In this video, we talk about six (or more) biggest mistakes people make when mixing vocals. We'll go into how to keep the volume of your vocals even throughout your song with tools and tricks in FL Studio that can help you fix this automatically (or manually).
We'll also go into EQ Tonal Balance (equalization) and how to use it to make sure your vocals blend well with the rest of the music, without losing their natural sound or becoming too thin or too bassy.
We'll share some tips on how to apply compression and reverb the right way so the effects work properly and make your vocals sound awesome.
Also, we'll talk about sidechain compression and how to apply it to make sure your vocals sit nicely in the mix with the rest of your music, don't clash but instead work together to sound like one complete song.

Number 6 gotta be the most valuable tip, appreciate u brother
Very useful and professional vocal mixing tips with explained logics behind the common mistakes . I personally think this channel is the number one trustworthy reliable source to learn and level up . I'm pretty sure many still make these mistakes . Thank you max and the mixelite team . best regards
There are a lot of videos out about fl studio
I mean for yrs I have been watching these videos and I think you're one of the best out fr
Hey Max, just wanted to say thanks for all the amazing tutorials you've provided. You've really helped me improve as a producer 🛐 ! I was wondering if you could do a video on the optimal order of plugin usage during mixing. Your insights would be invaluable 😄! Keep up the fantastic work 💖
This was great dude thanks!
This was super duper helpful, thank you
Kolejny super film! Kiedy tłumaczysz, sprawy zaczynają być w końcu proste. Bardzo chciałbym kiedyś zobaczyć Twój film na temat selekcji brzmień i sampli, i o właściwych poziomach głośności. Twoje poradniki są najlepsze! Czekam na następne!🔥💯
Sidechain reverb definitely makes a huge difference.
For tip 6 I believe in a previous video you mentioned a patcher preset that does this really well? (Youlean Multiband Sidechain) Or am I missing a subtle nuance in the difference between these techniques?
Thanks for everything you do, your channel has really helped me a ton, especially in vocal production.
Hi I'm from the mailing list 🤠, I haven't seen the video yet I'll save it for tonight, I'm excited
This is a pretty well thought out explanation of everything. I’ve watched so many tutorials trying to learn how to mix, and this explained a few concepts in ways that made more sense to me. Thank you!
fr bruh
I couldn't say any better
Love your work
Max is seriously one the beat mixers I know. The PML tutorials have helped me come a long way in a very short amount of time.
For the patcher vocal rider preset, do you just apply it after recording? Then consolidate and then normalize?
Bro got the gold content 👏🏽🇧🇷❤️
This is fire 🔥
thx for video man
Thank you very much for one of the best videos on that subject.
Oh MAX you're back!!!
einfach DANKESCHÖN mann 🧡
Some great ideas! I liked the hip hop vs EDM EQ tips, even though I'm more on the rock side (hey; I like a few Nu Metal bands). I love the explanation of why sometimes you want to back away from the mic as well. Not many people explain how the boominess can interfere with the mix
I agree with over compression. Sometimes what I thought was autotune was over compression. "What the hell? I haven't pitch corrected, so why do I sound autotuned?" It took me a while to figure out it was compression. I also love your explanation of the settings.
The idea of sidechaining using a different compressor is something I would have never thought of. Nice
Best video tips fl studio ever ❤
I use soothe2 for EQ sidechaining
Not gonna lie, I used to use sidechain reverb, but I dislike the way it sounds so these days, I don't bother with it. Instead, I just take some extra time to dial in the settings properly
Maybe your sidechaining reverb too harshly. It's mainly to have things pop out more and give space for whatever the reverb is supporting.
You have to adjust it according to your mix that where you have a reverb that not swallow your vocal.
Same
Just apply eq on reverb side chain
Do you mix with headphones?
Thank God I've done all of this already.
the phase rotation from EQ (or that causes EQ, rather) is only really an issue at slopes of 18db/octave or higher, using something like a 6db or 12db high pass should not result in any audible phasing issues
Thanks for the video and those hints and cues, it's very helpful ! However, I saw on many videos and tutorials that cutting all the lows in vocals can unbalance your final mix, many sound engineers recommand putting a low shelf rather than a HPF. Is anyone doing this ?
Thanks🙏
I don't understand English well, but these videos explain better than videos in my native language.
More vocal mixing tuts 🙏🙏🙏🙌
actually i saw the same curve on a Teezio session on Joyner vocals (the one that supposed to be wrong), sometimes if that's what sounds right go for it.... it's a creative choice especially if your room is treated well or if you are used to the sound of your headphones if that's what you use for mixing, and don't forget to get a second opinion from people who actually know what they're talking about, maybe some people won't like your sound but that doesn't mean you change it to please them because not everybody comes from the same musical background but you can find a comfortable place in between.
Helped
welcome back Max...I missed you. #NoH0m0
Finally makes sense
😊 Thanks
omg man this is the first video out of all the videos I've watched for years actually helped, you explain so simple and easy for my brain to actually fucking wrap around, and understand.
pro's don't sit the vocals in the mix, you have to always think ahead if you sit the vocal in the mix during mastering the vocal will be under the mix you should always sit the vocal slightly on top of the mix
Or have fun with volume settings so it makes your vocals stand out
How to find the perfect threshold and ratio to compress vocals?
when i sidechain the reverb, nothing shows up in the "comp" section of the limiter. so i can't alter the ratio and such.
Bro i won't even watch the video. The first harmonic of the "pro" eq was completly outstanding
Good video, I just wish you’d used a better vocal sample, cause this one is absolutely GRATING. Gave me a headache.
worst thing about being a freelancer is sometimes, your client has the worst vocal and singing skills you ever heard.
Coloca traduções em português irmão, você é foda 👏🏻
🔥🔥🔥
Where’s the video for doing the side chain eq for vocals?
It's here: czcams.com/video/q3EVvhlcCcE/video.html
@@theMixElite thank you so much!
My voclas just dont blend with the beat. It feels like the beat is running different and the voclas are floating above the beat and just dont blend with the beat. Any tips?
Reverb, i use two reverbs
@@Heavenly_demon223 intresting. Can you tell me how you use 2 reverbs
@@akshamthakur4689try cutting some lows on the reverb with an eq
It seems like you made this video for me😂😂
Also! If you ever need better vocals to use for an example, tap in!
Podcast vocal...!
How are you
nice and u?
Pretty good pretty good
❤🔥
Music is music. Ain’t no rules
Compenenors 😂
Right when he was rapping that your comment popped up lmao 🤣
Helo
I boost at 100hz before low cutting below 120 just to give a touch more fullness to make up for what you have to cut out. Voices are so rich without the instrumental and it's a good compromise to retain some of it
Also, the tip of threshold set to the quietest desired peak db level trick is pretty good
You can tell during the compression bit, the vocalist accidentally said competintors and predintors
PML is over now it is Mix Elite ?
MISTAKE #1... RECORDING IN FL 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Where should i record?
Every DAW is great, it's just depending on your skills & knowledge how to use it
With fl studio 21 it's pretty good
I’ve recorded really great songs on fl studio
