Its Not All EQ and Compression!!- Complete Vocal Mixing Tutorial (Beginners Mixing Lesson)

[@Guyfoxmusic]

It’s so surreal to watch you discuss my song! I’m very grateful, thanks Ricky! Great take on the mix and sorry the song got stuck in your head. ;-)

[@AudioHaze]

Thank you for sharing your art my friend!

[@HansMaxiBricks]

would you be willing to share the multitracks with me too? Or any song collab would be great! Would love to get in touch !

[@nubieOSS]

@@AudioHaze no way your name ricky and you got no bb belt. Ts just keep getting wild

[@vladlysak2361]

When will this song be out? It's so brilliant!

[@47Libra]

Bro those backing and choir vocal harmony layers go hard .sick shit.

[@luketaash1238]

You're literally the best. These tutorials do so much for beginners who know how to use their DAW but don't know so much about production. Also you're interacting with your community is just wholesome. Keep up the good work!

[@AudioHaze]

Ahhh I love this so much thank you for leaving this comment :')

[@Charkuri]

I found your channel while looking up mic reviews, but these mixing videos have really encouraged me to give it a go myself. I've learned a lot! I really appreciate all the effort you put into these, man!

[@AudioHaze]

Oh my gosh you just made my day, thank you so much for saying this. Thats my whole strategy haha. Lure you in with gear and then try and teach!!

[@grieze-skan]

Goodness, Ricky. I'm an utter fan of your mixing style, taste, skill or whatever is at play here. Absolutely love your version of the song, and love the way you walk us through your thoughts and decisions in your mixing process. Really hope more mixing videos are in the pipeline!

[@grieze-skan]

Also, such a lovely and warm song Mr. Guy Fox wrote.

[@AudioHaze]

Ah thank you so much I love this comment! Definitely more coming soon, very soon :)

[@techmed-rainer]

Danke!

[@AudioHaze]

WOW that is INSANELY generous of your Rainer that is the most of I have ever received by far. I can not thank you enough for this, you are truly a saint!!

[@michaelmay9059]

It's interesting to hear the difference. Fox's vocals sounds like it's on top or above the instruments. Haze's vocals sound like like it's sitting inside the instruments. In a good way

[@joushagold4068]

With every video you post, i grow more grateful for you and your channel🙏🏾 you’re making a world of a difference man, thank you!

[@AudioHaze]

Oh my god you're going to make me cry thank you so much :')

[@komputer_os]

Thank you. There are a lot of "KZbinrs" that do mic reviews and audio stuff and they are talking out of their back when it comes to audio. They can't tell the different between a good or bad audio signal.

[@AudioHaze]

Well I'm glad I could help out a little bit then! :)

[@garailac]

This is just about the best vocal mixing video on KZbin.

[@MrKarlGP]

Vocak is my new fave default guide vocal name :)

[@AudioHaze]

Good, thats some nice session organization, sure to improve your mixes :)

[@clayteasouth]

Yo you sound good on that mic!

[@AudioHaze]

Thanks man!

[@techmed-rainer]

What is astounding, that you can even hear a huge difference when listening on a smartphone. Much more clear on headphones though. Great work!

[@AudioHaze]

Thank you! I believe the big difference is the added high end for sure :)

[@techmed-rainer]

@@AudioHaze You're right ... for sure 😊

[@benoittissier58]

Super interesting, thanks !

[@AudioHaze]

Thanks for watching my friend! You've been around for quite some time, appreciate your watching :)

[@tedc6694]

Really like this premise

[@AudioHaze]

Thanks Ted!

[@HansMaxiBricks]

very interested to hear this mix in mono. Perhaps focus your next video on that topic? I think stereo is kinda dying (not counting headphones since they are not true stereo)

[@AudioHaze]

Interesting! Why do you think stereo is dying? Because of binaural audio or because of something else?

[@tessapoutiainen4043]

Could you please do a tutorial on how to learn to mix on garage band!! love your videos, I can't stomach other videos on music production (ADHD) but your videos really are engaging and clear love it

[@atahate]

I'll give you my raw acoustic guitar that I cover on my channel. I can't get rid of that transient. Want to learn how to make it softer so listener can relax while listening...

[@AudioHaze]

I'd be down to check it out! Send me an email, address in the description :)

[@techmed-rainer]

Very nice and helpful lesson, thank you!

[@AudioHaze]

And thanks for watching and all of your support!

[@HansMaxiBricks]

Wow, awesome mix! Nice song as well! Cheers

[@AudioHaze]

Thank you Hans!

[@purpleheart69420]

Aye man that was insane, youre like all in one, goddamn that your mix sounded insane (not that the artists mix sound bad cuz I actually like it a lil bit more raw if you ya know what i mean) I would love to participate in one of those but my songs are in portuguese :')

[@AudioHaze]

Who cares!! Send it over, would love to work with it :) I've recorded tons of songs in Spanish, language doesn't matter

[@Sarsour_]

What would be the equivalent of a routing folder in Ableton? Should I just group all the backing tracks and add the processing on that group or does the routing folder your talking about in Protools send the processing to each track separately somehow?

[@DrewHughesMusic]

That’s very impressive.

[@hosmapl]

Big fan from Mexico. I usualy have the izotope vocal doubler in the background vocals if I don't feel I have enough takes but you mention chorus for stereo image, can you go a little more deep into it?

[@AudioHaze]

I would love to! Yeah vocal doubling can have amazing results, rather than doing it via plug in. You do have to be a very good singer though, capable of duplicating the same vocal take very similarly

[@Anhidema]

Fresh Air is amaaaaazing , and mic mod from antares and rvox

[@AudioHaze]

Some quality plug in for sure!

[@lovebandx]

I liked this video at so many points throughout that I ended up liking and removing the like repeatedly till I ultimately realized what I was doing n left the like button alone.

[@leandrobremer-music]

How can I send you a song? :)

[@westnfexion]

Hey I’d like to send you a song. Are you still making videos off of songs?

[@mikafoxx2717]

The mix sounds great, though I prefer a little less compression.

[@AudioHaze]

Thanks Mika! It is certainly a bit compressed :)

[@GuitarMAN2207]

Here for the vocak

If you're a narrator you might be concerned about ratios, but also creating emotion with Heratio.

@@AudioHaze I just got up from a nap and I'm not entirely coherent.

[@seanwebb605]

I also have little to nothing to add regarding mixing for music.

[@saxofonistacr]

yours sounds way better

[@yagonagos]

Help

[@AudioHaze]

KZbin statistics told me you've officially received more hearts from me than any other viewer lol

[@johnwallace2319]

not sure if he was doing a hi-pass radio effect on purpose, but this is like night and day, this is what separates good mix from bad, in my opinion. And lots of indie people, myself included made this mistake, but slowly a few of us learn. You can see what I mean with my own music, earlier songs are not as clear when it comes to vocals or they are too clear and jarring, later on I learned a few tricks, still learning, but vids like this really help.

Come visit me :'(

[@Nathansomething]

No don’t make my have to eq my vo’s I’ll buy a 67 so I don’t have to edit my vo s (That’s that expensive Neumann mic, more than the u87i)

[@AudioHaze]

lol yeah I mean getting a u67 I guess is a solution, although even that can sound better with the right EQ, its about the context in the mix
