In this first episode of Season 2 of reacting to my subscriber's songs I'm throwing in the twist that I mix and master music for FREE. As a part of me trying to just make a few people's day during the crazy time going on in the world I will be listening to your original songs and showing you how to mix and master in garageband using Waves plugins, free plugins, and music software like LANDR. If you have any questions about the process please leave a comment and let me know! I had to cut the video down from an hour and a half so some steps may not be included. So for all those music producers, singers and songwriters who aim to be self-sufficient, this is for you! #MusicProduction

[@gavelrecords777]

Peace! Could automation be used instead of a vocal rider? Awesome content bro!!!

[@IAMLXGEND]

That’s a part i said while filming but cut out of the video. Yes automation can be used but to have to manually click in every single up and down to get everything to match would take hours to get as sharp and precise as vocal rider. That’s why I don’t recommend it. But if you want 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@gavelrecords777]

IAMLXGEND IAMLXGEND Thanks for the speedy response bro!! I only ask bc I’ve been recording and performing for a long time but just recently getting into mixing. We all do it but some of us may not move around the mic as much or know to project but keep an even balance in our voice. Love the page and you’ve helped me a lot during Quarantine 💪🏿✌🏿

[@IAMLXGEND]

There’s a time and a place for all types of music. Braggadocio bravado music serves a place and a purpose right next to humble soulful music. The same way breakup songs compliment love songs. To everything there’s a season. I can’t knock an artist for rapping lines like this. I, myself, have written lyrics of owning million dollar mansions, foreign trips and expensive cars and generational wealth. All while driving a 99 Mitsubishi Mirage with a blown head gasket. Why? Because it’s manifestive. I spoke those things as a way to manifest my future. F-ing a B is just his desire. As mine was simply to be wealthy. But the sentiment is the same. The person dreams of a better life. Speak things into existence. It gets dumb when these artists start rapping about shooting and killing people because no one should be doing or aspire to do that. That’s where I would have a problem. But to speak of an upcoming point in your life while you’re still down ain’t nothing but hope to me. And hope is rich. Faith is rich.

I should have been more specific in that regard, but I don't think that the comment was dumb. I turned it off after the song lyrics had repeated a few times, which I gathered would have to occur throughout the whole video.
