This was a great video! Thank you so much for sharing these helpful tips. It's helping me create a very different feel for my vocals.

[@morrismarschik6846]

Awesome track! Thanks for the walkthrough :)

[@lastcall9998]

Amazing song. Top notch vocals and arrangement and production. It sounds current (modern) without sounding like bad over processed vocals.

[@guybolt]

Hi RKC, I'm here after watching Paul's videos (love that man) and I'm looking forward to more instructive vocal production videos. I'm working on my first proper solo album and need all the help I can get.

[@lddonovan]

Great melody in the chorus!

[@rgrgraterol]

Love the synth part that you play on each tip

[@JackParker]

So encouraging, whilst also reminding me that I do now have the tools that I need and more as a singer/producer! Seeing all the tracks, the f/x and doing some techniques already like this, but i can see some more practice and experience, and better 'story telling', in fact, I think the story telling in vocals is most definitely the best/most important piece of advice to take away :) Thank you so much Rachel!

[@artg7909]

You are wonderful. Thanks!

[@bekimachine]

Thanks Rachel for the tips! Stuff in there I never thought of doing! Also loving the new track! 😄

[@michaela9817]

[@caroserrano3331]

Love it Rachel!!!

[@michaelfireborn4392]

Thanks for this, very informative. Keep it coming. Thanks!

[@watcherdan7437]

Hello Rachel, I saw you on Paul Davids video about looping and thought I would come by and say HI. I have also seen you on Mary Spenders channel. I saw the video she shot when she gifted you with that Apple Studio set up. WOW that was awesome. I know this is an old post so you may not read it but wanted you to know I think you are very talented and I admire your talent. I recently purchased an Arturia Mini Lab MK2 which came with a limited version of Ableton Live but I havent got a clue how to use it. I have trouble just trying to figure out garageband. But it is fun trying to learn. So thanks for all you do to help us noobies out here you are a true inspiration.o

[@GuitarSongsMasters]

Here through Paul, really enjoyed your tips and watched the entire video which is rare that I do so. Amazing knowledge and thanks for sharing it - will use it for my next vids!

[@rogerdalton6728]

I thought she was speaking Dutch in the first 2 seconds

[@AdilConstantineMusic]

Super great tips, thank you Rachel!!

[@thegeenius]

Listened to the track. Bought it. Paul’s vid finished, straight to iTunes.

That Tremulator trick was fun! Great advice in this video.

[@stephenhaynes603]

Excellent indeed ! i have just tried the tremolo on a vocal in my chorus with full depth set to sync works really well . thank you Rachel your music is really good 10/10 😁

[@HenryMittnacht]

Great song and graet tips!! Thanks!

[@dougb70]

you are a pro. Thanks for sharing.

[@Mr.Gonfio]

Great video, you’re such a wonderful teacher!!! I’ve just bought Ableton 11 and i’m a total beginner... i wish i have you as a teacher for that. Thanks for sharing your tips!!

[@TheDeathBeatsOfficial]

Very usefull Rachel. I've recently started collaborating with a UK Folk duo and for whatever reason I've found that the render quality of their vocals requires me to add allot of processing and tricks in order for their vocals to sit properly in the mix. The project was starting to get a little chaotic and was running away from me if you know what I mean. What you've laid out here is great as it gives a clear plan to stick to. Cheers!

[@zazoomatt]

Gee this IS what it is all about.....SO MUCH Appreciated As I get ready for the old folks home...........in America. Thank YOU Both !

[@thomaskane9298]

Great to see and hear a Celtic Dutch collab....enjoyed it. 👍

Excellent video! ❤️

[@Percuman]

Thank you Rachel, very useful !

[@SalmonFume]

I love this colourful use of language and subtle effects thrown in there. These überdimensional perspectives would've been lost on me when I was consuming content mindlessly. It's the interesting layer of the pie that makes it ... supahsweet

[@cendakrys]

bravo tu geres grave !! bravo et merci 👏👏

[@simonhendra8100]

awesome...love this... im beginner trying to learn from your video... thank you so much for sharing this one..

[@fedefranco]

[@totoosarts]

Bless your beautiful heart, thanks a lot for sharing :)

[@jeramym9506]

It's been a year, But this track slaps. Thanks for making this video. Very inspiring.

[@Proxima04]

If this doesn’t get used for the end credits of a Hollywood movie, it would be an injustice. 👍

[@MichalJuul]

Hi Rachel I come to your youtube channel because I follow Paul David's. You've done a really good job with SUGAR COATED. It is now on my Spotify playlist. Now I also follow you on youtube. Regards Michal from Denmark

[@PhoenixPhazing]

You always have the best tips thanks RKC & your new studio decor, is very nice. -Exotic

[@jokkemartens8065]

nice track! Super chill. Now you make me want to have fabfilter..

[@timmah4476]

Another cracking vid! Paul is such a legend.. awesome collab 😎 got to get those UAD plug-ins.. it’s the final piece of the puzzle I think but just bought a house so my ability to buy new studio toys and sounds just vanished!! (But do have a studio in the loft - worth it!!) 👌🏼 keep on pushing 🙌

[@sykromsmile6303]

Great video

[@MissLouVan]

Hi Rachel, I am really enjoying your videos and absolutely love your music. You have inspired me so much as a female producer. I thank you so much for this video and I would love to see a more detailed tutorial of the plugins you use if you ever have time to go through that too. Appreciate you and love your music. L

[@GraemeMarkNI]

Songs a beast 💪

[@breevwhyman2985]

so interesting Rachel, you are very very talented. .......it amazes me where you get the motivation from when looking at the "interfaces" of these tools and screens.... ................O____o............. ? anyhow Rachel, you are very very skilled indeed......... Oh, and............it "sounds" fantastic regardless of the expense of the equipment involved. You make excellent video tutorials. There isn't anybody who can't understand these videos. Your videos do not seem to skip over any points. Also, you provide the absolute proof of "listening back" to hear what's being achieved. Very good. Rachel, the sky is the limit for a talented person such as yourself. Many respects to you , and your dedication to your craft. Remarkable. Do you enjoy other tools such as "Hit'n'mix infinity deep audio editor"?. Best wishes V.

[@ianbenoit1126]

Brilliant video. I have a Prophet Rev2 much like yours, and am overwhelmed with it's capabilities. Would you ever do a video on your workflow with that synth in particular?

[@surferisla2162]

I am very happy for you music

[@arnoldtvisagie]

Came here from Paul's channel 💥💥

[@chrisgreenwood8451]

Great video and cool song. Saw you on Mary's 24 hour live and it's clear after this that I need to subscribe. I was wondering if you could share what monitors you are using on the desk there. Always looking for possible gear upgrades. Thanks and be well.

[@johnhendricks8140]

Paul David and you make a great duo, Mary Spender is cool too.

[@DMarlow83]

This is really great info, really impressed with your knowledge and layering of EQ and compressors, as I work with many female vocalists it's great to see some tips from someone intimately familiar with them! I love the SoundToys stuff as well it's all great, EchoBoy Jr. junkie myself. If you want to try something mental, they use a lot of CPU, check out Acutica Audio, I have UAD as well but since I've been using AA, it's been much less, mostly for amp modeling and Reverbs.

[@DMarlow83]

Also check out Artuira 1176, I dig it more than the UAD variants and it's side chain and filter options are something I'm getting extra milage out of.

[@MiCtiSilen]

Very nice studio and woman Rachel K. GOOD LUCK great musician

[@LesVegasMusic]

You're like my favorite person. ✌🏼❤️

[@questionmarq]

Wicked stuff ,cheers for sharing your knowledge

[@draztiqmeshaz6226]

*casual Q3 and Soothe 2 flex Haha, I'm playing. Those are the dank tho. I always watch your videos in between my monitors. Thanks for sharing what you've learned.

[@peakymike4061]

Cool vibes! Great free alternative for Fabfilter Pro Q3 is TDR Nova. Limited to 4 bands, but does the job perfectly!

[@BrianAz]

Amazing work Rachel! This song, and all you have done, is an example of artistry, talent, and technology that early recording artist could only dream of having at their fingertips. I love the process and the end result is beautiful. Closing my eyes and hearing the entire song to enjoy all the nuances and work you put into this gorgeous song! Thank you for sharing it all with us.

[@prijackcastro]

Muito bom! ♥

[@lewisgoody]

So jealous of your studio. It looks amazing! Thanks for the tips!

[@benjaminkaarst]

Paul Davids is the best!

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

He is xxx

[@AishawithanEye]

You're an excellent teacher! Thank you so much for the tutorial! I have a question: with all these plugins (that look expensive!), how do you share Ableton files back and forth with Paul? Does he have all the same plugins so it's not a problem? When I've downloaded others' Ableton files they more often than not use plugins I don't have. :(
