Hello Nathan, I'm having issues on the checkout page, it shows red my phone number and does not let me go to the second checkout page? Help please and thank you!

[@jaimomo65]

A trick that my mentor taught me and that I use profusely, is to compress the reverb only in mid channel using the voice itself as the side chain input. That way, while singing the voice sounds clearer in the mid channel, but without losing the feeling of reverb on sides. Sorry for my English, I hope you get the idea. 😅

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Yeah, lots of cool things you can do! Also so many ways to accomplish similar desired outcomes, too.

[@yahvecreations6024]

Can you do a full mixing and mastering episode....

[@BertyWP]

That would be so dope

[@Taker360CMA6140]

That would be so appreciated 🙏🏼

[@ankitchand1387]

This video is a gem for me. Thank you sir...❤

[@JilleneLuce]

great video! THANKS!

[@HishamKhalaf1]

Excellent tips. Thank you.

[@bluesucceed]

good tips Nathan, the one with using the de-esser is something I hadn't thought of 💙

[@nerdexproject]

Really fascinating man!

[@Huanyinguitar]

Great video! thank you

[@cgsmithinnola]

Great vid, thank you!

[@clayfrescoln]

Love your videos man! Keep it up!

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Thanks a bunch!

[@5ammy13]

I mainly work with organic, orchestral music. My trick is to use two reverbs, one for a room-studio sound, something with a short time and something that will help glue sounds and samples together. The second reverb is mainly for tail where I use a Hall reverb, and I put an eq before the reverb in the send channel where I cut off the highs and lows... It's called the Abbey Road Reverb trick. Helps makes the reverb a lot clearer.

[@JoeTheDauntless]

Thank you! I’ve been using reverb wrong this entire time.

[@GeorgeAmodei21]

I love Automation. Fun to get creative and like you mentioned, this is how it’s done. Very Good Video. Thank you , George Amodei

[@Pax30001]

Thanks for sharing!

[@KadinWhitney]

needed this!

[@OnceHeardJD]

Thank you for the tricks

[@alxissac254]

Can you do a mixing and mastering episode that includes the basic of voice and guitar volume levels? I keep on seen different info in volume level for voice. Some people say -12 and some other -18. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@AlexFedoruk-music]

Very interesting! thanks a lot

[@mystikrebel1089]

just what im just about do with my vocals and this video shows on my feed.Good timing and thanks Nathan !

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Love it when that happens

[@mystikrebel1089]

@@NathanJamesLarsen yep and im a total believer in synchronicity so definitely the timing is absolutely perfect !

[@yitzilutzky3648]

Awesome video! Maybe do a review on Silk Vocal.

[@PaulEubanks]

I like the de-esser trick. I do not like any of the other tricks, they lead to slop and smearing.

[@jamison1441]

Nothing annoys me more than when I’m all leaned in to an awesome point you’re beginning to make and it gets interrupted by a freaking KZbin ad 🤨🤮 Another amazing tutorial Nathan!

[@elimerel5899]

nice

[@Steve68858]

Hey Nathan, great helpful video. How do you get your automation reverbs to show as a separate track 3,8,9 on your example. Never seen that before. Thx

[@mrheydu]

you create tracks for your AUx channels. Then hit A to show automation

[@martinoplaya7805]

Do you have a video for harmonies or dub chorus overlays but specifically in stereo field? I'm using Doubler2 and disabling the middle channel for now, but there has to be a more advanced option

[@alwynbth1]

Will you have a mixing service in the future where I can send my music to be professionally mixed?

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Nope I don't do any client work anymore. 100% focused on my own artist projects now. Sorry!

[@AlexDMast]

Do you have a plan for when the new song you made last week comes out? Maybe you dont wanna spoil it lol

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Yes I do - it'll be a few weeks before it's out though - have a whole content plan and the next song to come out is Legends Are Not Made - but we're waiting till we have some things ready to go for the promotion plan ;)

[@amooddudestunes]
