      I just found Cakewalk recently - it's truly amazing. It has all the functionality of top DAWs and I find it to be incredibly fast and stable - just superb. Also love the console emulations, which make the mixing process very fast and intuitive.

    Man, I've been watching all of your cakewalk content...simply amazing. I've been using cakewalk since home studio 9.... I've learned more in the last month by watching your videos than I did in the past 18 years of just using the program on my own with no help. Thank you!

    As a complete newcomer to vocal recording I find your videos extremely helpful and your narrative easy to understand although it does take me sometime to absorb all the information. (80 yr old brain)

    New to Cakewalk Band Lab here myself. This man is simply THE BEST when it comes to tutorials in using this awesome software.

You are an excellent teacher.

  • @LittlestAswell
    @LittlestAswell 3 роки тому +1

    Dude this video is a game changer for how I will approach recording vocals and editing them from now on!! I've wasted so much time doing so many retakes, hurting my voice by the end of one song, doing retake after retake while listening back before continuing...bc I'm still learning cakewalk..so learning this saves time in so many ways. Plus the amount of time I'd spend splitting good takes to make one complete take is unreasonable and I get lost in the mixing part. Your tips really helped me to realize I need to set myself up for success and easier mixing later on..not to mention better time management with doing max 5 takes, setting that before I move on to harmonies, bc I have had to do too many retakes bc the harmonies weren't matching up with the lead. Seriously can't believe I've been mixing with cakewalk for a year now and just now learning about comping. lol Thank you. I love your videos!! They are so helpful to this music producing noob and this over analytical person who spends way too much time on one song bc I focus on every little detail and trying things out..but have rarely released any of my newer mixed stuff bc I'm so overwhelmed and am terrible with time management.

    Oh, brother! Um, I mean, Oh, mother! We FINALLY get to know that singers are humans like you and me, after all! Anyhow, aside from comping, which is really further down the line in processing, the most important, I think, is vocal PROCESSING. You know, reverb and stuff! In the past couple of years I've gotten into recording my vocals just for fun. I'm not a vocalist, but a mere amateur karaoke singer, to be truthful! My other job has been practicing medicine for the past 40 years in the USA! :) :) :) I got an Audient EVO 8 recently. Set it up, put my headphones on, and I sing a few lines; I can hear my voice as is. Then I slip in Sonitus reverb into the track on Cakewalk, and process my voice, play it back, and holy mother! I almost fell off my chair about the difference! I thought, I can't believe that is my voice! Well, to be truthful, I was not *that* surprised, really: I've used mixers with reverb for a few years now; in the past year, a Mackie ProFX6V3, using a JBL Eon One speaker. I sing for fun and get friends to sing during parties. God, reverb must be the biggest ego booster in the history of music!!!!! One more thing: *while* recording on Cakewalk, if I turn ECHO on in the track, I can hear my processed voice live but it is a bit disconcerting because the lag of a fraction of a second causes me to hear the processed voice as a ghost voice on top of my actual voice! So I just stay down on earth and record with Echo off! :) :) :)

    I have no idea how Cakewalk hasn't become the de factor DAW now that it's completely free, used to be $500, and Reaper costs money when you want to get rid of the nag on startup. It baffles the mind. I fully expected that to happen and it hasn't. Thanks for the tips!

    Thanks Mike. I have spent a lot of money on Cakewalk including lots of updates and upgrades all the way through Sonar, X1, X2, Producer, Platinum, and then with the demise of its last owners Gibson, until finally it is free since Bandlab took it on. The thing is I have learned more about Cakewalk since watching you than I ever did all these years. While it is true that I never asked too much from it then, ( just used it primarily to make and edit backing tracks for my act doing the Club circuit back in the day) but I am amazed with how much I never knew about how to use it properly. Im enjoying it so much more now. 😎

    Last week I learned that he would be a father. I'm stunned, I am afraid for him but overjoyed.
    Life? We learned to laugh through our tears. Now you have a new song to write Son!

    I last used comping in Cakewalk when it was Sonar and found it buggy back then so stopped using it. However with the recent updates and improvements in CbB I will definitely be using it again and your overview will help to get me back up to speed quickly. Nicely done, thanks Mike.

    Oh and thanks for the lesson if only I could get cakewalk running but your tutorials are valuable to any DAW in the recording industry

    Again a very good video on a more or less complex topic. I liked the most, that you mentioned all of the shortcuts you were using, since I like them very much. Didn't know about the whole loop-clip-arrow-keys-and-then-enter-thing, still did everything manually :D Also I liked you hinting to not being to perfect - music should be organic, and thus have some imperfections. Liked (and subbed already of course) with all my three accounts :)
    Keep up the good work,
    Love and Greetings from Germany!

    • @13Nymous
      @13Nymous 4 роки тому
