"Yes Sir"- Chief Keef Vocal Mixing w/ Neek

[@ALIMU]

This man said if you don't like how the vocal mix sounds don't watch, IT LITERALLY SOUNDS PERFECT 🔥🔥🔥🔥 HARDDD

[@Jamusictv]

You are not lying. Those vocals sound extremely clear and upfront. Good shit my dude.

[@trust1hunna]

Facts!

[@THEKITPLUG]

The legend is back...

[@sndsrc]

This was the song that stood out to me 1st time I listened to this project - everybody involved smacked this. Thank you for sharing

[@camchordsyt]

You wrecked that album fr ! I stopped listening to keef for a while and came back on this album he def brought me back and your mixes helped homie 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯

[@ALIMU]

YESSS FINALLY WE NEED MORE OF THESEEEEEEEEE

[@dylmadeit8705]

Please keep doing these. Videos like these are not common and Chief keef is one of my favorite artists this is so RARE

[@Eleven_11]

Neek the goat 🔥this whole album was fire but Yes Sir honestly probably my favorite

[@traveler8414]

I was watching your old vids recently and was craving for a new one. Lets goo. Thanks

[@Daniel_23223]

i was dying when he pulled up his Pro Q3 and said "I kinda just went against what I said" 😂

[@mirthe_machine]

I really like this approach. It seems like instead of using EQ to add clarity at the end, you give yourself a very rich and present vocal at the start of the chain and then reduce the irritable frequencies and midrange to keep the high frequency presence. Seeing soothe and everything else after the "make the mic sound good" part of your chain re-enforces the effect. Seems like you get a more precise dynamic signal to feed into your compression and de-ess chain as well. I wouldn't have thought to do it inversely like that either. Having that high end info and manipulating the sound into the mix with just a bit of clean-up was great to see. As others have said, the vocals are super present, and I think a lot of that is lent to having this kind of nuanced control over the high-end and sibilant dynamics. Super sick vid.

[@neek8306]

wow what a lovely description haha. Appreciate the love g

[@joshmitchell7174]

super helpful bro one of the best mix videos ive seen

[@zacharylowman4034]

Waves abbey road tg Mastering chain greatest mastering plugin ever made. Only $40 bucks. Much love for these videos neek, fellow morgantown engineer here your a hero to us.

[@NovaChance888]

nah this is amazing, you should be dropping more consistently gang

[@hartwell284]

Been doing this myself for years and years and you actually helped me learn some new stuff. 1. That I’m doing too much and 2. That you can do more with the EQ dips and it will sound really good. Also gonna try the clip on the master. Thanks!!!

[@ElyWaves.]

was just wondering when you'd post another vid, lets gooo

[@b.o.n.a]

Dope 💥💥 Brazil 🚀🚀

[@stigsofficial]

This is 💎💎 man def need more of this would like to a mic chain video for sure. Fw this album heavy too insane we get to watch the breakdown thanks for this brotha

[@abbas1ne]

Welcome back

[@PreFusah]

you werent lying on the clarity JEEZ im just getting into vocal mixing this sounds tight AF

[@maxdaprodigy914]

Mixing vocals is like science and gets addicting as you keep getting better 💯. Vocal cleanup is key and enables u to add extra sauce without having any bad frequencies.

[@MIXEDBYSPAZZ]

wish i remembered what you said about switching to m1 now that im watching this video again , almost dropped a tear about my plug ins

[@NVRLOSTT]

You should do a Vocal chain plug-in order video or a How you would mix bedroom vocals but from like a up and coming artist, who dosent have a actual studio / all the expensive gear to record!

[@iamstilltruth]

this guy is brilliant, subbed

[@miahdona8161]

Favorite song off the album!

[@ALIMU]

Could you please make a video on how vocals are typically recorded, Example, do artists like laroi record with compresson on while tracking? And what compressor settings are used when tracking. That would be really helpfull to learn! Thank you!

[@JiiNxMusic]

Usually people would use a cl1b compressor during tracking with doing anywhere from like 3-5 db of gain reduction. Usually a fast or medium fast attack and a medium or medium fast release. It may change depending on the artist and how dynamic their performance will be.

[@noname-ng6sj]

@@JiiNxMusic This is super false info, stop posting. I fucking love the cl1b and you're wrong. Wouldn't ever print it like this. You record with a good preamp and make the vocal hot.

[@JiiNxMusic]

@@noname-ng6sj the cl1b isn’t a faster reacting compressor compared to say an 1176. So even with the release being fast-medium it’s not going to saturate the signal too much with those settings. And the levels will come in HOT if you don’t adjust the input/output gain correctly. Thank you

[@SuitYourselfT]

@@noname-ng6sj what r hot vocals

[@maserati4285]

Neve 1073 + Distressor all you will ever need bruh

[@SamiDaComposer]

Ever since I’ve watch this video bro I tried your mixing method of how u just try to subtract eq the vocals while trying to go for a natural sound it helped me out with my vocals because I would make a mistake and do to much and I like how u explain not doing to much and trying to go for a natural sound (same method young thug engineer and Kendrick does) this video literally help my song out thanks bro

[@shonmartin61]

yeah I loved this album, had a talk with one of my none musicians friends and I had the same view of the vocal clarity you achieved on this project. Very good shit, man, all the songs had that early chief keef signature grit to them. Please do more chief keef mixing videos 💯

[@only1smoosh]

We need that reverb sauce. Much love mane

[@SOUTHSIDEMIKO]

On god 😂

[@wowwow133755]

thnak ya a lot for this lessons!

[@TheSprinkler]

Yes sir

[@ElyWaves.]

Plugin order would be great. Gain staging stems? Assuming you prolly don't have to since all the stems you get are from high quality artists and producers. Lastly, you mentioned a long time ago you'd go in depth on reverb timing, would still love that. Best mixing vids out here fr. Appreciate you

[@syphfrr9631]

2:17 Fruity Limiter Compression 3:21 Eq and Compression 4:46 2nd Eq 6:32 (JST BOOST LOW END) 7:29 Deesser 8:05 (USE IAYE REVERB AND DELAY) 11:05 Limiter

[@Merlins]

Need an Almighty So 2 breakdown !

[@FraIey]

You've done a video on a firend of yours, Lil Skies and now Chief Keef, can we get one of The Kid Laroi? His background harmonies have always caught my ear and I know you work with him a bit, so would be a cool video on how you achieve a lot of those sounds.

[@trippyz96fr]

Yeeeeee I was waiting

[@OkayKeith]

Can you do a video on how you get the vocals to sit in the mix and not be either: A) louder than the beat or B) drowned out by the beat.

[@nicholasmarch3286]

volume automation

I always like seeing another producers process. I make my beats record and mix all my own projects and never use s reference track. Thats just my process and getting new monitors from jbl. To Yamaha hs7

[@forte2684]

Amazing content 🤘🏼

[@peezyy3]

Check out Newfangled Audio's Saturate Plugin. It's a great clipper for high-frequency detail preservation.

[@nicolosirottiYT]
