Great video. I like getting my vocals as best as I can with my vocals chain then add NYC parallel compression with high end and your low pitch down trick for body. Good stuff Warren!
I hated multiband compressor on vocal before, but now I have really good results with it by "riding" low mids using moderate attack, slow release. I also boost the highs with it and set the HF band to act like a custom deesser. I'm trying to avoid setting cuttof points from 800hz to like 4000hz because they tend to sound unnatural in this area. Thanks for video Warren!
I also do limiter -> compressor -> eq -> compressor -> eq -> compressor -> multiband -> Parallel compression. I always watch Marc episodes cause sometimes you catch is what you've never thought before. And a very nice presentation. Very polite
@Produce Like A Pro Warren any chance of a video discussing differences in production of male and female vocals? Do you treat them differently? If so could you maybe discuss it during FAQ Friday, please?
Every mixing engineer have their own way of giving life to vocals, for many mixers that wanna have a bright vocal that sits on top of the track Marc's way of mixing was beautiful and we can use some his techniques 👌🏻 Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Here's how you do the same chain with free plugins: - FabFilter Pro Q3: TDR Nova - Klanghelm MUC: Analog Obsession Varimoon or Klanghelm Muc Jr - Waves MV2 - Sonic Anomally's VOLA2 - Waves Multiband: Cockos ReaXComp - Soundtoys Echoboy: Valhalla FreqEcho, Valhalla SuperMassive, Stone Voices Ambient Reverb, Sonic Anomally's Leet Delay, GSi Varispeed...Depends on the type of delay wanted. - De-Essers: Either use another multiband compressor or something like SleepyTime DSP Lisp or Airwindows DeBess - Soundtoys Decapitator: Depends on the type of saturation you want. Analog Obsession's PreBox, SGA1155 and so on. - SoftTube Tube Tech Classic Channel Strip: Analog Obsession's Rare SE + I'd say Analog Obsession's Kolin - Acustica Audio El Rey: Don't believe there's any free RCA AVC compressor emulations on the market.

Always like Marcs relaxed and clear delivery. The song is great and he clearly explains how he approaches everything in less than 10 minutes. #Respect. Thanks to Produce Like A Pro for this outstanding content.
I’ve seen a lot of Vocal Chains over the Internet but this probably the best video. Video is cleanly put, the chain is well explained and tells how different this chain is different from other chains. Put this guy on the channel more.
I love Marc ability to explain what he does. And how to interact with each plugin to make a difference. I've learn so much from his videos. Keep it going man. Sounds beautiful.
Sounds like the vocal was tracked pretty amazing in the first place. Would love to see an episode on tracking including mic choice and the use of outboard vs itb processing. The vocals in this video have a presence not too many engineers seem to nail. It's that balanced thick forward vocal sound engineers like Serban Ghenea are famous for. Another great episode from Marc. He's definitely one of my favorite guest presenters on this channel!
@@BobbyLouxMusic will never happen bro. All these UA-cam channels have vocals that are already processed very well. Then they add some plugins on them and do a few moves and be like “that’s all I did!” There’s not 1 channel where a big time channel shows the the tracking and processing from beginning to end. Not 1.
I like it! Simple, lean, and open. I like workflows where you can assess each step instead of a “magical black box” solution. Tks and please keep simple good capsules like this coming!
I’ve watched a lot of tutorials .. but with you i see more details . It’s like a new mixing class . In depth with more elaborations .. thank you very much .. love from Africa 🇹🇿..
This was a fantastic reminder of how layering compressors can achieve smooth in front vocals. Gonna try something similiar right away! And I'm gonna have a marvelous time doing so! ;)
Marc has a great demeanor and even more importantly gets right into giving useful information. Another point I’d like to make is it’s like Christmas all year long with Warren and everyone at Produce Like a Pro. Thank you
used wave's equivalent pis for marc's chain and the vocal sits in its spot, doesn't move, doesn;t fade or surge, stays on point...perfect. now on to the verbs...thank you so much marc. i put a L1 first with barely any limiting and the rest fell into place. yippity do daw day
Sounds great! I appreciate a pop vocal that hasn’t been destroyed with compression. I thought Mark did a tasteful job molding this vocal. Using multiple compressors on a single track is still a little over my head as an engineer. This video was helpful.
Super helpful video, thanks Marc and PLAP. Didn't notice the sleeping hound until right at the end. I actually like having my animals in the room with me despite the inherent hair and fluff problems they can create.
First of all, what a beautiful song! This is a great video thanks for sharing this! I love the clean yet upfront treatment he has here, it really brings out the beauty of her vocal. While I havn't looked at his master buss, Its wonderful how well he has achieved depth, verb and all sorts of clarity without "hyper" compressing. Im a fan!
First off, I do like the mix and vocal especially - Better yet, Marc Nelson is a great explainer and I learned a lot. I would have been happy with another 30 minutes on just this one track. Thanks Marc! A+
Amazing video. I really enjoy Marc’s videos - I like how he explains why he makes certain decisions and then let’s you hear the different elements at work. I’ve learned a lot from all the videos of Marc you’ve shared. Cheers. This was a really good one.
I track with an AKG The Tube (414 with a tube), usually, if it works for the voice. Into a Gains MP2 (discrete transformer balanced pre) and a Tube Tech CL1A and hit it hard. The Tube Tech CL1A can squash the crap out of anything and you only hear a beautiful sound coming out, never any audible side effects. The CL1A is amazing. I rarely compress during the mix if it was tracked with the CL1A. I used to have a Tube Tech MP1A mic pre at my previous studio with a former partner. It was hands down the best piece of gear I've ever used. Everything that went through it sounded great and sat in the mix with no effort. I'm only doing music on the side now but still want a Tube Tech pre, it's god like.
Nice! I was recommended MV2 in the academy only yesterday. When I demo'ed immediately knew it will be great on vocals. Today I've been going back through my mixes and inserting it on all of them along with CLA Epic and Puigchild. You're costing me money Warren 😂 Only kidding. Well worth it. Another great video by Marc!
Having a great vocalist and having the vibe for a killer take, then Add salt and pepper before serving ;-) cool video and superb presentation .. thank you more of these please Warren
@@marcdanielnelson317 COVID has enabled me to have my dog "work" with me, too. Nice tutorial. I'm a big fan of the MV2 as well. I'm a postproduction audio guy but your vocal chain approach is useful for me, especially the implementation of serial compression.
Thanks Marc for another great video, and Warren for bringing it to us. I love the focus on subtleties that really make the whole work, as opposed to the brute force "hammer" techniques that see every problem as a nail to be smashed. Kudos and salutations, fellas!
hi, and thanks Marc for sharing your time and knowledge, really appreciate. kind of a nerdy question here: when shaping the sound do you still always grab the Air EQ first, and the Fabfilter is for more precise notching job afterwards and possible band comp.. ? The Air EQ wouldn't do the 1k dip good? or the Fabfilter wouldn't do the shaping good in 'Natural phase' you think? for the Tube tech comp, since you're also a user of the Titanium, what's your call on those 2? when do you think it's better to use 1 over the other? (or is it because of CPU use here..?). thanks for your time.
i would love to hear the dry take on this prior to all processing including volume leveling just to mentally calibrate expectations with the tracks that i usually receive.
For some reason, I have a feeling that if your suggestion was the case, he would explain how the sound changes instead of just demonstrating, defeating the purpose.
I noticed you keep your FF Pro Q3 in "zero latency" I have found trying the other settings can make a massive difference from track to track. the down side is it has slowed down my system considerably. would you advise going back to "zero latency" on individual tracks? I've found on my master buss "linear phase medium" works best 90% of the time. Great video!
MV2 inside the serial compression on vocals -- wow, never tried that with MV2. And I like the dynamic EQ use at 1k (been starting to shift to dynamic eq more and more). Thanks Marc for clear explanations on how much each plugin was working. I am curious which matters more...which plugins you use here vs. the order you place them? Do you A/B the order while you mix or do you just have your chain that works? Do you switch up the order on different material?
Hey Marc, I really enjoy how you share your tips, templates and FX Chains with us, learned a lot already! ✌ Will try this or similar chain on the next vocal track! I got one question out of curiosity: Regarding the Dynamic EQ between 1 - 2K, did you listened it out or did you found it by sweep through the vocal track? Thanks in advance!!!
I usually add the waves vocal rider before I add any eq or compression. To make it easier on the compressors. Are there any issues always vocal riding first?
hi Marc, great video thank you. interested to see that you put a delay inline in the middle of that chain. what type of delay are you using there and what's the thinking of putting that inline there as opposed to sends? to have it more 'baked in'? re the whole chain, I've used a very similar chain and approach for some time as well, with a couple different units interchanged versus yours, doing the same jobs: Harrison ava deesser in place of waves, an 1176 (current favourite arturia or slate blue) in place of the mjuc, and softube 100a in place of the tubetech compressor. that final compressor often fuse labs 373 these days.
Don't forget it's on a stereo lead vox buss, it's kinda like mixing into master buss fx, it has it's uses and can be very effective like this. I'm guessing he's done it like this because he likes the effect it gives doing it this way. Similar to compressing after a reverb, which i sometimes do on my returns. And delays for that matter, especially when you want a small amount of feedback but you want the levels of the delays to not tail off in volume so much. Cheers! :-)
What are your favorite vocal mixing tricks?

Super speed Don
Agreed! Thanks ever so much Don!
Here's how you do the same chain with free plugins:
- FabFilter Pro Q3: TDR Nova
- Klanghelm MUC: Analog Obsession Varimoon or Klanghelm Muc Jr
- Waves MV2 - Sonic Anomally's VOLA2
- Waves Multiband: Cockos ReaXComp
- Soundtoys Echoboy: Valhalla FreqEcho, Valhalla SuperMassive, Stone Voices Ambient Reverb, Sonic Anomally's Leet Delay, GSi Varispeed...Depends on the type of delay wanted.
- De-Essers: Either use another multiband compressor or something like SleepyTime DSP Lisp or Airwindows DeBess
- Soundtoys Decapitator: Depends on the type of saturation you want. Analog Obsession's PreBox, SGA1155 and so on.
- SoftTube Tube Tech Classic Channel Strip: Analog Obsession's Rare SE + I'd say Analog Obsession's Kolin
- Acustica Audio El Rey: Don't believe there's any free RCA AVC compressor emulations on the market.
You could even make the same chain with stock plug-ins. It depends what you are after :)

hi Marc, great video thank you. interested to see that you put a delay inline in the middle of that chain. what type of delay are you using there and what's the thinking of putting that inline there as opposed to sends? to have it more 'baked in'?
re the whole chain, I've used a very similar chain and approach for some time as well, with a couple different units interchanged versus yours, doing the same jobs: Harrison ava deesser in place of waves, an 1176 (current favourite arturia or slate blue) in place of the mjuc, and softube 100a in place of the tubetech compressor. that final compressor often fuse labs 373 these days.
Don't forget it's on a stereo lead vox buss, it's kinda like mixing into master buss fx, it has it's uses and can be very effective like this. I'm guessing he's done it like this because he likes the effect it gives doing it this way. Similar to compressing after a reverb, which i sometimes do on my returns. And delays for that matter, especially when you want a small amount of feedback but you want the levels of the delays to not tail off in volume so much. Cheers! :-)
Yeah; it sounds different than using a buss. Clamp more with the chain.. and pumps a bit. Try it 🤙🏻
@@marcdanielnelson317 will do. are you using like a slap there? or something longer? this is on a mono vocal track or is the channel stereo there?
Wow, lead voc send to AUX loaded with bunch of plugins, pretty good result
Just a small move of each plugin. Small moves go a long way. I found I’m missing this part, :):)
Hell of a chain here
It seems you set up your efx up 1st b4 going in to process vocals ? Does that help you in placing things? Your efx always sound so lush
