#vocals #mixing #musicproduction
ive been making music for 9 years,ive never seen a youtuber that teaches music production clearly as you,most of the things you show us are things ive never seen in any other youtubers tutorials,im giving you your flowers and thanks for everything,ive improved a lot after watching your vids
Facts... Homie is phenomenal ✊🏾👍🏾
You might check out a music school where you walk in the door and sit there with other students who are asking questions. Try not to limit your learning, Eliyann.
@@jedgould5531 And for those that can't afford that?
@@jedgould5531 Yeah, not to crap on your progress but these are extraordinarily basic techniques that you should pickup within 6 months of working with vocals. Otherwise, you're obviously not learning and are probably just creating in a vacuum and patting yourself on the back.
🙌🙌🙌 You're very welcome, and thanks for the kind words of support!
Your joy while making music and teaching is super contagious and inspiring
Thank you, Pavel, I thoroughly enjoy making these and sharing my knowledge 🙂
I admit. I'm not really into EDM, but... This video is absolutely fantastic. I've learned a lot, and the time taken to piece together and edit this video must have been enormous.... Tremendous content!
You're welcome...Thanks for watching and supporting!
I agree Gordon. The number of channels that I've instantly subscribed-to can probably be counted on my thumbs quite frankly, so the fact that he got a subscription out of me before the vid had even finished is huge.
Thanks for subscribing! I'm grateful for the support and I'm excited to continue bringing you more music production content. 🙂
these are nuts mate! awesome video once again
Awesome! Really glad you enjoyed it, man :)
Nkce
It takes hours learning well done
I think this guy's tutorials hit on a different level because lots of DAW tutorials use some random garbage as music examples. I even took a whole course on Ableton that had only mmm "mock" music. Here you instantly see the value of each trick because every track is a real piece of music. Good work!
...this is pretty garbage music too.. lol
@@morbidmanmusic TBF "Derivative" rather than garbage.
I have to admit, I stupidly avoided your tutorials because I figured they wouldn't be relevant to me as I'm more of a pop-rock [amateur] producer. Your tutorials on creative effects and compositional strategies have been the most helpful out of the hundreds of other videos I've watched. Your teaching style is both concise and fun, and I can tell you truly enjoy what you do. Thank you for making these.
Yes, sometimes I think I shot myself in the foot by naming my channel EDM Tips! The techniques I teach can be applied to pretty much any genre, proven by my students time and time again :)
Anyway, thank you for watching and kind words of support, I really appreciate it!
What if I record and you do me the mastering and mixing
I thought I made this up and didn’t know people mixed like this with doubling the vocals. I must have potential.
You were born to do this. I appreciate your natural enthusiasm and your experience comes through effortlessly. Great work! Excellent video.
Thank you so much! I appreciate those kind words :)
Your videos just get better and better Will. Eductional, Entertaining, and full of Energy. Love those YES moments when producing, enjoying the process, thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much! It's a lot of work so I really appreciate the kind words and support :)
I love the way he's explaining his steps. Such a cool guy.
Thank you, Mustafa, I am glad you like my videos! :)
This was a fantastic tutorial. I love how simple you made the vocal stacking with just built-in tools that are found in almost any DAW.
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching and for the kind words of support 🙂
I think the vocal instrument part was my favorite! I've always loved how cool vocal chops sounded but I kinda struggled on making my own, but your guide on how to do it really helped!
Good stuff, I am glad you found this helpful! 🙌🏻
First time watching your videos and I gotta say I love how excited you are to share this knowledge. Many other UA-camrs just provide the info but you seem to really being enjoying yourself while doing this! Subscribed and looking forward to watching more!!
Thank you for the sub and kind words of support, really appreciate it! 🙂🙌🏻
Brilliant! Thank u for breaking down how they get that “big” sound and showing us! Kesha’s song “only love can save us now” has an amazing example of layered vocals. They actually recorded a gospel choir for backing vocals, but it also sits sooo well in the song. Not saying that to spam or promote, but rather saying that to show a relevant example and inspiration for big vocals
I love your energy man... props to you
Keep it up, you're awesome and inspiring!
I can't say I've ever wanted to get into the production side of music, but the algorithm served this video up to me and you had me hooked the whole way through.
Great video!
I love the happy you are after showing the part blending perfectly in the mix. Never trust anyone in a studio who doesn't dance at work! Superb content!
Thank you so much, I am glad you liked it! I certainly did enjoy making this one 🙂
pretty amazing tutorial and your enthusiasm about those tutorials and music you are working on is also a joy to watch. Keep it real!!
Cheers! Thanks for watching and for the kind words of support 🙂
Your enthusiasm and enjoyment of the music is so infectious, I love it.
You my good sir are amazing. I’ve been enthralled with your Ableton tutorials. You explain so efficiently in a way that’s easy to understand. Thank you!
You're welcome, glad you found this helpful! 🙌🏻
Thanks for watching and supporting the channel :)
It’s so helpful that you use so many stock Ableton functions in your videos 🙏🙏
I am glad you found it useful! I try to cover both :)
I love how you obviously love doing this. Especially after you have put all of the tips into the finished product and the smile as you start moving to the final bit. It makes the video fun to watch-as I have no idea about most of what you talk about, most of the time! I understand some of it but it gets me dancing. Ooh I love me some Prodigy too! 90's and 2000's are my teen/young adult years, so was very into house and 90's R n B.
Absolutely love this video! Can't wait to get home and try these techniques. The tools today are amazing. I started on a patch cord modular synthesizer and spliced reel to reel tape for loops and delays 😂
We remember when this was more labor-intensive. 😂

I stumbled upon this video... You are fantastic at engaging and sharing excellent content. I really appreciate that you do not verbally waffle and are very concise with your delivery. More power to you! Happily subscribed!!
Thanks for the sun and supporting the channel, I really appreciate kind words of support 🙂🙌🏻
as a produce of EDM, this is one of the greatest you tube videos I've ever come across. Thank you soooo much for sharing these tricks and tips, they make a huge difference. I only wish you could do a cubase specific video, but I guess maybe I should be using Ableton instead :)
I’m so glad this helped!
I’ve done vocal stacking just out of pure laziness on pro tools. Who would’ve thought it’s actually used and you can take it to the extreme where it’s a gem in music production?! Learned a lot from this. Love the video!!
I just lately discovered your channel, really like how you explain all the tricks and tips. Keep up your amazing work and can't wait more cool videos from you!!!
Cheers...I appreciate that!
This is an essential set of tips that I am going to come back again and again to for my productions! Thank you for compiling and sharing!
You're welcome! 🙂
Thanks for all of your clear and concise examples. You've raised the quality bar. RESPEK!
Thank you for watching and kind words of support, really appreciate it! 🙂
That's pretty impressive Will. All I have ever done, apart from the usual processing chorus and echo etc, is double up the vocal tracks then shift, very slightly, one of the tracks so it is a smidge out of time which also gives a chorus effect. I will trying your methods for sure. Rgds Gary
This is one of my favorite videos! I love your energy. Thank you for so much info, i learned so much!
Always wanted to know how to make a splice or loopcloud vocal unique and sound richer, now I know! Amazingly helpful thanks Will, such a great teacher!
You're welcome! 🙂
Thank you, I am glad you found this helpful! 🙌🏻
feel like this one video is what most production students spend an entire semester to learn.....wow.
Oh wow! Thanks for watching and for the kind words of support 🙂
I see you man. I'm not even into EDM and this tutorial got my attention. I'm inspired. Huge thanks.
Love your happy face after adding the vocal stacks!! Well done!!
First trick is exactly what lil peep did. That vocal stack technique is gold.
Thank you, glad you liked it! 🙌🏻
Such a skilled producer. Absolutely brilliant !
Thank you so much, Magnus, I really appreciate the kind words of support! 🙌🏻

Hi Will,
Why did the Monstercat A&R interwiew disappear?
Nr 5.
You did a video using a crossfade on the vocals as well.
Vocoder that's gated with a MIDI sidechain trigger.
@@ephjaymusic Love it!
@@pelikanchocolate378 I needed to tweak it so will publish again this next week
I just had to sub, man you the best for real that's stuff people pay to learn. You content is 100% valuable to all producers, beginner or advanced
Thank you so much, I really appreciate the support! Welcome aboard :)
In just some few minutes now, I have learned with you, what I could have never learned in ages. I subscribed urgentlly. Because, some how, I used to do all those things you did, but by intuition, manually. And the results were never fantastic. I love you Man. Thanks a lot.
Cheers, Renata, I am glad you found it helpful! Thank you for subscribing and supporting the channel 🙂
My new favorite producing tutor! Awesome tips thank you!
You're welcome, glad you're enjoying my videos 🙂
Thanks for watching and for the kind words of support 🙌🏻
great stuff Will. i find it's a good effect to use the original vocal over the top of a vocoded vocal to make it more audible. unless the original vocal is bad lol
Absolutely!
You’re new to me but I’m loving watching and hearing you. You’re very inspiring.
This is like the best video I’ve ever seen on this. Wow!! Thank you! Can’t wait to implement this stuff ❤❤❤
Great stuff, Helen, glad it was helpful! :)
I'm a 50s singer songwriter who uses Logic Pro and doesn't really listen to EDM/Dance music yet I find your videos super informative and easy to follow. The internet benefits greatly from your presence Will. Keep up the great work, Keith
Thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel, Keith, really appreciate it! 🙂🙌🏻
Great video! A lot of these tips are really all about being creative with the basic tools, which can be combined in an infinite number of ways to produce new interesting results. Goes to show you don't need to spend a lot of money to keep your productions interesting-the stock devices are plenty to produce killer tracks.
Couldn't agree with you more! Thank you for watching and kind words of support 🙂🙌🏻
@@EDMTips Love your channel, thank YOU
I don't think I'm spelling this right but that short explanation of "tombral cohesion" is going to be a game changer for me and I really appreciate it. It just makes so much sense and I ALWAYS get stuck with a lingering idea in my head of "WHAT OTHER SOUNDS CAN I ADD" and nothing new will sound good as if my track is fully saturated (but I trust my ear and there's always little details missing), but rearranging the puzzle with the same pieces is the lightbulb I needed to go off. Not only that but I was running out of things to "search for" so a new topic of study is going to lead to so many new techniques. thank you so much
You're welcome, Wesley, I am glad you found it helpful! And you did spell it correctly 😉
Probably the best channel on UA-cam for music production regardless of the genre produced! Kudos mate!
You're a diamond geezer!!!❤❤❤
Thank you so much, I am glad you liked it! 😀
To save people time, I'm indexing the points at which he goes Full Alex Rome.
The first is at 5:23
10:50
Thank me later.
Haha, lol....
😂😆😂
When you listened to the clip with all the harmony and doubled tracks and were just JAMMIN I absolutely beamed!! I was jammin too, sounds so good!!
This video is propably the most useful I've watched in a long time. Can't wait trying these tips.
Go for it! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel 🙂
Nicely done! I will definitely check out some of your other content. I'll probably have more questions too! 😁
Will you are so good! I always feel blessed to watch your videos! Thanks! ❤
Thank you sooooo much for this great Video! Your Tips pushed our progress for our track 120%! We tried all your Tips on our vocals and used the first one and the vocoder. The vocoder ist Killing everything!Keep on making so nice Videos. Do you know how to create a Hardstyle Bassline? A Video of that would be awesome!
So wholesome the way you were just enjoying at the end of the first example
Thank you, Raul, I did enjoy it :)
I've only ever written music in notation software, but I really need to learn how to use a DAW! Thanks for these great tips, especially the ones about thickening vocals. I'm going to check out your video on balancing vocals in the mix right now!
Nice tips man. I've used some of these in early music. Look forward using some of these ideas in my new tracks.
Gof or it, John! Glad you found them helpful 🙂
Simply great content ! Clear explanation of each vocal trick. Love your sincerity when you teach how to do it and also your enthusiasm when you listen to the track ! Cheers mate.
Thank you so much, I am really glad you found it helpful 🙂🙌🏻
Thanks for watching and supporting 🙏🏻
as an experiment, i tried all of these in a track, kept most of these attempts as not all worked, but it really made a boring vocal track pop, great video thanks very much
first time I watch you, I am happy I did it! You are funny with a great spirit! Congratulations on your great work! Greetings from Germany!
Best, most-useable, remixing tutorial I've ever encountered. Brilliant. Thank you!
You're welcome, glad you found it helpful 🙂 🙌🏻
Just wanted to say that this video is incredible. I got so many ideas from watching it plus learned a lot of things that I always wanted to know how to do. Thanks!
Stoked to hear that! Now onto implementing them in your new track 🙂
Love your videos! Thanks for putting these together.
Haha at the end of the first trick, your reaction is hilarious. Kudos on the great tutorial. Subbed.
Thanks for subscribing and welcome aboard! 🙂
Your teaching is stunning! And it is so much fun to watch you cause you love what you do! Thank you!
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel 🙂🙌🏻
Short,concise and to the point as always..Great video Will
Thank you, glad you liked it! 🙂🙌🏻
Very welll done every part of your video was very brilliant
And provide alot of knowledge in just 23 just keep doing what u doing its so better, because that's people actually want to learn like in short and point to point and effectively and variety
These are such great concepts! I do a lot of "traditional" music with live instruments (rock, alternative, indie, singer/songwriter, etc), and I am always looking to add new things. Using vocal layers, especially that octave double and reversed reverb, are my favorite tricks to do! They really help beef out a song. I'm also considering trying out some of these concepts, especially the vocals for percussion!
Go for it, Billy, and let me know how it goes! 🙌🏻
This video and your whole channel and music are totally amazing!!! 🤩😎
Thanks a loooot, your tutorials are so helpful, one of the best teachers on UA-cam, thaaaanks🙏💕🤗
You're welcome, glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching and for the kind words of support 🙂
I remember trying to do that first one on my computer back in 2004.
I didn’t have these tools as a poor uni student though.
Very cool.
Very Well Done! I am going to use this in my latest Rock Tracks. Please continue to make amazing videos!
Thank you, Jason, for watching and supporting the channel 🙂
Absolutely incredible content! Keep up the great work! ;)
This is brilliant - I especially love your genuine passion and joy for the music you are making.
Thank you very much! I am really glad you liked it 🙂
Thank You EDM Tips. Although I wasn't expecting this to be an Ableton tute It works out well for me, as I'm still learning Abe Live, & Reason as well as my hardware synths etc. This is the 1st vid I've seen from this channel, and I've subbed to it.
you're so smart and helpful and happy. thanks for making this video :)
You are so generous and nice, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!! Kisses from France.
Wow! Thanks for this. I'm new in this production thing
This teacher is marvellous and clever. Very clear language. Great ideas brought to you in an easy way. TOP!
I was literally thinking i need some kind of vocal fx in my track so this is a godsend, thanks Will!!
Awesome video! LOL when you going through your vocal chops sound bank.
Wunderbar! Such a delight because you really know EDM and technique!
100% .. its also useful for other instruments that seem brittle, even sub bass can be duplicated and pulled out of phase .. and if still to loud, use tones or texture algorighm which is more lossy .. it works ... love these tactics.
Incredible tips man! Thank you! 😁👍🏻
Wow! Can make anyone behind the mic sound good these days. GREAT content by the way 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
First time here and a new subscriber 😊. Wow !1 You make everything sound so beautiful!! . This is really along shot . For years I’ve been trying to find how they done the voice effect on the 80s he-man tv show . When he says “I have the power “ . It’s sound very heavy layer effects . I’ve asked everyone on every he man group I can find , and everyone seems very interested but no one knows . It might receive a lot of views if you could do an effects break down. Please please let know if you do . 😊😊
Great tutorial video bro your channel is insightful keep up the great work 🎉
this is one of my favorite ones from you. This is loaded! Thank you
You’re welcome! Glad you found it helpful! 🙂🙌🏻
Really love that vocoder!!! This is nice!!
What a great course! Fine work!
Outstanding video ! Love this so much
Man you are the best ;) more of these techniques are rare. Also i use a lot the 4,5 and 6 techique in my projects. Amazing work
Thank you so much, I really appreciate the support! 🙂🙌🏻
@@EDMTips :D
Love what you're doing here with the vocals!! Thank you, I need the tips will #HellYeah

Wow great tips, will totally try this out! subscribed using FL so will have to translate it but it'll probs not be too hard, the theory of it makes sense. Thanks!
