Don't mind me, just commenting for the algorithm so my guy can get that coin.
thank you kindly
✨✨
❤❤❤❤
Nice
You said help bro get that coin and learn some shit at the same time time
I cannot even tell you how grateful I am for this! Your willingness to share useful information and give back to other artists/content creators is so humbling. Thank you thank you. You've inspired me, and I congratulate myself on understanding your processes, making me feel ready invest into my gear, especially for my home videos. So cool! Guess my question is, do you ever EQ your reverbs? Taking out some of the low ends especially for a tighter halo around your vocal tone?
try adding a low cut EQ and take out everything below around 250 hz also a high shelf eq can be nice too taking out some high end.
I had a full mixing class at UCLA and this was way more informative and easier to understand! Blessings xx🧡
😂 😂 😂
I went there too! not for music, but I did take some of the music business and musicology courses.. did go to LA recording school tho.. and I can say you will almost never learn in a traditional college what you can from youtube or a trade school for this stuff..
AMEN on the auto tune part. I can’t tell you how many mixes I’ve done for people that say “ can you turn down the auto tune and make sound more NaTuRaL “ NO BECAUSE YOU CANT SING. People think auto tune can make people sing, Wrong, you need to have talent and it just saves time in not having to record 100 takes to get it 100% perfect. It only has to be 90% perfect. Very well said my friend.
YOU SOUND INCREDIBLE DONT LET ANY "ENGINEER" TELL YOU IT DOESNT. PERIOD. LOVEU
I went a music institute and u made understand all these buttons and what they “taught me” in 30 mins in more than a year good job explaining fr😊
He is a source of inspiration...not just in music but in general, in life.❤❤love and support from Mauritius❤
Thank you so much for showing all the takes in your session, for the longest time I thought I sucked because it does take me an hour to get a 2-minute take I'm proud of. You know, warming up, figuring out the vowels and breath support, timing, getting into the zone essentially. Edit: also, you sound better without tuning, the result is more human and soulful!
It's so good to listen to his voice. It's classic and contemporary at the same time
To the tips about focusing on artistry over equipment: PREACH PREACHAAA!!
Thank you for sharing your journey, tips, and prices for everything you use in such a plain, conversational, and informative way
My boy can sang! I feel you on that "one note that nags" joint. The whole thing can be flawless but I'll remember and focus on that one note and it will haunt me.
Great Video!
This soothed some misconceptions I had about Auto-tune, so thank you. I'm already a shy singer so when I heard what my voice sounded like on full auto-tune, I was like "oh god, I must be awful if it's working that hard to pull me on pitch" so I started making the settings on pitch correction less harsh. I liked the sound better, but still wondered if I was using incorrectly. Nice to see that more lenient settings on auto-tune is okay :)
Jo - I love your simple approach to recording! This is super helpful & valuable info and I look forward to applying this to my worship videos. Thank you so much & God bless!
That is a great sounding vocal sir! May I suggest making an aux channel for the reverb instead of putting it directly on the vocal channel? Plugins (much like hardware) react differently based on how much signal you feed through them. And every plugin has a sweet spot. If you need anymore explanation I'd be happy to help.
Helpful video brother. God bless you.
never stop being this real and understanding. Thanks man. This video helped me out a lot.
Thank you for the transparency and simple, yet detailed breakdown. I'm constantly trying to improve the quality of my content, so this will definitely come in handy!!
Loved the video. Butttt you actually CAN record without the effects while still JUST hearing the effect through the Apollo. See that little red dot on the inserts, click it and it’ll turn blue. When it’s blue you can HEAR the effects BUT it won’t record them. One of my fav Apollo features! 🙌🏾🙏🏾 I hope it helps!
Joseph, man, thanks for the intel here. just picked up the SM7B so this info is seriously appreciated. Your music is absolute class too. Would be so sick to do a jam together.
Thanks for the video man, really helpful for my recording journey 🙏🏻
I really like how honest you are and don't make your self sound super professional ...Im an engineer but i still watch videos like this to learn different workflows
I've always been a little interested in recording myself with like a real setup not just my phone so this was very helpful but I play guitar too I'd be curious to see how you record your guitar as well
Youre amazing! Thanks for the gems. Reminded me of when my vocal coach told me that 99.9% of favored artist all use autotune.
Thanks man ! Ive been always a good singer/musician but my mix is always crap ! 😅 this really helps
i fuck with the honda / acura analogy ... on point
I really enjoyed this. I've been studying music production and every great producer I have the pleasure to talk to or watch some masterclass or course says that it's about removing the weird things and frequencies and not about trying to ad stuff to your mix, specially when it comes to bad recordings. great video!
I'm so glad I found this. Just in love with your approach! Simple yet delivers great results. I am sure your journey hasn't been easy, but you're doing a great job Joseph. God bless you! Looking forward to to listen to your music and more of such helpful videos.

Woah, you have a really nice tone in your voice. Just wanted to say that I could definitely tell a difference in auto tune, perhaps because I’ve played the violin for around a decade and tuned it without needing the tuner too, so the trained “perfect” pitch inside of me is tingling me whenever the tuning is even a bit off. Hahaha, I guess it’s just my problem, but you really are a great great singer and auto tune is like the salt and pepper that enriches/supports your voice to sound much more natural, don’t know if you get what I mean but keep up the good work brother!
One of the most beautiful vibrant voices of our time my friend
This was so useful and the algo suggested it to me at the perfect time! I just started learning how to use a DAW for vocals last month and was overwhelmed with the interface at first. Hearing your thought process is super helpful and I can't thank you enough for creating this video!
Thank you for not just sharing your incredible beautiful covers but also sharing your knowledge!
I literally asked for this video yesterday. He replies to my comment and makes it a day later. Ur fucking insane man. Thank you so much.
to be fair, i had already recorded it on saturday lol but you’re welcome
Thank you so much, Joseph!!
Really exited for the video-editing tutorial!
I’ve been enjoying your videos for about a year now. Always thought you had a team or something working on your vids. This goes to show that most of a great, natural sound is the work done before you even open a DAW and start recording. Great sound in, even better sound out. Thanks a lot for sharing your process.
I just watched your lighting video but was also wondering if you could do a tutorial on your lighting for these type of videos, i love how the light feels so natural and unlike other creators your record during the day… how do you keep is so even ? Please and thank you!
God bless you cuz you sho coulda had this be a Skillshare class!!!😁✍🏾📝
Thank you for choosing to sow into others who may not have the means otherwise. 🙌🏾
Yessssss Joooo thank you been waiting on this one!!
Yes, Thank you so much for this! Love your clean simplistic sound on UA-cam!
First time watching and listening to your music. Just found you off of Tiktok and I just wanna say bro you're a musical genius! Talented and skilled! Keep doing you, man! Your music is great and you just gained another fan.
you are an inspiration bro fr
You the real man bro, lets bump your algorithm up. Have a blessed one!!
Your analogies are very enlightening - Thanks for sharing your insights very useful video.
This was so helpful. Just applied some of this and immediately sounding 10000x better🔥🔥🔥 thank you!
awesome!!!
Thank you so much for your advice and transparency about your process!
Thanks for all the helpful advice man. Never really looked at autotune as a tool but rather as a cheat. You definitely made it sound appealing as a tool to basically get the best out of an already amazing performance!
Everyone don't think that you need all the fancy gear to start off..
Cheap Mic : Behringer SL75C
Cheap Interface : Behringer UMC22 or UM2
Cheap/Free DAW : Reaper
Even this is higher than is needed, but you learn to make do with it, you'll be better off for the future.
Thanks man youre amazing! Waiting for the creative content youve been talking about 👊🏼👊🏼
This is what I been waiting for from you. Much love. Thanks.
Ahh Joseph thank you so much man, been watching your covers for a long time and love your sound! Appreciate you🙌
Thank you so much for sharing this. I'm looking into voice work and although I realize there are many differences when recording music, I think this may be really helpful.
Awesome video mate, thank you!!
bro your grading on this vid is beautiful, stunning
this is exactly what I needed today. You are an example to follow. I will be releasing my own covers soon! I am excited :)))
Amazing content, very clear and helpful! It’s impressive how you keep your vocal identity using just the necessary touch of each plugin
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for this - super helpful!
Can't wait for the recording videos tutorial!! :D
Oh this video is perfect thank you !
Thank you so much! that was a ton of help. my only issue now is I use a nt1 and having all the little noises that break through and how clean it sounds irks me sometimes. Im still learning but with a newborn I cant be dropping money on a new mic right now. Thank you again. I love watching how people record cause I want to learn.
Joseph PLEASE do a video on how you make the videos / how to sync the audio!! Would greatly appreciate that
Thank you so much. You have just blessed us all. ♥️
love how you give examples out of music works
love it! you should make more videos like this, thank you bro!
Man... from the heart. Thanks for this video! Love your contents and see how its done is awesome.
the guitar yooo, i was waiting for that but loved
This is amazing great video!
Love this video!!! Very straightforward to the point and tremendously useful. Thank you so much!!!
Fantastic explanation! Thanks! you have a wonderful voice!
This was so helpful thanks a lot, your music and covers are great too!
I’ve wanted this video for a while. Thank you so much for this helpful video 🙏🏽
Your covers are beautiful
I just have one question please... your waveforms on Logic Pro are so clear !!! They greatly fill the height of the track, how do you do it? Is it just the gain staging that allow such a clear recording on the track? Are there other elements (plugins - settings on logic or others...) that allow to obtain such definition?
Thanks a lot !
This was really straight forward and helpful. Thank you.
Yes i agree sounds great and i enjoy all the videos and im sure many agree as well keep up the Great work !!!!! Blessings
bro your video quality is amazing
THANK YOU SO MUCH JOSEPH THIS IS THE WORLDDDD
LOVED that intro, such a good song !!!
Lol, love the dancing for say a little prayer for you.
Great and smooth natural voice, dude. Very pleasant to listen to.
You can’t give the world the secret krabby patty formula babyyyyyyyyyyyy!
thank you. you're great, bro! don't stop
bro youre amazinggg, thank you for your consistency to us🐼🔥🔥🔥
I’ve been waiting for this one thank you!
a great perspective and walk through 🙌🏾 thanks bro!
thanks for watching!
Joseph this is great and very specific to aspiring musicians. I would recommend that you do an actual course and sell it. An additional way to make money using your knowledge. you can make your course like from beginning to end of your process of audio recording, and post. also your video work setting and all. I know many famous UA-camrs making money out of their knowledge. like skillshare, or their own course. Ali abdaal for instance is a good channel and he does a lot, another one is excel girl. You go man! I'll be the first one to buy it. You are an awesome explainer/teacher, and what you produce is really quality as well.
Thank you for the look behind the curtain! It's very valuable and I appreciate it a lot!
I'm just curious, what are reasons for you to make another take? Cause it looked like every take is the whole length of a song. So I assume it's not like "oh f*** I didn't hit that note! Starting over!". Is it more like you listening back to it and thinking, "hmm I don't quite got the energy right". And then you make as many takes as you need until you got one that you feel 100% comfortable with? No compromise? Or do you still have to kinda say to yourself "I'm very happy with that one! Just that one little thing is bugging me a bit, I'm going with this one".
Sorry for the many questions, I hope you know what I mean :)
Thank you again for the content!
most of them are not full takes. but yeah sometimes i listen back and if i don't "feel" it all the way through, i can't expect my audience to. so far, when i'm actually excited about how something turned out, it also gets a lot of views. songs that have not performed well ironically, i already felt on the fence about when i finished it. so it's a gut thing. i'm pretty picky too lol especially for the first half of the song. if the first 30 seconds don't make me feel some kinda way immediately, then people are less likely to keep listening. if i feel like there's a part that takes away from the whole vibe, i'll just redo it until it feels right or come back to it another day.
Your analogies are spot on! :)
Love your vibe, thanks for the tech advice. I'm saving up for better equipment
I love your energy man, you're awesome ☀️
Thanks so much man!! Subbed 🙏🙏🙏
Don't forget the video on how u make the video sync with your recorded vocals and guitar 😔♥️
Love the video but can you make a video on how you color grade your videos and also what video editing software you use?
Please forgive me
You’ve always inspires me
I want to know if you normally Mastered your Track after recording and mixing before syncing with your video
Or you just sync the mixed track outta the Daw with your video and upload to UA-cam
This video my man was super helpful!!! thanks !! I'll be on the lookout for the video about how you edit your video and audio together on Final Cut Pro. please please !! Thanks again for sharing your talent and your creative process. Keep it going !!!
Great!
Thank you for sharing your useful information. ❤️
Man thanks for this. This was dope top to bottom bro
Great video! And blessings to you for sharing it for free!
Thank you for this...loved everything about it. you rock man
Thank you! also can you do some singing tutorials?? like Diaphragm Support?
soo happy you made this video, it is sooooooooo helpful. Bless you^U^.
Could you do a video regarding not getting copy-written if doing covers please?
great video man, sound engineering fundamentals that everyone should know
Yeah! Nice & crisp voicals mix!
