

Tutorial is a KILLER ! LOVE you being so patient and professional !

[@KevinCorderMusic]

This is awesome! I got a few packs of plugins, and there's definitely some I never really dove into. Can't wait for more videos like this.

[@baselinesweb]

Your tone and style is perfect for this type of video. I didn't know about the dynamic unmask in relay. I'm going to have to try that out. I hope it's in both versions. I don't have the subscription version.

[@SouthYarraMan]

Congrats to all at Izotope for creating this amazing plugin. Thank you ❤ Brilliant tutorial

[@TyBeTroLLing]

Izotope makes creating feel worthwhile

[@maaaquemeseyo]

All this series are amazing, the perfect tutorials.

[@Creature_NL]

I can't remember i was watching a tutorial for an hour. Ok, i skipped some like reverb and delay but your voice, the vocal, the easy music and especially the volume balance between everything makes it very pleasant to listen to.

[@jerryg7491]

The most pragmatic and musician directed tutorial on the net. Insight would be nice as the next 'deep dive'

[@seanbrucemedia5695]

This is greatness! The entire series is excellence! Started with Neutron, now I'm here in Nectar and headed to Ozone next... I'm supposed to be mixing right now, but am riveted by these phenomenal deep dive tutorials on iZotope's mixing tools... Oh well, my results will be even better, in less time because of it.

[@deffecto]

Great tutorial for all - from beginners to advanced users. Your approach is perfect and you have created powerful tool. Thank you.

[@sunnyzaman]

Excellent tutorial. Thank you!

[@allybeatz4853]

I love izotope products ..from Nector .neutron to ozone

[@zeezedzipster]

Really useful to go through the whole thing in this level of detail.

[@annagrande558]

Finally, been waiting for these videos. Good. Please make one with Ozone 9!

[@nawalllllls]

great video very helpfull,,,,appriciated, wish to continue with all izotop great plugins neutron and elements specially...thank you again

[@richardsisk1770]

Just getting started with Izotope at a sorta youthful 73. This is so well presented. Thanks 😊

[@C2stream]

Awesome video! I've been using the iZotope suite for a while, but this video showed me some new things which I haven't been using. I'm thinking I should be using more of the individual modules on more tracks!

[@franbert6218]

How to set up a de-esser. OMG! Now there’s a hidden gem. Game changer. Thanks dude.

[@jeremymull6138]

I am total agreement with the general consensus that these are great tutorials that you do. I absolutely adore everything iZotope does. And these tutorials just add to that overall experience in spades. Unless you guys somehow manage to really shit the bed in the future, you've got a customer for life in me.

[@enlightenedaudio2073]

I'm on the process of trial on r x 10 and I and I am doing a edit for my friend's video for the 1st time. Your videos are so smooth. I gotta use that word smooth because your Mike sounds good and you. Explain things so well not just technically but the aspects of. Outside of technical thank you for what you do.

[@mikeswell9021]

Love izotope! The best tool for songwriters

[@von_Apa]

My favorite teacher making me go back to all my fantastic Izotope plugins! 🙏🏻🎶💥

[@artale4404]

Just great! Direct and focused with excellent examples and "how to" functionality. Sooo good!!

[@jlyonia]

Just another voice to add to the chorus of thanks. This format is great. Despite regularly using Nectar already, I learnt a lot.

[@johnmichaelmacdonald9117]

Great idea to do this series - just what I needed. Thanks so much!

[@vinomakon]

The microphone sounds SO CRISP! I don't know how you did that, but it sounds AMAZING!

[@MHMusicman24]

I'm brand new to Isotope Nectar and this was an incredible video. Thanks for the great intro to the product!

[@impossiblemusicforce]

Great possibilities! And I like it that Izotope makes this videos! Its a problem that users do not use the tools the right way because they do not really know what they do! And your presentation is really well! Everytime!

[@qddk9545]

That was a very good walk through. I am one of the guys who once bought them, but never used them. A fantastic presenter!

[@WaveBits]

Super tutorial. I like how much is packed into one plugin for vocals with Nectar. The harmony module though, the copied voicings sounded out of key to me - wonder if the fine tune would straighten that out. Otherwise, really useful look at Nectar.

[@antgeeze7129]

Has to be the best breakdown I’VE ever

[@thomfraney6893]

What an AMAZING tutorial. Seriously, probably one of the best I've ever experienced. Makes me want to get even more tools from you guy... as though I don't already have them ALL! Well done and thanks so much.

[@linfordrichards8395]

Awesome tutorial, with many thanks🎙🎶🎶🎶👌🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@KenneYee]

Nectar 3 Plus is amazing, are you gonna release Nectar 4 soon @izotope? I love your latest versions for Neutron and Ozone and need the Nectar Pro features like intelligent vocal identification 😄

[@FatHeadMovie]

Thank you so much for this series! Excellent, clear explanations of the iZotope tools.

[@davidmucci]

Jeff, THANK YOU for this. For us newbies, this series is invaluable. I find myself not using most if the functionality because I either don’t know it’s there or it’s confusing. Please do all of the iZotope products! Perhaps you could set up an email for the public to send questions which you could answer. You rule and thanks again.

[@djjuno106]

just bought nectar 3 plus...quick heads up its not just for vocals ..ive just used it with massive x and its amazing for helping problem synths sit better in a mix. amazing product and highly recommend everyone to try it out.

[@psygameboy]

Love you Guys! Thanks for the effort in this great tutorial!

[@thesundreamers8423]

Your tutorials are fantastic. So good in fact that I am thinking of getting rid of Waves Real Tune, FF Pro mb, and Decapitator, Raum out of my vocal chain and just using Nectar 3. You are gifted teacher.

[@WBCStudio.]

I have almost all the iZotope plugins, but my computer CPU and RAM didn't allow me to use them. But now that I have a 64GB of RAM, the sky the limit. Thanks for this video tutorial.

[@stuartfrank3402]

Wow this is like going to college,absolutely brilliant!!. Made logical! My go to for reference now. Working with Reason propellerhead for so long and sooo technical this is a breath of fresh air. Thank you. Subbed and purchased 👊🏻

[@banterbanter]

Very good tutorial thanks 🍻 👍🏼

[@michaelmos7497]

Congratulations on this series! Excellently done and a very very good idea to make these in-depth From Scratch tutorials! You are doing your users a great favor and ultimately you too, because these tutorials make your products easier to understand and use them even more effectively. Because not every user (musician) is the great "sound technology specialist" 😉. Thanks a lot for this! Greetings from 🇩🇪

[@RobertHoracemusic]

Thanks for the in-depth tour Geoff! 👍☺️ One thing I wanna say about the ALM mode: it’s not designed to fully even out a vocal like engineers would do manually right? Cause I’ve tried to use it like that and it couldn’t do the job. It feels more like a quick fix for small volume indifferences to prepare for compression.

[@savagetofu1]

Great video!

[@DavePorterBand]

Great work on these tutorials. You're making my mixing work easier, so I can concentrate on creating!

[@Ca33ag3]

Would love one of these for RX although I think it may end up being a multi-part series to really cover all of it, depending on how in-depth you want to get with it

[@andreasweber2573]

Very well explained, Sir. Thank you..

[@yungnilli]

This was very helpful 👏

[@theenigma3490]

Now I can make better vocal mixes. That has been a very informative piece of work. Great work to help amateurs like us

[@messageandmusic]

Thank you for your clear and super understandable presentation!

[@paulchikezieomari]

Very awesome tutorial

[@NewMateo]

I cant believe I've had this pluign for close to a year and never used it. That harmony function is crazy.

[@iklwa.monster7830]

So good! Thank you, you have explained that very well. Looking forward to more! One thing I would really love to learn is which iZotope products can be used together. For example, both Nectar + Ozone 9 has EQ. Do we need both? Or do you use Ozone in Master track only? Slightly confused so some clarification would be great. Thanks again

[@veniaminmedianik1264]

Thank you so much, for great product and tutorial

[@roelgarcia]

Thanks for the in-depth review!

[@Tedbearbeats]

Great tutorial! Do you happen to know what mic and any pre was used on this vocal. Sounds great.

[@tonystrignert]

Thanks very much for this 💖

[@r3m014]

neutron 3 and vocalsynth both would be interesting too. This video here is great!

[@djholla]

Some Features i didnt know that nectar had. Thanks!

[@hadihrekespercussions5512]

LEGENDARY

[@maximeblais2032]

Amazing tutorial you are the best !

[@HSet77]

Great video.

[@compoundaudio]

Love your videos bro. So helpful in visual and break down. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@shogunarki1139]

This is stupidly good

[@sadarahurh8794]

REALLY GREAT TUTORIALS - I love it! You add lots of value to the product by doing this. Purchased full Mix Bundle. This is fantastic product. There are a few minor things I do not like. For example the vertical sliders - when used are often covered by mouse cursor, so the values are no clearly visible. I would rather cee rotary dials or have numeric values at the top. I would also like to be able to enter manual values everywhere with the ability to use cursor Up/Down to change it Ikinda Ableton style adjustment).

[@peterhamfelt1387]

Really good Jeff! Thanks!

[@mozartsbaby]

That was great. Thanks.

[@mainsailsound983]

great tutorial for a great plugin! thanks.

[@breelbeatsradio]

Do Neutron next 🔥

[@tnrplaep]

Excellent!

[@FazzFarrell]

perfect tutorial, thank you!! one wish/feedback i have is to not be limited to 5 seconds of decay in the reverb module. i know there's neoverb but even the decays in there are limited in decay times. sometimes i want super long or infinite reverbs. super nice tutorial tho!

[@williamhogan9376]

Excellent Lesson thank you

[@winslowdonovanbeats]

unreal. thank u so much!!

[@oh515]

Excellent tutorial👌I have most of your products, but I'm not using them a lot. I will use nectar 3+ more. Still, I wonder if it's possible to duck the delay and reverb in nectar? It would be very nice if you were going through all the potential using Relay.

[@mgmusicsa]

Wow, you are best teacher 🎉🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

[@tandy2351]

Excellent tutorial as always! To clarify, should this always be used as the first insert or perhaps the only plugin in the vocal chain?

[@jghosttheconscious]

This plugin is wild ‼️🔥
