  • In this tutorial I go over how to mix hip hop vocals in Cakewalk by Bandlab. This is a continuation of my how to record hip hop vocals in Cakewalk. In this video you will see how I use the stock plugins to mix the lead vocals of the track and how to make busses and create your own vocal chain. Let me know if you any questions about the process below in the comments. Cakewalk is a FREE DAW. Yes you read correctly FREE! This a complete DAW that use to be a paid software. It comes with effects, plugins, mastering tools, instruments and everything need to create music. I decided to try and start making beats in Cakewalk to see what it can do and so far so good. Definitely check it out.

    For some reason I don't have the vocal strip in my plug ins. How did you get it? I searched the plug in online and it seems like they had removed it from Sonar in the past. But since you still have it in Cakewalk it must be possible to get it, right?

    • @XELOhh1

      Yes you can still get it.. Its kinda hidden.. And im not sure why.. Go to manage plugs..it in the browser tab .. Select vsts and at the bottom of that popup screen choose show hidden vst.. And they should be there just check them off and you sould have them on your list now.. Hope this helps..😄🙏

I’ve turned all of my effects/other tracks off but there’s still no sound being removed…even when ‘Listen’ is on for the DEESSER it just plays my vocal track and not what sounds are being removed ?? Please help bro

    • @XELOhh1
      @XELOhh1  3 роки тому +1

      You are not really going to hear that much being taken away the desser is just for the highs and hisses in the vocals.. you should be able to hit the listen switch to hear what is being taken out of the vocals but it shouldn't be that much... You can move the filter around to get more of it but it's not going to take alot away from the original vocal .. I hope this helps..😀🙏🏾
