4 Golden Rules to Mixing Hip Hop Vocals | Lu Diaz (Jay-Z, Beyoncé)

Everytime I watch one of these videos I found my own personal techniques are very similar except I can't carry out as efficiently considering I haven't had the same practice...it's crazy how much people who are really into sound have in common.

[@EdTechFreddie]

This was a great video for upcoming hip hop Engineers. I currently attend a institute for music an they are teaching me a lot but I tend to feel like most engineers are bias towards hip hop an only show you they’re steps of other genres such as rock an country. This was good info for me thanks a lot Lu Diaz an waves audio.

[@Bigricky06]

I agree with you......most of the videos focus on producing hiphop and not too much of other styles

[@diymusicbiz]

That's because most people who are instructors at school no longer work in field (very few due) and most people that do hiphop don't teach in classes, they're too busy working in the field. best way to learn is to shadow an engineer at a recording studio

[@EdTechFreddie]

Diy Music Biz I literally just got one today now that you say that lol.

[@diymusicbiz]

Word if learning how to mix is your thing. Call up a pro studio pay the studio Fee and sit with the engineer bro. You'll spend less doing it that way than going to school. People coming out of school have it very hard landing jobs as 90% of them have no real world experience tracking or mixing.. Don't be that student.. the degree means nada in this field

[@EdTechFreddie]

Diy Music Biz thanks a lot for that info.

This video just taught me everything I spent a year learning at SAE in 12 minutes. 🤦🏽‍♂️🔥

[@stringwhore]

Im in sae rn!!! Mod 3

[@brandenicole7]

How is SAE

[@Serom]

@@brandenicole7 I’m at the SAE right now (in Paris) and fully disagree with this comment. This tutorial is just a really quick coverage of just one module. The SAE will teach you about sound engineering in DEPTH. You will learn sound theory and the physics behind sound, you will learn Signal Flow and how to use consoles (there is an SSL 4000 like the one in the video in Paris’ campus), you’ll learn about electronics, learn how microphones work, learn how to properly use metrics etc. The thing with sound engineering schools is that they can’t teach the most important thing to get good at mixing, which is having a good ear and quickly spot the issues. Only practice can do that. To help you with that, the SAE has a lot of computers with Pro Tools, Ableton and Logic Pro in them so you can train on any Apple-compatible DAW. You also have access to studios with professionnal material. The school will finally provide you something that tutorials won’t : people. The SAE network is pretty huge (in France at least), and you’ll get the opportunity to meet some extremely experienced people. These people will sometimes be your teachers. I’ve never felt so professionnal and never understood sound engineering better than now, and I can tell you that my scholarship at SAE (wich started 2 months ago), played a role in that. Please remember that I’m talking about my personnal experience in PARIS. It may be different in other campuses, and this school is really made for people who want to become confirmed sound engineers. Not for people willing to have a good mix for their home made songs. Hope it helped, I would advise you to check by yourself before you do anything.

[@brandenicole7]

@@Serom very detailed been thinking about enrolling now that my work schedule will permit me to do so. Dont know if I want to pay 30k for it though lol

[@Serom]

@@brandenicole7 You should try to visit, see how the mood is in the school, talk to students, see what material is available, etc. Try to visit ! It is pretty expensive so you have to be pretty wise.

Lmao bro I’ve watched EVERY vocal mixing technique on KZbin.. Trust me when I tell you THIS IS THE ONE.💯

[@peakingmantis5331]

I don't think I've heard anyone really say this but listening to the project with just the vocals solo'd is a good way to check for any inconsistencies, it's really useful when your dealing with multiple vocal tracks with harmonies, adlibs etc and you just want to hear how everything sits together.

What matters is the end product, not how you get there. Its just a matter of preference.

[@lairdriver]

Waves are the industry standard plugins. UAD is there but in the most of the studios I have been in - Waves bundles of some sort are there. In this case though it's not the tool that matters, Lu Diaz is giving people advice on how to treat vocals first and the plugin theory second. The number one mistake people make when mixing vocals is not researching how to do it right. So yes, Waves plugins can make your vocals sound amazing - but only if you have the educational capacity to find out what you need. The plugins won't do it for you.

[@carmel-enzi]

the Wave C6 plugin is a good choice over the C4 for mixing rap vocals. Not because it has more bands, but because it seems to be more flat...

Nice promo

[@b.hornetiii.6771]

Nice ... It's basic stuff and not so challenging because the levels of the bacground music are basicaly stagnanting ... The real challenge is when you have up's and down's in levels and you want the vocals going through the mix without going too much "in our out", then you change almost everything in a setting if needed. There's no magic formula but this is nice for the begginers to see how it's done. Great video.

[@RajBeats]

Excellent tutorial. Shows you dont need much, you just need the RIGHT things done. I could barely notice some of those first changes he made. He didnt even make any EQ cuts!

[@caseymarshall1232]

Raj Beats yeah this was a great tutorial. I am in the Audio Production degree program at Full Sail University and they are preparing use how to mix and master on the go. With the right software because most of these artists don’t have the budget to lease out a major studio and keep the Engineer inside until he is finished.

[@ilikemyrealname]

Raj Beats Those “cuts” are being done by the multiband compressor. There still is “cuts” in frequency but only when said freq needs it. This way you don’t hear any cutting when it’s not necessary, possibly sucking the life out of the performance. Those first few changes that you barely noticed where some of the most important as it prepared the vocal for the busses comp (rvox). Had he shown the vocals with Rvox but without the multibands, the Rvox would have responded MUCH differently. But yeah, no EQ cutting except on the sub-lows, but I get what you’re saying. Multi band is where it’s at. *apologies if I’m stating the obvious for you..

[@JacobraRecords]

Except he was doing like 1db of compression on rvox lmao. He was sent an already mixed vocal and just barely put processing on it. That's why you didn't notice the first couple moves. For anyone with a raw recorded vocal with no processing, this mixing isn't going to get them anywhere close.

[@ilikemyrealname]

My guess is the processing you're hearing from the raw vocals is the outboard gear on the way in. What happens when you take care of all those little spikes of frequencies is you'll need significantly less compression on the buss. It's the same concept as stacking compressors so each one is only doing a little bit of work to sound more transparent. In this chain, many of these stacked compressors are just working on specific ranges. That Rvox is actually adding a lot to the vocal, even at a reduction of only several db because of how the vocal was processed leading up to it. As far as not hearing the initial moves, that just comes with time and experience. After a while, you'll be able to pick these out by ear and be in the ballpark when you go to process them. Good luck!

[@Drake5002]
