This is amazing ! Thank you Streaky for letting us see things like this.
That was amazing. More please! This is really helpful. Especially your visual explanations what is going on. This is gold! Thank you!
billie is super lucky to have an amazing producer in her corner from the start. finding the right engineers is most of the battle when it comes to the over all direction you want to go. to be able to find someone that fits at 14 gave her a massive advantage over the people that have to either do it them selves or pay someone. something tells me without finneas, there would be no billie eilish.
fr tho. I wish I had an older brother that can produce lol. Even though I produce my own stuff, having someone who works with you and can provide a new perspective all the time is super valuable. One of the hardest things for me is knowing when the song is done because I can get too focused on every small imperfection. When you work with someone else it doesn't happen as much.
@@jnthnofficial i feel you, im sitting on 2000 "unfinished" songs. can find plenty of producers that make beats, but when it comes to the comping, mixing and mastering, 90% of them suck. finneas had been sound engineering for a decade before we heard anything from billie, not to mention his education is in audio. as much as i want to sit here and give billie props, shes just a product of her brothers life long work. her raw vocal is still far better than most, but i cant help but feel that if it wasnt for finneas already spending 10 years on his craft, the chances of billie becoming billie are slim to non. you can have finneas without billie, but you cant have billie without finneas, it sounds completely different.
@@taylorcliff6609 I totally agree with you, I started producing in 1994 (actually it was before that in 80's as a real kid) but I mean when I first got a Computer (PC) for the task with Cubase, and let me say I was only 13 then. 41 now. Everyone told me I was doing the wrong thing, apperently I was right haha. Whilst I am not famous, dont really care for it.. I just like making people tracks shine I litterally am in this for the love, although I do get paid quite well.. but I mean its all about the side projects too where you help someone with talent but no money its a careful balance -that usually equates to collaboration and a split if something does come in. I have met countless people over the years that can do a handful of things but not the comping etc.. as you mentioned. The only thing I cant do is "sing" but Im fine with pretty much everything else, been doing it long enough. I hope you finish your songs, just have about 3 on rotation and check back with them every couple of days, if not producing yourself use your phone to record the idea on Piano/Guitar and sing.. if no instrument just find some intrumentals you like on youtube and write.. If wanted a producer to help you will find a great one for yourself, just keep listening to peoples work; my jobs have only been through word of mouth; bearly touch the online world but I have been advised that I should.. thus why here on and off now on UA-cam. I dont have online presence. technically do have a soundcloud - somoene was pushing me to upload some tracks.. nothing significent there though and uploaded those years ago, as bearly touch social media apart from a bit of YT.. but maybe oneday I will.. again just not all that fussed. Good luck with your music both of you; as in other person being @Jnthn
@@InsertPlaySmile i am a vocalist / song writer but at this point rather than spending money on getting things mixed and mastered for release i rather just sell my songs and reference tracks. i live in a country of 4m people and the music industry here just doesnt really exist so world of mouth, sadly, revolves entirely around numbers and whether you on radio, no one cares about anything that's independent. my close circle of friends don't even listen to my work, they simply just don't care enough. very confusing time to be making music where i live, i don't think ill ever see a single cent from the last 15 years of work.
@@taylorcliff6609 I see what you mean, I also agree to a point that no one cares, becuase I seen that attitude from people in power in the industry too..I always think there is an audience for everyone too, but it depends how far a person wants to go with it; or how easy is it from a logistic point of view. Then I guess really all you can do is make it for the love of it.. (not far off what Im doing at least with my own personal music) Some artists over the years go through the same thing, with non interest from friends and/or others too and only after people have been and gone are they recognised.. such a shame when that happens. Keep the music real
Fantastic Streaky, what a brilliant breakdown! I hope two now make a vocal Template using these and also your vocal chain that I had absolutely no idea about? but I have now, thank you, thank you, thank you so much, can't wait to see part two.
Exactly the video I needed at the moment. Thank you Streaky!
PLEASE DO MORE STUFF LIKE THIS!!! This is huge and helps so much thank you for your content and keep going! :)
Interesting and helpful video, looking forward to part 2.
Thank you Streaky so much for this very great lesson! Lots to try and think about. The use of the reverb and delay on the channel before the second compressor is really interesting.
6:00 1st EQ
7:00 1st Compressor
7:51 Reverb
9:12 2nd EQ
10:10 2nd Compressor/Limiter
You forgot the delay brother☹️
8:35
absolutely amazing video! thank you so much for that
feeling a lot more control over vocals after this
hope to see some more like these videos
This is really gonna help me tackle vocals for a certain remix I’m doing
Awesome stuff streaky!
much love!!! amazing video G 💜💜💜🎧🎧🎧
perfectly clear explanation! I LOVE IT! thank you so much for doing this and please continue to ❤
I love reverb on the channel to give a track vibe. Reverb on a send will keep the vocal super present and is key in a dense mix but this song doesn’t need that. Very interesting breakdown!
I just discovered your channel. I'm devouring it, literally! Thank you so much 👌
Streaky, may you please tell me where I can find this project (I won't tell anyone 😉 )
Haha even your videos are LOUD! Thanks Streaky, I appreciate your job here.
I keep returning to this production for inspiration and direction. One thing I'm curious to see someone like Streaky break down is the specific reverb settings (thinking filter). I really think that reverb is what gives this production it's unique style. I noticed that Finneas has the filter begin at 170 ish hertz and break around 7k hertz. It ramps up rather quickly too. I've also seen on some of his other productions that he has saved specific reverb that he has made with space designer. I think this would be worth looking into and has made me consider spending quite a bit of time here to find my own reverb settings for productions. Glad space designer gives you this much control.
Wow,this is a great video🤩
Great stuff man. Your a phenomenal musically inclined producer and I think your style is nice and varied but yet balanced and that shows from your perspective and commentary on billies techs choices and I’d love to hear some of your work I will delve deep I think.
Great work
Love your videos bro been super helpful Could you do a rap vocal eq comp reverb tutorial?
Excellent insightful video about a top notch production - many thanks Streaky.
Also, talking of 'fades', that's a rather nifty haircut you've got there (I'm jealous as I'm rapidly turning into a bald egg...).
Anyway, if possible, let's have more of these videos where you analyze other top producers' work in such clarity Streaky, cheers.
Haha thanks I’m hanging on too
Wow, amazing streaky how you improved your video quality. Infinitely better that old ones with such a excess of light brightness.
Audio as usual top content ✅
PD. Why you’ve changed your table from Kurutxa?
Thanks I haven’t this is the Atmos end of the room when I turn around the mastering section is there with the desk kii speakers and kit etc
This is a great video, very educational and to the point!
this information is so valuable. thank u streaky
Definitely a nice 👍🏾 video thanks 🙏
Great Streaky!
Thank you for your educational videos.
I wanted to ask what consoles you use to the right and left of your keyboard and how happy you are with them.
Best thing I LOVE about session reveals is when pros/reviewers/producers/engineers (me included) say things like: “NORMALLY You’re Not Supposed To Do XYZ or put this effect here”, but YET, in the session -> ALLL The Rules have been BROKEN! And THAT’s why the songs sound so dope! 😈👌🏽
in all the years i have lookd at you tube this is the very best a big thanks
Great video Cheers
Great video 👌
where is the part 2 ??? It's mad interesting, thanks for the part 1
Yes ... I see many times the best thing is to have two compressors in a vocal chain, one more "loose" for power and control and the more active - the second one that gives you that surgical approach at the end so you "fine tune" the vocals to the mix. It's counterintuitive because you would think that it's too much or you will lost the dynamics (that is left ...) but it works like a charm. Great video Mr. Streaky. 👍👍
I use 3
I like an 1176 first to tame initial peaks then a La2a farther down the chain to smooth and add some girth to the entire vocal track ;)
seems like alot of high end studios have it going thru analog then to the daw. so if you only are working with plugings youd probably wanna compress and raise dynamics then eq and compress again :)
@@hefflstudio6675 It's the best approach ... I don't work with computer daw at all, just at the end for mastering or for extra sample manipulation. It's best do to as much as you can outside the "cold, un- alive, sterile" computer environment. :)) For vocals especially you want to first have something analog or high end digital (before you go to computer daw...) to warm things up and give it some character ...
Love this mans info👍 Priceless
DEAR GOD THANK YOU FOR THIS
This is amazing. How on earth did you get access to this - and also permission to dissect it in public like this?
Great instruction!
Enjoyed the breakdown thanks
Hi Streaky - thanks for this video! I have looked at this demo in Logic before (although I am mostly in Studio One these days), and wondered at the use of multiple EQs and compressors. Great POV on this. One unrelated question -- I really like your video monitor, the angle, the vertical positioning. I'd love to have something like that. Can you give me info on this?
It’s just a normal curved screen with a desk bracket nothing fancy
As always, lovely...🙃🙃🙃
I know nothing about producing but this is interesting as hell. You also make it really understandable fora non-technical audience, thanks.
YOU ARE A GENIUS!
Great video! Do you happen to know what mic and pre this vocal was tracked with? Thanks!
Nice!
Great video 👍
I learnt something today.
Been sending my efx bus(es) separately to the mix bus. Will try efx bussed to their respective sub group; or as an insert as per this vocal.
Brilliant insider insights. Fk yes subscribed👍👏
Fantastic analysis. I teach mostly and just wondering if it is possible to purchase something like this as a 'preset' Download please?
Good tricks!!!! I will try them...
bro you so f....ing good!!! damn is years that i follow you! top top top
What's interesting is the delay is affecting the reverb too. Using series of effects like this can often produce unique and interesting tonal qualities when applied carefully. Sometimes running a reverb into a delay/saturation etc. or vice versa makes it all happen...
The best video I have ever heard about sound engineering. Very simple the way you explained it it clear thank you so much.
I love the setup - controller/mixer/knobs/buttons/curved monitor etc. Do you have a video where you explain such?
this is pretty much what I do already, always surprised that I know more than I think
Streaky you the goat
Very helpful thank you, I didn't realise this was in Logic as you discuss below thanks for pointing that out Clive, for me, this is worth it as you say Streaky just to know that, and it's great cos I can explore the logic project on my own then come here too, all good much appreciated
Hey Streaky, What is the monitor mount you use? Thanks. I have a good one, but want to get one that I can slant when mixing Atmos. Not a big deal from what I have, but thought it would be nice to test.
Awesome video ! Could you please give advise on what monitors you would buy for mixing and mastering. I'm torn between the barefoot footprint 01 and hedd type 20
Both are great I would lean towards the Hedd but it’s a tweeter thing….the footprint are nice in the right space
@@Streaky_com hello!
What about between the neumann kh310 and the type20 ?
@@Streaky_com thank you so much for the reply and advice 🙏. I am also leaning toward the hedd mainly because I love ribbon theaters and am used to my adam a7x top end sound
Hi streaky, thanks for this video. Whats the purpose of checking out finneas vocal chain in this session if you say in the beginning of this video, that this project is obviously going to a mix engineer? That actualy means that the final product went through a total different chain, or am i wrong?
I don't know but I can point out that the vocal chain and how an engineer uses that chain are different things.
You are 100% correct. I'm sure those mix engineers all use these crappy logic plug-ins as well. Pointless video.
Love this run down. One minor thing! Are both compressors fully mixed? at 10:55 I was wondering if the mix on the VCA was 100% or if it was blended. Couldn't see. Thanks for the great content!
An often overlooked feature about Logic Pro X is that it comes with the full project file of "Colors" by Beck, and now Billie Eilish's "Ocean Eyes". A nice analysis, but hardly an exposure.
Will be fo some that haven’t bothered to open it !
Damn colors has crazy production wish I had logic just to see that
Noticed this browsin around at the apple store 😂
@@Streaky_com yep that’s meeee. I had no idea it even existed. How do you get it?
It’s more of the fact this man chose to sit down and explain step by step certain things a beginner wouldn’t know. This is cool to watch
One of the Best producers that I never see before! Greetings from Colombia!
Fantastic video. He get's right into the good stuff and his explanations are vivid and clear. Looking forward to more.
THANKS
I’ve been waiting for this kind of video coz I’m a fan of Billies vocal production and good thing you did this. Hopefully the 2nd part comes out before ww3. Lol kidding..
🤞🏻
I haven’t listened to this song but it sounds good and cool to see how it’s created.
Streaky looking Buff 💪
That “take 37” BREATH !!!! bruh!!! That was genius!! 🥺🔥
This is Great! No de-esser?
Part 2
This is NOT the actual vocal chain. This is a recreation for Logic Pro X based on the types of plugins he might use in order. He's not using stock plugins. It's good that you've gone through and explained how someone could use stock plugins in a similar way. The commentary on it is good.
This is just a demo piece of Apple. Is it exposed if it's something every Logic Pro X user gets for free??
I was going to ask about this.
Clickbait crap.
Incredible content Streaky, thanks so much for your honest and easily digestible tutorials like this - this gives me so much hope and inspiration that by doing the right things in the right way you can truly learn to master this craft without it being top secret voodoo witchcraft!
streaky- where did you get that monitor desk mount??????
Looks like the vocal chain I use watching Professor Streakys vids...mehhh...👀😂🔥🔥
cool! please could you say a word of the gain staging of the vocal track?
@@Projacked1 i was talking about the level before hitting each plugin.
@@ardierr.2525 same rules. it's not about the setting but the ears
I was always curious about his vocal chain for her
The point is streaky, I've seen top end producers create a zillions of loops to outboard hardware for coloration and proper eq and compression. The end stems may end up in the computer for the final finishing touch with stock stuff from logic. But they do a lot of processing out of the eye of the onlookers.
Do you think this Logic session made it to the final release? Or do you think they did a mix with 3rd party plugins? To be honest I also opened the session and it sounded not so good to my ears... Production is nice though.
I think yes it went to a mix engineer but this is the production
@@Streaky_com thanks streaky
Working in Logic just as Phineas. Full dedication bruh.❤
this aint no exposing.. she shares the logic files freely
I’ve got to put something I’m looking for viewers 🤷🏻♂️
What editor are you using or analyzing to put all the pluggins into place?
..
Tell me its free
How did Streaky get the session tracks?
There you go...this is how i like it ...make more vid...
The labels of the channels in the mixer are displayed completely in two or three lines. Where is this setting option to be found?
Does logic automatically color the tracks like that or is that something they did manually?
Where did you get those stems?
Is it syncro arts Vocalign by any chance?
Any idea what mic they used? From memory a Neumann TLM 103?
eq part
streaky : "...adding a lil bit warmth to vocal..."
me, watching 5-7 db boost : "👀 "
gain looks super low and waveform is tiny on the vocals. Does this not cause problems when mixing or is it okay?
Have you found the screen coming from below / you looking down towards it, is better for posture, than a big screen straight in front of your eyes?
It’s better for the sound and that’s my priority 👍
Even stripped of her plugins her voice is a marvel. We DO NOT have any hope to sound that good😂
7:22 I'm still new to mixing. I thought you were supposed to level match?
hey! love your video! it's awesome! but, i notice that your screen is pretty low than your eye/head. from the video i can see your neck and back is not a 'healthy' angle for long time work. i'm not doctor, but i've been a neck problem due to long time not correct sitting and working way to the screen and suffer a pretty bad problem. so, just wanna share with you and health is the base of everything. cheers! \m/
On simply words the artist here is the engineering
Can u do happier than ever
Does that low monitor not give you neck ache?
Bro. Those vox without effects are clean as hell. It's not normal. 😂😂😂
Version on Spotify is much brighter anyway, some stereo widening and they changed some reverbs on the clap and changed the kick. Maybe you could explain some opposing choices. On the Vocal Texture bus? First the cut highs with a shelving Console EQ but after that 'they' boost the highs with a shelving channel EQ? Why not just leave it then?
This is pretty close to the premaster if I'd have to guess. Widening and eq sweetening is often left for mastering as they might have better sounding eqs, experience and monitoring than mixing engineers do.
Can you make 1 that is recorded with the Neumann TLM 103?
