    I'm totally going to try this. Setting my vocals into the mix is the hardest part for me. Drives me nuts that I can make the band sound amazing but I feel like my voice stands out like a pop-out in a childrens book.. gahh..

    To be honest. This is one of the best mixing tipps i've ever gotten. Thanks, Joe.

  • @bradleytellis6767
    @bradleytellis6767 4 роки тому +3

    I have been doing this exact thing and it really does work. What also helps is doing this in mono and turning off one speaker.

  • @MaxiPetrone
    @MaxiPetrone 4 роки тому +3

    Great tip! Im always go back and forth from thinking the voice is too loud to thinking its too quiet in a second, so this is really helpful!

  • @jayjlyon
    @jayjlyon 4 роки тому +6

    Great advice. Andrew Scheps just did a streaming thing for Waves and he was talking about how he approaches mixing, which he said he often does through headphones, at low volumes, then checks his work on his monitors. It makes a lot of sense.

  • @raphaeljohnson8017
    @raphaeljohnson8017 2 роки тому +6

    Definitely going to try this out, just finished a mix earlier today, and vocals sound right in my headphones, but sound louder than I’d like when playing car or anywhere else

  • @TheGary1171
    @TheGary1171 3 роки тому +2

    I have watched other self help videos and all would say, "the vocal needs to sit right above the music", but never said how to achieve that level. I have been recording at home as a hobby since 2010 and this is the first time anyone has demonstrated how to make the vocal sit just right. This one video has made my day. Thanks so much!

  • @mattd7650
    @mattd7650 4 роки тому +8

    The first time I saw this technique was about 15 years ago when I was cutting some songs in The Tracking Room Nashville. I still use it every now and then.

  • @aaronbird9437

    @russellburns2414 3 роки тому +6

    Very cool! Just finished a mix and this was exactly what happened to me, and like you, I loved the vocal sound, but was a bit to loud. Thanks for the video!

  • @dougpopejoy9605
    @dougpopejoy9605 4 роки тому +2

    ahh joe you've done it again! Problem identified problem addressed. I have this issue all the time and it often doesn't become apparent til I listen to the song several months after the final recording.
    thx for the schoolin'.

  • @kyfifer

    Joe. I needed this tip. As a singer who records in isolation, I tend to overblow the vocals all the time. Ooooo the vanity!!!!

  • @risikomuzic8005
    @risikomuzic8005 Рік тому +1

    That "stupid" Tipp is just the smartest Tipp ive got so far on UA-cam, im an artist and im not really into Mix and Master but im Playing around with fruity loops for some years now and started mixing and mastering myself, its hard enough to get confident on mixing the own voice and finding the sweet Spot in loudness is even harder. So thanks for the Video and Keep up the great work!👍 #AboBellLike 😊

  • @MrJacoBezuidenhout
    @MrJacoBezuidenhout 4 роки тому +2

    Every time I start to battle with that one dB up, one dB down cycle I do this. It really does work. My problem is to convince the client that is where the vocal should be, since they are used to a louder vocal in cans...!

  • @nittabeats
    @nittabeats 3 роки тому +1

    Great tip!! I sometimes get lost with the levels when I'm listening to the track at a high volume for long. I always only realise the vocals are way too loud compared to the beat when I'm listening to my stuff on spotify 😅

  • @NathanielBTM
    @NathanielBTM 2 роки тому +1

    I actually discovered this technique myself haha, awesome to see other people do it

  • @slasheadlabo
    @slasheadlabo 4 роки тому +1

    I would say that this trick is useful for every lead track you want to balance. I use it for vocals, but also for guitars, for synths... It works pretty well. And it can sometimes help for just managing the volumes, not only for lead elements.

  • @R.W.FilmSound
    @R.W.FilmSound 3 роки тому +2

    @ArloTarr 3 роки тому +2

    Thanks for this tip Joe! I’ve been struggling with this with vocals and guitars squashing the bass and drums. Never thought to bring volume down. I recently installed Arc 3 room correction. It brings the volume down and corrects my room. I haven’t been using it in this context. I’m going to start using it for this purpose.

    Thanks mixing the vocal with the snare help my mix time 100 I was wondering my vocals too loud to mid range in the car and couldn’t here the snare or kick just vocal and basss

  • @mfkrwill
    @mfkrwill 4 роки тому +2

    I remember one of the guys that taught audio at my college said something similar. Said that a good starting point is to turn everything down, and the vocal should be one of the last things that fades out when you get closer to 0 (like on a radio volume control).
    I'm also a vocalist so I know the feels of making things too loud XD I also have issues compensating the other way around and the vocals end up too quiet.

    Also, If you're using headphones one thing you can try is taking them off and bending them a little so each speaker is facing away but not interfering with each other. Then set it down and listening to the vocal.

    Joe honestly i think you tend to mix vocals on a quiet side. In the past, at least. Now i see you have changed your vocal preferences? :)
    Btw i like your new mixes more than those you had in past. You did a great job honing your skill!

  • @Braz1121

  • @TheDesperateArtist
    @TheDesperateArtist 4 роки тому +1

    In Logic there is a 'D' button on the Master bus, which act like a dimmer - brings the volume down in 1 click. Very useful, IMO, for 'quiet mixing'. Is there something like that in Studio One? a macro, maybe?
    (Gregor, if you're reading this..)

    • @cliffprowse3341
      @cliffprowse3341 4 роки тому

      You could easily use the “mix tool” insert on your master bus and set the gain down to the desired level. Then you can just toggle on/off.

  • @calebneff5777
    @calebneff5777 2 роки тому

    Here's a question for everyone: why do so many people crank themselves in their live monitors? How can you hear what the other musicians are doing? Are you (especially church musicians) just following the track, or are you actually paying attention? I have always preferred a mix in my in ears where I'm at actual live volume, and it has always made me extremely angry to hear that others crank themselves, but I want to learn. What is the deal?
