    Hey Wayne, do you have any videos on perhaps basic basic mixing techniques? For instance, I use Mixpad from NCH software, been using it for 20 years now, I wanna know basic HAAS technique and other ways to intensify the vocals more while keeping them as clean as possible. I already love your channel, just subscribed, thank you in advance man!

    Hey man great video, I have a question what happens when you hear yourself lower in volume when putting on a pair of closedback headphones? Is there anything you can do for this? What I mean is that there are parts that I tend to overs sing without understanding that I'm pushing my voice to its limits (when it comes to volume) but I wouldn't have used so much of it (volume again) if I could listen to myself with the same detail as when not using headphones. My vocal chain is pretty much the same as you display here with the exception of using a BF-76 plugin. Also my headphones are a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 770 at 250Ohm. Any suggestion would be extremely helpful

    This why I’ve stuck with Adobe. I got everything you said but that was so complicated I can’t see a beginner getting it. If I didn’t have 15 years experience as an engineer I would’ve been lost wavy. Headed to do a session tonight for a client that’s intent on using protools I’m sure a few things in this video will help me. Definitely a great refresher for someone intermediate

    Hey Wayne, I've watched a couple of versions of this video now. (Good job btw) and I'm the kind of guy who will watch the video one step at a time and follow the instructions as you explain them. In both versions of this video you show importing your beats. My pro tools, my computer, my interface...whatever, has no beats for me to choose from. I've went online and tried to download plug ins or whatever but I'm getting nowhere. I've seen apps where you can get and have access to a bunch of different beats and samples but I download them and still...no beats. I'm stuck at that step.

    Does anybody know how the course works? Do deadlines take into consideration that you may have a ft job + children and responsibilities? Like is there a big enough window to allow a person with priorities to submit work and take exams?

    This helped me understand how to build a session from scratch however the tempo is wrong when I put the instrumentals with the right tempo but it sound like a Dj screw track and my voice once done recording after recording out of curiosity sounds like a chipmunk when playing it back then the instrumentals plays normal

  • @KnowledgeCookedItUp

    Yo Wavy I have a question…I see people turn the beat down from the “clip gain” on the beat but here I see your using the fader…but is that misleading since the faders are pre-fader? I’m confused lowkey lol

    • @waynewav
      @waynewav  Рік тому

      Both can work for different reasons but the clip gain is good.

    • @JoshuaMNielsen

      ​​@@waynewav dropped a question on your video dedicated to clip gain ("Using Clip Gain in Pro Tools") because I have some questions on this as well. Would you mind taking a look over there and providing me any feedback? I think I may have been mislead in a mixing and mastering class I took.
