I got this; 😊🙏 In order to record a good vocal takes you need to give gifts and presents to the singer throughout the session to make the singer feels good.

[@niteshademusic5262]

her voice is so beautiful!

[@iamgerer]

Quality of this video tutorial is just off the charts ❤️

[@HW-ct1iq]

This is another level of KZbin tutorial - great work. I'm used to sketchy screencasts with people muttering over the top, but this was a piece of choreography!

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

Hi, thank you for the nice feedback! Please stay tuned. More tutorials will follow soon. In the meantime, feel free to visit our new website www.neumann.com/homestudio/en/ Have a great day!

Thank you!

so is a living room better than closet?

This depends on the desired sound and your closet. ;-) You will find more thoughts about this topic here: www.neumann.com/homestudio/en/how-to-record-acoustic-guitar-with-only-one-mic-part-1/ www.neumann.com/homestudio/en/what-are-the-acoustic-requirements-for-recording-and-mixing/ www.neumann.com/homestudio/en/how-to-improve-the-room-acoustics-in-your-home-studio/

As an audio engineer, seeing you place that expensive TLM 103 standing on that road box drives me nuts! Almost like having a can of soda on an amplifier!

Tutorials like this fuel me like crazy!!!!! GOD how I love and respect the art of recording.

[@88Doug]

Me too! There is allot to learn!

[@TomAtkinson]

Make sure there is nothing behind your microphone - I LIKE THIS advice! Very educational. And nice touch re: water bottle and headphones.

[@FTWcrashtest]

I've been tracking and producing for about as long as this video has been out and this is hands down the most helpful guide I've seen. Well done!

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

Wow! Thank you for the great feedback. Stay tuned for more tutorials in January! Happy Holidays!

[@PhilbertQAverage]

Umm... your place doesn't really look like a "home studio"

[@zonasound]

EXACTLY, PLUS I GUESS you can't use voxguard behind the mic

[@damiensmith371]

great tips all round, not just about placement and sound, but also valuable musician and client treatment practices. Thanks team!

[@ladorateurdudieuvivantadon9138]

Is it only me or there are many other who felt their heart pumping when he placed that mic on top that box ?

[@naishkiteboarder]

This must be the best tutorial concerning vocal studio recording on youtube. Same goes for the acoustic guitar recording tutorials

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

You're right, Geert Verdickt did a great job! Please stay tuned, as moore tutorials will follow soon. In the mean time, feel free to visit our new website www.neumann.com/homestudio/en/

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

[@ServantSoundProductions777]

@@GeorgNeumannGmbH hey.. do you know what song she is singing

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

Hi! Yaelle sings one of her own Songs "Pas l'Impression". Feel free to check out her KZbin channel: kzbin.info. Have a great day!

At first I thought this was just "another vocal tutorial" but this was really great! I actually learnt a lot from this.

[@geezermoon1118]

Very informative, I learned a lot. But I’d like to mention the video editing. OUTSTANDING!

I'm just halfway there and seems I've learned million things already.. great video guys! Clear like a crystal with precision!

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

Hi Joel, we're glad you find our videos helpful! Stay tuned for more in the future. Have a great weekend!

[@jazdeanutube]

great to know about positioning the mic upside down if you have lyric sheets in front of the singer. Great video.

[@NeuralRecords.]

i DONt undestand

[@drakewatkins2624]

Great channel this really helped me with my mic placement and my set up it truly does make a difference wow

[@justdandy1]

Another excellent video. I'm also transfixed by these single takes, sooo difficult. I'd love to see some out takes of the bloopers.

[@j.musickz9991]

Incredible. I've done so much vocal recording research that i was expecting to hear the same things again. I'm even enrolled in an online course from Berkeley now about vocal recording. But i watched the vid anyway and i was surprised to learn some new basic stuff!! Definitely subscribed and will watch the other episodes.

[@PrinceWesterburg]

Jeeez really? But its all schoolboy physics!

[@gyanganga6899]

Its really helpful for everybody, I appreciate your work, heads off.

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

Thanks, great to hear!

[@AFreshmanPerspective]

Really REALLY well done tutorial. Good pace to understand, good filming, good flow and organization, and good audio quality. I'll have to watch the rest of these.

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

Hi Brian, thank you very much for the nice feedback! Have fun watching the tutorials!

[@stvlush]

YES! The PHASE switch. Brilliant tip and one I haven't seen in any other tutorials. I learned this lesson quite by accident when recording an announcer I worked with regularly. One day he complained that the headphones made him sound like he had a head cold. I checked the settings and equipment. Everything was dialed in normally, the processing, the mic, the room, the cans, everything was the same, EXCEPT the phase switch had somehow gotten toggled. As the engineer, he sounded the same to me regardless of the phase, but even a half cycle can befuddle the brain when the sound returns to the vocal performer's ears. A few times (over many decades) I purposely flipped the phase and the voice talent felt it sounded better in their head, but very rarely. Perhaps they had colds at the time? Another video full of great advise. Thanks.

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

Hi Steve, thanks for your very nice feedback. We are glad to hear that our tutorials were helpful for you. Have fun and keep recording!

[@karasays01]

I love this video it was helpful. In regards to the location where this is filmed if only I had the means. Still a lesson in discerning what's useful. in regards to the water make sure its room temperature cold water isn't beneficial to the voice. It's something my music teacher taught me and I even gave that advice to another singer at a talent show.

[@jessica4885]

Love this just what I needed since iam starting a home studio

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

Hi Jessica, thanks for your nice feedback. We are glad that the tutorial is helpful for you. Have a great day.

Excellent video, I'm setting up a home studio and just purchased the TLM 103 from Sam Ash and this video helps a lot. I look forward to the following videos. New subscriber, take care.

[@RADIKALPEOPLEPERU]

Neumann y Apogee excelente combinación

[@lunechild5187]

she looked so done with him everytime he spoke 😂

[@88Doug]

Isn't her snapping while recording her vocals an issue too.. 😄

[@SpedSpedding]

Outstanding video. So crispy. 🤘🏻

[@88Doug]

In a room like that.... when you add reverb in post production, it will be adding on to the natural room reverb.

[@carlosyt2]

wow, thank you very much. i learned a lot from this video, it is real life techniques that you are teaching. thank you so much!

[@sun6moon9]

Pretty cool video, from a pretty cool brand. Thank you!

[@KuruGDI]

It's a good video with helpfull tips. What I like even more about it is the way it's made. These little (but not too many) CG elements and that the off speaker and the real video blend together that well. And both of this in a one take video.

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

Hi, thanks for your nice feedback. We are glad that you like the way it is made. Have a great day!

[@kurtcameron7562]

this was amazing. I can't wait to watch the rest of the episodes. and, thank you!

[@GeorgNeumannGmbH]

Hi Kurt, thank you very much for the feedback!

[@TaiRo]

Great video. Although I felt awkward at some points....

[@thetallestwallflower]

why

[@jorgepeterbarton]

I didnt get much further than "vocals are like, really important and stuff" just to paraphrase it

[@PrinceWesterburg]

Just remember SHE can't see what you're doing

[@gopolarisstudio]

Maybe you're awkward?

[@88Doug]

With all the great advice.. why all the snapping during recording vocals. I would have to put an end to thet fast!

[@aseembaruaole8697]

Very well presented.... great

[@HarvinderSingh-yy8th]

It is difficult to mur-2 for so long period. Very good set up. TLM 103 is very clear deep condenser microphone. It costs about Rs 100000.

Very helpful. Looking forward to watching the next one.

[@WOB1010]

Unless a room has the perfect acoustic properties you are looking for ...It should be well Deadened with absoubic foam (Cloth) as the Reverb echo etc can then be minuplated with effects. (A rock room will produce unduable Echo's and Reverbs) Tube mics get hot and the heat rises, If the mic is uprigh the capsule can expand due to the heat and distort the sound. This is the reason microphones are sometimes seen inverted.(To prevent the capsule from becoming hot.)

[@dirceupontindonascimento1049]

It is the best I have ever seen

I love this series, even when I can't even afford one of these mics :,D

[@ProjectOverseer]

Though an Ad, I like these tutorials. I own a few neumann microphones, and a good few hybrids. A very good but used U87 and TLM 103 are the most used Neumann's, but I also have other brands that offer excellent results, though different qualities within a session or mix ... Paint brushes 😉

[@Raoaudiocovers]
