[@lexghozt]

Wavy has the clearest mixes I've heard yet

[@mrvron]

Starts with the recording of the song

[@SkyZzardDaWizarD]

Bro i seriously want to thank you, everyone always complements my mixes. I bought one of your templates and it does not disappoint. i was super impressed. You are the man.

[@doperealityvisions9502]

Which one did you get bro?

[@SkyZzardDaWizarD]

@@doperealityvisions9502Rnb Template waves bundle plugins

[@RookieMistakeYT]

The Decapitator plug definitely has some great and interesting uses. A plug-in I rarely see engineers mention is Waves NS-1. It’s a diamond in the rough. I’ll get stems from when an artist has recorded on the road and the acoustics are bad or they use one of those “Iso Shields” around the mic but the preamp is cranked and they’re using a TLM-103 where I can hear every move in the room. Otherwise for the ones that know: Antares Auto-Tune EFX, FabFilter Pro-DS, Pro-Q2, Volcano, Pro-MB & Timeless 2, Waves Vocal Rider, Reel ADT, H-Delay & Doubler, UAD API 560, 1176, RVox, SoundToys Little Radiator, Decapitator & MicroShift, Audio Ease Altiverb or Valhalla🤘🏼🤙🏼

[@saviwaves5337]

i saw a lot of industry go-to's but that Massey plugin is some secret sauce.

[@yrusboaisocorpebsnd5968]

[@trippinnick]

WOW THANK YOU

[@TheTonyTitan]

Gonna try this out bro, bet

[@clayb.studios2524]

I love your videos and watch every video. You have made me a better engineer so thank you. I have a video request. I've seen you use tons of different brands of plugins and mixing styles but I've never seen you use Slate Digital or review them? Id love to see you reviewing their products and building a mix using their VMR because I think they are cutting edge and affordable and could be a great tool in every engineers arsenal.

[@hiphop3sree3]

Can't wait to see how you route all your sendsto your summing box and how you route the summing box back through flock audio

[@darrenmorris8685]

And sis Lydia always come correct 🤘🔥👌

[@EverythingLydia]

Thank you!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@carlo-andrescarter3569]

The song is 🔥🔥🔥 too

[@3THEGOON]

It's krazy because I was just noticing in my new mixes how the saturation I been using with the studder tape and the omni channel made my mix sound big. Then I come across this...we on the same wave

[@izkray]

Secret sauce! 🔥

[@waynewav]

💯💯

[@PharaohLawLess1]

I parallel process too

[@dantemontanuh9977]

[@trentgthegoat5496]

I be using the waves aphex vintage on a send with that roddy rich template on my personal vocals and that shyt be pressure #my secret

[@FinesseTheProducer]

What Roddy Ricch template?

[@trentgthegoat5496]

@@FinesseTheProducer Wavywayne got them on his site for the LOW. No cap im an artist and record myself thats the best things i could of ever did i started mixing last year and with the templates i got from him people cant even tell i REC myself. Its worth grabbing one if you got your own gear and just started mixing. I dont get nothing for this comment fam #Just being honest its worth it

[@taironedivine]

[@SimplyJustice1177]

Awesome video man. You on the west coast? May be interested in hiring you at some point.

[@creativegeenyus1819]

This was dope Wayne. I was surprised you went back to this track, you Lydia did work on this project. So is the secret adding different busses or auxiliary sends to the original signal and putting them all including the original signal on mono? Appreciate the insights my brotha.

[@kedontikereyle8436]

Wayne?

[@Patientbetters2]

What uppppp wayyyy vvvvvv lmao ayo my last song i wanna know how i did with the steps i learned from you thanks wavy wayne be dope

[@colemanchisem9026]

Wavy should do a mix challenge

[@rigo365]

[@HighStarOficial]

Everything you need to know, holla at ya boy Wavy. 💯💯💯 P.S - Just bought myself that Pre-Sonus FADERPORT 16, if you can do a mini-tutorial with that one ☝️ on pro-tools 🦍✅ OneLove !!! 🙏🏻

[@markmendozamusic]

[@ISLANDVISUALS309]

I would recommend buying a template nothing but 🔥

[@SkyZzardDaWizarD]

Agree!!

[@MykelV]

I’m so happy they didn’t deleted my boys KZbin !!!

[@EverblessJ]

I like the vibz 😎👍

[@gsmith31329]

Do the presets work on pro tools first or only full version or 9

[@kcjohnson4178]

[@anthonythompson4104]

Be Dope!

[@villainstyletone6466]

That mane wayne been going in in mane (Memphis)

[@ProdbyTrehnt]

Bro thx but what’s your opinion I use Logic Pro x and this is my parallel chain: 1. My vocal with printed processing 2. I have my parallel going out on a bus thru Fabfilter Saturn, then I squash it with a CLA 76 , top off with eq Did I need to do any extra steps? Also I noticed you controlled your parallel through your volume fader instead of gain, is that recommended??

[@timuryesa]

love this song !!! What mic was used for this song brother?

[@EverythingLydia]

Thank you!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@kingdari3922]

Is this Logic friendly?? That’s the main DAW I use

[@TouchofClassCustoms]

Wat up Wavy I got a Mac and a Axiom 25 and I have a Korg pad Controller and I haven’t upgraded my interface, still have USB from Studio One, but have upgraded to 5.3, how can I connect my Korg pad controller to my system I only have 2 usb inputs and on my Mac but I have the midi inputs on my interface, can u explain how to route the cables,

[@tobiaslofi]

What a UK sounding track! Some Drum&Bass / Garage without the aggressive bass to make it more pop or something ... nice nonetheless ;)

[@EverythingLydia]

So dope you noticed this! It’s def a UK producer 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@tobiaslofi]

@@EverythingLydia Thanks, I'm German and was a kid in the 90s/00s so this reminds me of UK music from that time. Which is great :)

[@gritHouseStudios]

Why are the Kali monitors upside down?

[@eliwise5330]

How should I mix if the client only sends one singular .wav file and no stems...

[@Ahowe61993]

When you gonna make a wavy chair?

[@votoking674]

Thanks bro for the tips. I’m new to protools as I’ve always used reason but the DSP issues means I use reason to make beats and protools to mix it. Can you let me know how I can make the pan knobs on protools show. Plus why everytime I upload any drums protools put it into stereo. Is there a way around this? I’m having to split into mono and delete the stereo one but the pan knows disappear immediately. I’m trying to pan some of the drums slightly left and right but can’t. Can you help?

[@Dstackz718]

The signal is still mono. It just came in on a stereo input. Don't delete it

[@simplyputviewstv5655]

teach teacher!

[@jermainstarks7061]

DOES ANY OF YOUR TEMPLATES WORK ON NUENDO

[@lexghozt]

Saucy

[@lightningzeusradio]

Hey wavy did you directly route those parallels to vocals itself or to the vocal buss?

[@sailorbaby9460]

Vocal bus for sure✔️

[@a.efetti295]

How do I contact you was tryna get some info about like a custom template

[@kingech_B15]

Big ball of vocals lolzzz

You should make a J.I. Prince Of NY template!! And great content‼️‼️

[@jairusanderson1792]

my nigga

[@PrymeRubix]

Maxing out digital quality is a bitch cuz you realize you need analog hardware to get those minute differences !

[@dakingotheworld]

How does it sound so clear no matter how many times you stack the vocals. You must have great isolation. By the time I stack it two or three times everything begins to sound to fat and thick

[@joeyardiri5047]
