[@tayoprism9520]

Nicki also uses the Nuemann m149 which I believe is her main mic because In any videos of her recording that’s what she’s recording with.

[@archiebeatz]

Yes!!! I like that chain of her's as well. Which is why I highlighted at 1:20 that artists have different vocal chains and they change it over the years. The chain that engineer Ariel Chobaz used is my favorite which is why I featured it in this video.

[@tinashesibeko1]

Recently found your channel love the dedication and consistency with this series

[@archiebeatz]

Thank you so much. I really appreciate these words.

[@JaeBTundra1]

Interesting use for the choice of plugins for her vocal chain.

[@archiebeatz]

I know right. Very simple but effective.

[@TheRealNativeSun]

I see a lot of Female artist using this vocal chain. Beyoncé and Ariana Grande have used it at some point.

[@pacinoslimthedrumpadpapii7853]

Definitely Digging this series 💪🏾

[@archiebeatz]

Thanks bro!

[@PurpleChrome]

Dope vid, again. 2nd time here & I’m subbed. So my question is, what are ppl aiming for these days? Tonal quality being enhanced, like low end added to a high pitched singer? Orrrrr, a faithful reproduction of an artist’s voice/vocal? Just curious to ppl’s thoughts on this……..

[@archiebeatz]

Thank you! I hope everyone is here for information and can take that info and forge their own signature vocal chain!

[@holywaterandgreentea]

This is a great series

[@archiebeatz]

Thanks brother

Thank you so much!

I love my wa 251 for its price for rap and singing it just works

[@MetalThrasher91]

Thanks for the great video mate! Do you have a video on plug-ins/gear for vocals with more punch e.g. James Hetfield type. I know metal is not your channel's thing, but maybe something similar? Also, would be really cool if you covered Max Martin.

[@archiebeatz]

You are welcome. I have an older video of plugins for my vocals. I'm going to release an updated version soon. No problem. All types of recordings and vocal style is my thing. When you love it you love it man. Thanks for the suggestion on Max Martin as well!

[@MetalThrasher91]

@@archiebeatz thanks mate, I look forward! Yeah, I’m new to recording and would be very helpful to get a professionals perspective when recording vocals with more punch and how to make it sound bigger (Metallica black album), so if you know anything from the pop industry that would be very helpful. Yes I thought Max Martin tied well in with your Ariana Grande and The Weekend videos. Many thanks mate!

[@iamernieg]

Very nice setup! 💯

[@archiebeatz]

It is right! I need to get this vocal chain asap!

[@Realtalkyou08]

Can you do a video explaining what punch mean when it comes to a vocal or pre amp or whatever. The only punch I understand is concerning kick drum.

[@batmobile50]

The safaree robot plugin did most of the work

[@archiebeatz]

LMAO!!!!!!! I had to put it in there.

[@riasure]

Hey Archie Beatz, someone’s been busy this weeks😄👍🏾. New content coming in at lightning speed😂which is great!! Also, I finally started using the Neumann NDH20 that I purchased for my birthday only just this week! So far so good. Ears are still adjusting😀 as I am so used to the Sennheiser hd650, and the NDH20 introduces a whole new level of detail, but I think these will be great for mixing, so thanks for the recommendation bro!😄 One last thing got response from one of my old posts from you this week. Please confirm if that was you.🙏🏾🙌🏾

[@tayoprism9520]

So glad you’re doing the queen of hip hop…she’s been dominating for over 10 years and is still going strong she got all her haters mad😂

[@archiebeatz]

I know right. She has the crown most definitely.

[@Gang-25j]

What are they exactly mad at?

Does it sound WARM?

[@JaeBTundra1]

Save up for AT4050 it's worth it.

[@tayoprism9520]

@@JaeBTundra1 is that what you use? And is it warm?

[@JaeBTundra1]

@@tayoprism9520 I used it on my EP. You can check my channel. Yes, it can be warm by being transparent because it's a transformer-less mic. So, it's easier to add the right amount of warmth.

[@akgardner5]

@@tayoprism9520 super warm.. My EQ on my pultec generates a crispy mid and high end

Striking while the iron is hot… respect ❤🫡

[@archiebeatz]

Hahahahaha. I have to man.

[@ItsTokkio]

I always wondered why when I rewind a song to Nicki's verse, I see a bar graph and it shows Nicki's verse with a higher amplitude 😅 I thought maybe she uses a different mic chain and her voice has to be processed so that the waves in her part are different from the whole song😅

[@ramencurry6672]

When Archie speaks, I listen

[@archiebeatz]

Hahahahaha, Thank you!

[@thebrownthomascrown917]

Thx bro!

[@jordanmoore1163]

Agree

[@Jon8ight]

Nice vid, but i think ''singer'' vocal chain change sometimes, depend of the studio she record

[@archiebeatz]

Thank you! Exactly which is why I state at 1:20 that artists don't stick with the same vocal chain and change it over the years. I just wanted to highlight this particular chain because I admire the sound. Thanks for commenting.

[@PeaKock-be]

these videos are dope! would love to see if you can find eminems chain...

[@jordanmoore1163]

I Need the Nicki Vocal Chain!!!

[@1_jahwarrior]

Can you compile a good vocal chain within the price range of approximately $2000 - $3000? I'd love to try and obtain something like that. 🙏🏽

[@kensmechanicalaffair]

That's plenty to make a polished professional sound.
