[@obidavekenobe]

When setting a compressors attack and release, try watching how the gain reduction meter moves with the singers singing. You should SEE the meter moving more where you HEAR the singer gets louder and release at the same rate as the singer gets softer. In other words, your setting the compressor to react to the singer instead of guess on the milliseconds. Using your ear, you will get a more organic and transparent sounding compression. Think of of compressor as a time-based effect and then you can begin to understand how it can be used for tone control, and just volume, when used in conjunction with an EQ. So, with that said, do you EQ first or compress…. It really depends what you are trying to accomplish.

[@jasonbull3987]

As a soloist male singer with a baritone voice, I'll often put low cut at 80 or even 70hz. I can play around my lower vocal now without muddying them up. If I was in a full band I get 100 or 120 Hz cut off. If I'm also using a condensor or better quality microphone, I'll get the clearest and less distorted signal if I sing at least 1 or 2 inches from that mike. If I didn't know how to control my voice enough, I'd definitely get that low cut happening or reduced lower frequencies, if I'm mixing for a girl singer, I'll often boost certain lower frequencies to give their voice a warm rich tone. Not saying anything against your video or ideas, just how it best works for me in live setting.

[@buelow123]

Great video for beginners. It is really easy to understand. I would recommend to experiment with some settings if you feel comfortable with the workflow he mentioned. 1. Try up to 3 frequencies to clean up the vocal. 2. Try out different attack settings for the compressor. 10 ms is really just a starting point. Try going up to 40 ms and see how it changes the sound. 3. Experiment a lot

Hi kade good day😊 Can you just tell me how to do frequency sweeping in an analogue mixer? Thanks.

[@buelow123]

On most analogue mixers you have at least an adjustable mid frequency. To sweep you turn the lvl of the mids up and then change the frequency of the mids. Depending on the console, you might be able to do this also with the lows and highs, but if you're unlucky you might not be able to do it at all, if you have fixed frequencies for each region. Then you would try to find the sweet spot with what you're given.

Drums are most important

[@collabworship]

Strip it down to 1 thing on the stage, and what's the most important part (when it comes to music that an audience participates in, like worship)? Vocals. Drums are undoubtedly an important part of a "good mix" with a full band, but not the most important. You can have a song without them. Can't have a song without vocals. And people can't sing along very easily if they can't hear them. That's why we say vocals are most important.

All the principles would still apply in your case. You'd just be doing it inside of logic.

[@DorisDay-lw4xs]

@@collabworshipThanks. I was hoping you’d say that 😊👍🏻

[@ranwang7104]

What do you do if you set the gain in the right level, but your fader won’t reach 0db, and is much lower than 0? Do you leave the fader where it is? Or do you reduce the gain to bring the fader to close to 0db?

[@collabworship]

There's no need for the fader to be at 0 (also referred to as unity). Zero is just your mark for the volume at baseline, not being cut or boosted (based on the gain level). Cutting the volume from zero is ok. It doesn't have to be at 0.

[@rhinobart]

By and large achieving a proper level using gain is far more important than where your fader is set. However, fader position isn’t entirely arbitrary either. Because the dB scale on faders is logarithmic (meaning the level of adjustment over a given span is not the same throughout the entire range of the fader) having faders close to 0 is still preferable. Just not at the expense of gain/signal level. Being around 0 allows for finer adjustments to your levels than if your fader is down around, say -40 dB. If ALL of your faders are very low with proper gain settings, it likely means you have “too much PA” for your room.

[@caleconrad2332]

is there a benefit to putting the "gain" to +6? or using that gain setting at all?

[@domitianbaicu7970]

You need to use some makeup gain but it's usually all about what flavour do you want, just play around with it and search tutorials for compressor applications in live sound reinforcement ✌️I for one would recommend more of an 3-4 db makeup gain

[@rhinobart]

There are no real hard and fast rules. What you’re hearing in this video are just recommendations. But the reason he chose 6 dB of gain on the compressor is because he was targeting 6 dB of gain reduction with the compressor. So what’s happening overall is that you’re reducing the loudest portions of the audio signal by 6 dB, and then boosting the compressed signal by the 6 dB you’ve lost. The result is that your signal is just as loud, but the volume difference between the quietest and loudest sounds is reduced.

[@caleconrad2332]

Could I do half of the make up gain and use the fader to adjust for the rest of it? or is the point to never move my vocal fader in the mix ever?@@rhinobart

[@rhinobart]

@@caleconrad2332 well, you’re kind of talking about two different things. So you COULD push your fader up to get an equivalent volume increase, but gain (and make up gain on the compressor) are different, mostly because of where they occur in the signal chain internally. The idea is to get a nominal gain level as early in the signal chain as possible, as it impacts everything later in the chain (EQ, FX, other dynamics processing depending on exactly what you’re talking about, and even things like monitors, streams, or recording if you’re running those off the same console). So you want to send the fullest, cleanest signal possible to those later stages. However the fader occurs essentially at the end of the signal chain. So ultimately, while you may again get an equivalent increase in volume, you’re negatively impacting everything between the compressor and the fader. Now that’s not to say that you absolutely have to apply the same amount of makeup gain as the level of compression. You don’t absolutely have to do anything. But that’s a pretty good target to be around as a general rule of thumb.

Pause, it should also never be any closer than an inch from the mouth. 3" is fine as long as it's pointed at the back of the throat. If you're too close, especially with a booming voice, you will overdrive the diaphragm and lose dynamic range.

[@uncajesse]

For compressing singing mics on an X32 I'm using attack 28 ms, release 450 ms, peak, with high pass side chain at 250 Hz ... Anything faster than that and the sound of the vocals can become harsh because of how the attack stage is shaping the waveform, and it generally just sounds over processed. I'll often bring up the soft knee to 3. This also greatly reduces the proximity effect. For speech mics, same settings, with release at 750 ms, and sometimes soft knee at 5, and ratio at 5:1. This allows the board operator to rarely need to touch the faders between someone cupping the microphone at their belly button, and someone eating the mic. Of course you also need a high pass at 170 Hz or so, and if you have wedges with that much gain potential, you gotta ring em out and nothing wrong with active feedback mitigation for them. Try it out, and see what you think. The lack of harshness at more intense parts is stunning. This is part of the key to great sound on a large system. The other is dynamic EQ on everything, and well... That's another big reason people own DiGiCo boards, and why they sound great. Relaxed compression, and dynamic EQs. Free plugins on a computer can solve this with an X32.

[@ethanwright752]

Exactly this slower attack and release will mimic the smooth opto vibe and sounds way better than the settings this guy recommends. only do the fast settings he uses if you have the ability to use two compressors so you can use the faster settings for gentle peak limiting

[@pswim62]

I'm an amateur for sure, so I don't really understand the 6dB output gain in the compressor. Just seems hot for makeup gain...

[@vaundelbrackin7548]

The 6db that Kade talked about in the video isn’t for make up gain. It’s for gain reduction; the amount by which the compressor reduces the signal when it’s at its loudest.

[@chris58585]

@@vaundelbrackin7548 Actually, at 7:55 Kade does set the make-up gain to +6db, before he goes into setting the threshold (where he talks about reducing the gain by around 6db). @pswim62 I'm an amateur on this stuff as well, but I agree that a constant 6db of make-up gain might be a bit much. Considering you're reducing by a maximum of 6db in the loudest parts, I find I often add around 3db back in, if any. I regularly just ride the faders as needed. But as I said, I'm an amateur and don't know if using make-up gain has other benefits.

[@buelow123]

The make up gain isn't that important. It doesn't change the sound. It just makes sure that you have enough signal after the compression. Depending on what you are compressing, you will need that make up gain. Or you can use it when you are compressing different things differently so your faders all behave the same way. But it's totally up to you.

[@collabworship]

You can set makeup gain to whatever works for your situation. In my case, adding 6dB of makeup gain gets the level back to where I want it. If gain and amps are set correctly, this will put your lead vocal fader at about 0dB.

[@JesusIsKingNY]

Makeup gain is making up for the gain reduction so it should be set to bring the level back up to where it was before compression. If the target is 6db of gain reduction, 6db makeup gain should be close. Don’t use the makeup gain to boost the signal much more though, if you need to do that, you probably need to go back and adjust your input gain on the preamp. I’ve seen improper use of the gate and compressor gains by untrained users causing feedback issues. Proper gain structure is important.

[@tedchoi8488]

I cannot agree on applying HPF on every mic channel. It would be ideal in quick live mixing without rehearsal, but applying it in such high frequency above 120Hz will definitely lose warmth and volume of the vocal. When I am in a situation where I have no time to rehearse, I would put between 110Hz-130Hz, but less filter, better the sound. I put pop filters on mic first, and use HPF to its minimum.

[@collabworship]

Vocals don't need to occupy those frequencies in a live setting. Also don't need those frequencies bleeding into the mic from your instruments. We use these suggested settings on our vocals and they still have plenty of warmth.

[@SteveOllis]

Thanks for a great video! I'd add a 3rd point for mic placement: "Don't place your hand over the antenna". It shouldn't have that much of an effect if the receivers are well-placed or in an interference-free area, but its worth considering.

[@usefulskillsandknowledge8765]

1 inch is too close to the mouth. The mic captures the pop sounds and air. Eventually can't clean it

[@collabworship]

Yep. It's a trade-off when it comes to live sound. Dealing with a little more pops and air is better than dealing with extra stage noise and feedback. That's why we recommend keeping it close.

[@godzi2814]

I agree and disagree of the first point. Firstly I agree as it is right what you mentioned. Secondly, I disagree as it is not compulsory to have it an inch away from your mouth. It clearly depends on the texture. People with boxy or muddy sound usually stand a little further, even 6 inches away depending on how you want the texture to sound. Going further away clearly means more gain to have a healthy signal beforehand.

[@collabworship]

In a studio setting, yes. Keep the mic a little further away to get the best tone from it. In a live scenario, it's usually best to keep it as close as possible to lower gain and reduce stage noise and potential feedback.

[@elirodriguez514]

Wow! Je suis rarement tombé sur un truc aussi bidon! Désolé, mais ce coup ci, je réagis... Le son, c'est mon job depuis 40 ans, et le live depuis 20... Alors, on va debunker pour les francophones qui ont fait l'effort de regarder en ricain... - Gain: c'est le seul domaine où je suis d'accord, à 100% - Pas plus d'un pouce (2.54 cm) de la bouche au micro!!! Dommage, ça partait bien, mais là, c'est cata, et ça explique beaucoup pourquoi le son est aussi pourri dans sa démo, boueux, pâteux: ça s'appelle l'effet de proximité, et un bon chanteur joue avec: regardez n'importe quelle vidéo d'Aretha Franklin, et demandez vous ce qui serait arrivé au prémp si elle avait gardé le micro à 2cm! Non, la distance micro fait partie des paramètres à apprendre quand on chante: un micro est une oreille, et on ne gueule pas dans l'oreille des gens. Par contre, si on veut être intime, chaleureux, on rapproche le micro, presque à le toucher... - L'équa: le principe est assez bon, mais il ferait mieux de monter son Hi P,ass et de mieux chercher les fréquences qui "grattent". Même si je répugne à faire de l'eq additive, j'aurai quand même tenté de donner de la présence (vers 4k) et de l'air (10k) à sa piste... sans oublier que l'eq va aussi dépendre de ce qu'il y a autour: les concerts a capella, c'est rare! Mais même sans instru, dans sa démo, après eq et coupe bas, c'est à peine mieux qu'avant... - Le compresseur: là, c'est du grand n'importe quoi! D'abord les paramètres qui marchent avec une X32 (pas vraiment championne de la compression), et d'une dLive ou d'une Quantum par exemple, n'ont rien à voir: chaque console live a sa propre réponse aux paramètres dyn, ensuite, choisir un ratio de 3 et un release à 10, ça marche sur certaines voix, pas du tout sur d'autres... Un compresseur, comme un équa, n'est jamais un truc à régler à l'aveugle. Ou alors, on sait très bien ce qu'on fait, et on connait son matos et la source parfaitement. Mais mes réglages de comp pour une voix lead vont de 1,6/1 à 10/1 pour la ratio, de 20ms à 500ms pour le release, pour parler que de ça... Dans son exemple, un ratio de 5 à 7 avec une attaque plus longue, pour calmer les envolées de qq dB sans trop toucher à l'enveloppe aurait sûrement mieux arrangé les choses... Si vous voulez apprendre le son, arrêtez de regarder ce genre de bullshit sur yt: fréquentez des musiciens, des sondiers, allez les voir bosser, écoutez, observez, écoutez... J'espère que l'auteur fera pas l'effort de me traduire, il serait vexé, mais si je peux protéger qq passionnés de ses bêtises, j'aurai pas perdu mon temps...

These are principles designed to help people who have no background in sound mixing (mostly in small churches). Keeping things as simple as possible is the most effective message for them. Also, not offended by your words. We're confident that what we put out is not nonsense because it works at our small church and has for many others. Sorry that you thought it was all bogus. Safe to say that we are not for everyone. 🙂

You are a bad speaker ,you are speaking fast to impress that you can speak fast.😩🤯🤒🤫

[@collabworship]

It's a pretty normal speed of talking here in the US. You can always drop the playback speed on KZbin if you need it slower though.

if you need effects to enhance your voice give up singing

[@collabworship]

You are aware that every professional vocalist uses effects (such as reverb) on their voice in the studio and live, right? Effects have nothing to do with covering up a lack of skill. They "enhance" the vocal and make it even better.
