[@MrBeboxpr]

The reason that I have Studio One is because out of the blue pne of your video pop out and I started watching it, did the 30 day try out, man by day 10 I bought it, So much easier, work flow. Every time I see you on a thumbnail I click it and its amazing, I learn every single time! Respect for you and all the Team that brings knowledge 🙏

[@SonicTrinityStudios]

This is a great feature that I always forget about! Thank you Joe!!

[@raphlasne]

Your vocals are impressive, Joe.

[@adz19751]

[@DavidLindsayAus]

Loved that song Joe! 5/4 it sounded like and made a lot of sense! Beautiful, when can we expect to hear the full song? Im gathering on a upcoming EP? Thanks for the lessons too of course 😀

[@steelgig]

Impressing! Especially your singing, that I like very much!

[@pammymartinmusic]

So helpful! I am just starting learning my Presonus 24C and Studio One. Love your voice and you are a wonderful teacher :)

[@gabrielapodaca1102]

[@HuguesLemoine]

Thanks for this very useful video Joe !

[@shake7691]

Brilliant thanks Joe ...life saver!

[@amanofconviction600erodedo5]

Damn Joe I did not know or think you could sing so well. That falsetto was awesome, and coming from your deep talking voice, wow!!!!!!

[@ryanchilcote]

I knew most of the tricks already, just doing a refresher before I lay down my nylon guitar tracks. Consolidate, now that is the one I was missing! Thanks for your help, great vid, and just like everyone else here, AMAZING VOICE and great choice of notes for that chord progression!

[@officialtrellahp4382]

Wow like wow seriously. This dudes voice is amazing. I came here to watch a tutorial stayed for this voice

[@meyermusic9426]

Thank you for the tutorial joe!!

[@Maggai]

Making a separate comp layer was the part that I was missing! Thank you! Also, absolutely amazing singing dude, holy shit.

[@Owl-qh2rh]

Just done my first comping along with this vid! Awesome! Thanks heaps it was very helpful 🙏🕊️

[@rickdeaguiar-musicreflecti7692]

Nicely done, Joe. And your voice is awesome :)

[@teddybeargram3]

I have been watching you for years. Way before you hooked up with studio one. You have taught me so much. Today u made me laugh cause in all the years of watching you. I have never heard you be cocky. You said if I need to use melodyne for pitch correction. But I don't lmfaooooooo. Your voice sounds great

[@Curtis-C]

beautiful vocals

Such a great voice 😮

[@alperenmerttaskin6642]

wow🤩 thank you for these tips and listening experience

[@hansends5815]

really cool Radiohead vocal feel Joe - keep it coming

[@fuzzypancake123]

Good video and studio one keeps impressing me!! Two notes though: 1. At 8:20 you say that you can't color the layers individually, but you can! The color selector is to the right of the layer solo button. 2. At 11:59 you have the third layer soloed and never take it off, which means none of the stuff you do after actually makes it into the song. Would probably be nice if soloed layers showed up in the left side inspector because it completely overrides the selected layer without showing you. 😁

[@TadDoylemusic]

Excellent tutorial Joe. Thanks. Great singing BTW.

[@daneanderson9743]

lovely vocals Joe, can't decide which is more amazing, your vocals or S1

[@maximrecords5492]

Great job! Thank you

[@Boilerman-music]

Great Voice Joe!!

[@austinbridge]

Joe, you didn't have to go this hard for a comping tutorial, but you did. Nailed those highs every single time. Jukebox Hero. ❤‍🔥 P.S. What was that vocal fx chain?

[@dragonheatbeats9944]

Awesome video, I have been doing this manually for years… over a decade intact and I am very good at it… some of the artists I have worked with call it my “chop suey” style, in addition I would move backups around to match Main etc.. (hip hop) .. but this is pretty cool. I have also had an artist record like 3-5 takes all the way through rapping over the previous versions (which usually gets them to throw more style or emphasis on the newer takes, then I would listen to one til I find a mistake and blend in one of the other layers… This makes it even easier thank you.

[@bigcooll]

Hey Joe, This is fantastic info. I had messed with this a bit but you make it look so easy...THANKS. BTW: Your vocal voice is smooth. Awesome...

[@bileshake]

Thanks for this, I'm gonna be using this alot. 😁

[@pauljrogersmusic]

JG, my fave production teacher :-)

[@b1j]

I’ll add my “voice” to say that by selecting “record in layers” on the bottom toolbar, you get all the layers and the main comp track displayed for you without any additional clicks. I’m not sure, but I think I learned that from you, Joe, a few years ago. That made it possible for me to even consider recording my work, with my limited skills as a singer and guitar player. Seems like today’s version takes more effort than that.

[@LA6507a]

In S1, I always set the recording mode to Multiple Takes before I start recording so the program automatically creates my layers as I punch in and out, whether I am loop recording or not. Also, I never bother with renaming the comp layers because I'm good with the default naming. I think S1 comping is simply fantastic and it has really helped me forget about the pain of moving on from Sonar. BTW Joe, you sound like Martin Smith, minus the accent, of course LOL!

[@alaafahmyofficial]

Do any shortcut to tuggel between different takes for selected region?

[@earledaniels4539]

I do this too. It is an effective way to loop record multiple takes.

[@ragproductions95]

Thanks mate, good stuff 👍🎶🎸🍻

[@shivajikrishna2628]

Really wonderd... Beautiful voice of you..., see somany videos of yuo. Never think you're a Singer 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😍😍😍

[@47Libra]

Damn Joe killin the vocals bruh get it!

[@bleedinsouls6073]

Hey joe another great and informative video, I have learned so much from watching ur videos since I started with studio 1 in 2019. Voice is sweet and tune reminds me of Radiohead, which is great 👍. Keep up the good work.

[@frazieryearby629]

Joe is a dope vocalist 👏 🙌🏿 super sick my guy

[@bobj6010]

First thanks for your great video and second you have a really lovely voice bro 👍👍👍

[@1loveMusic2003]

Great voice man

[@frazieryearby629]

Amazing voice 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏

[@DMV-SaxTv]

Joe ... thanks for laying this out so clearly. New to SO 6 from the dark side (PT). I've been meaning to search on this for an upcoming session this weekend. Just started my normal YT eve lessons and here it is. Also, Killer voice my guy! I was not expecting that as I'm catching up on ALL your previous how-to's. Fantastic work and I've caught an interview that explains how you started your PreSonus journey (& beyond).

[@officialnanaqwophi6887]

Need your vocal recording chain, sounds great

[@boonong3895]

amazing vocal! =)

[@petebass4959]

Dang nice tutorial and singing sounds great

[@KINGDELAFURIA]

Me gusta como cantas Joe !

[@HewlesterSAMUELII]

your voice is awesome

[@OscarSuarez402]

Muy buena voz e interpretación

[@TheTroubadour37]

I've never considered the Project page because I dont even attempt mastering my work.(I don't know how to) But your idea of using it for "Ideas" is brilliant. And I have alot of them that just get mixed into the rest on my song page. So I will give this some serious consideration to organise my stuff better in the Project Page! I have SI 4 Professional so it should work for me. Thankyou Joe!

[@chrisdavis9135]

Yo.... that sounded so good I couldn't learn sh't or stop hearing it.... dope Joe seriously, now I'm wondering why you do tutorials! 🔥🔥🔥

[@perspers2030]

Nice tut. Me i loop record and record. Some loops i even take a break and resume on the next loop. Then i erase the blank ones. I loop playback and chose. Once you choose a piece you can double click on another layer above or below and it changes that piece in realtime while loop playback. I fell in love with this workflow. Easy peasy

[@robinwatson4282]

Subscribed to this Master.

[@bennydellinger9033]

Well dang. I watch your tutorials cause there's always something to learn, regardless how long I've been doing this. But dude, I didn't realize you had a great voice....

[@PastorSteveOkeke_KKCI]

There's a button on the transport that has record takes and you can record as many layers as you want as long as you set loop and after that, you can take anyone of the layers and they automatically comp into the main track. I have been using that on S1 for a long time and it's so fast and seamless

[@carstenaltena]

I LOL'ed at 3:42

[@michaelareklett2333]

Great voice! kinda Radio Head like. Well done.

[@NeuStarProductions]

Holy… Joe! Beautiful voice. I had to Double take (pun intended) Solid bro fr!

[@Realliedoe]

This was Joe’s time to shine.😂

[@musicguy3725]

Another great lesson, Joe. Once I make a Comp track, can I make another unique one one from the same layers in order to get a double tracked vocal? This is assuming I have several good layers to comp from.

[@mickogrady9527]

Nice vocals

[@officialWWM]

You headvoice is pretty impressive!

[@SaintDaGifted]

At first I thought he was playing with us on that recording, but wow sounded phenomenal

[@AaronOwenSmith]

nice singing Joe

[@kytul]

Been using Studio One 3 since 2017 (finally about to update soon). But have never known this was an option and was this easy, always did separate tracks then comped manually. Also great voice. Lastly, a little trick that was used for Dave Grohl (I believe) who wanted to track vocals to speakers instead of with headphones. Flip the phase while recording, then after it's recorded, flip the phase again and a good portion of the speaker bleed will be gone.

[@iamthemembrane]

guy you dey sing o 😳😲😯😱 love from Naija

[@ClickRec]

As always, great video, Joe! What reverb are you using?

[@garethde-witt6433]

Nice track sir🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@Enice43]

nice joe

[@mjb7198]

Omg I so love your voice! What is that song ? I just want to hear the whole thing 🙂

[@JBauerProject]

13:21 love the Flex Joe! lol, TRUTH!

[@fazmanicg]

That voice ....... Who Knew? - Great video

[@cosmicray007]

Good stuff. I like looping over the track to be comped. Need to make sure the record-to-layer option is selected. It's faster cause you don't need to think about or name your tracks. They all fall under the track you are recording.

[@Mikey__R]

Wait, you're not singing a song whilst tapping on the mic?! So many nonchalant knowledge nuggets hidden in this video. Cheers Joe!

[@abewhere79]

tq bro.....very nice

[@jasonhuang4668]

Well singing😁

[@MortgageSmurf]

I came upon this vid by accident, and glad I did! I've been struggling to put together takes of vocals and keys, and this should make it much easier. Does it work with midi tracks as well? I don't have near enough time to record, so any time savers area big help. BTW, I've been making progress in moving through the chest voice into the head voice for several decades, and maybe in another fifty years I'll be almost as good as you!

[@ChristianMoses]

Dude, this is great. If you loop record does it work the same way (automatically creating multiple layers)?

[@chris202x_]

OK Joe, nice voice

[@StBleublanc]

Nice vocals ;) and i comp almost everythings lol

[@iamthemembrane]

'not that i need to do any tuning 🤣😂 top top guy Joe 💯

[@The62gretschgent]

Hi @joe gilder Helpful video. Great melody there in that tune. If I have 2 acoustic guitar tracks recorded simultaneously with 2 mics, can I make the same selection area in both tracks and auto-punch both simultaneously?

[@dannyconcarne972]

Finally someone who can sing

[@DavidRosario69]

I recently recorded layers and then didn't know how to comp! Thanks for the video. Also, wondering if "comp" means "composite".

[@royvdboorn]

Nice video. I've changed from Mac to Windows and therefore am leaving Logic. Torn between Studio One and actually Cakewalk. In all honesty, comping is good in Studio One but really great in Cakewalk. In Cakewalk you can simply set the recording mode to comping. It automatically creates new comp sub tracks. This way you van record in loop creating a new comp track for every loop. You can simply set sections and jump between them with the arrow keys and select the one you like. This one goes to you main track. Really fast and intuitive. Checking out some more tutorials from both DAWs before choosing

[@DwayneValentine]

Bruhhh... your vocals are 🔥🔥🔥🔥. #superdope .....S1 features are cool... but the song and singing steal the show bro. When is this song releasing?

[@yramhossoo8586]

That song is so sick..I cant get it out of my mind.

[@jammer777]

Just set “record takes to layers” which is much easier.

[@Bero70]

Great work as always!! I am trying to use my stereo guitar pedals (delay,reverb,chorus) as a "send fx" in a daw. I know about reamping,reamp boxes etc. but never came about setting up things so that they work just like plug ins in a daw. Let's say I have Strymon El Capistan delay. Is it possible to make it "sit" and wait like plug in would and receive send from all instruments if I desire so?

[@bluerockrecordsdk]

You have a surprisingly good vocal in that upper registry...!!

[@bluerockrecordsdk]

PS: Why not just call it compiling..?? It only takes like maybe 2/10th of a second to pronounce the whole word, and then we don't have to find a new abbreviation for compressing :-)
