Wav man factory 💫😂

@@yunghashtagofficial do you know producer ocean?? He did the same thing to me😭
Facts
without this youtube channel, i wouldn’t have record over 40 high quality songs. been watching since the old vocal tutorials, keep it going man 🤟🏽💯
I downloaded the fruity loop how do I start recording
i got the same question @@HolagTV
Thank you!!! I’m so lost and my confidence and drive has taken a hit, but you explain it so we’ll and I’m getting my motivation back!
The proper way to record music vocals for amateurs and pros is to have an absorbing baffle or blanket hanging directly behind the singer. What's in front of the singer or on the sides doesn't matter. The reason for that is the live side of the microphone is facing the singer when the mic is set to a cardioid pattern. You want to stop the sound bouncing off the wall behind the singer and returning into the live side of the mic. The mic is dead on the front and already rejecting room noise. What's going on behind the singer is what makes the nasty room noise. It's preferable to have a big live open room in front of the singer so it doesn't sound so dead and stuffy. The slight bleed of the cardioid pattern on the sides of the mic give the vocals some space unlike the dead closet sound. No charge for today's audio lesson. Most professional audio engineers don't know either. The totally dead vocal sound works better for talking voice-over artist.
@R3xred i mean, id do everything wav man said and have a decent blanket behind too
Guys everything this man said is factually correct. this fr makes a difference when having a blanket/thick sound absorbing material right behind you 💯
What about just having a mic filter that covers the whole microphone
Yoo super dope info! My sincerest thank you for taking the time to post it. If you see this and have the time, I have a quick question-- would quadratic diffusors behind the singer potentially sound good or do you def want absorption? Cheers!! - Punchi
Thank you!I was putting the blanket in front instead of behind me
HE'S BACK WITH HIS BLESSINGS! The streets still waiting on that vocal harmonies tutorial, we ready
Vocal harmonies and RIFF and RUNS for black people…. I’m tired of these 1-2-3-2-1 videos on CZcams, need the heat

Dope information on vocals, thanks for this video. You’ve been doing ya thang for a while man, glad to see you come up. Love your personality to man, teaching and persona is important, it’s not boring it’s interesting when you teach. Worth the investment on the presets.
Wow, this was super informative and helpful for me, a singer-songwriter. I am attempting to learn how to properly record my songs and share them with the world and you covered so much information and even gave examples, which helps a ton. I will most certainly watch this video again and again. Thank you so much, I appreciate the work you put into helping out new creators like me. ❤

Appreciate it, practice practice until it’s second nature 💯
Man I found this artist that makes music using a crappy cheap podcast mic. He now removes his info but I dig some of his songs. This one is cool

By far the best tutorial out there!! Man i would love to hear this track you laid down in completion!!
Thanks for this video, it was very helpful! This is the best instructional video on vocal recording that I have found on CZcams. Vocals are ABSOLUTELY the most important part of a successful production. Looking forward to following this channel and learning more from TheWavMan!

I was already loving the tutorial, until you started singing, then I was actually just blown away. You sound incredible forreal! Keep up the awesome content. :)
Great job man! Very well explained.
This is a whole class. Thank you for this information.
yo it's rare that I watch a video like this and feel like my time has been valued. Thank you, I never subscribe, but you deserve it.
You are the truth. Very detailed, well spoken, and all in order for the audience to understand clearly. Hats off to you and your content. I wish more can lead like this. Sharing your content immediately. Passing this information is very helpful to is beginners, and I thank you 🙏💯
I greatly appreciate the inspiration you have for music and you should be a music coach because you know every single little detail about making a song I have been trying for years to just get a computer I finally got one but I don't have enough money for a microphone and I don't have beat making thing for the computer where I can make beats I know how to make beats I've done it in the past on fruity loops a long time ago but it's changed so much that I haven't been able to spend the time to go along with the change so now I'm behind but watching your videos gives me confidence that I can learn it again and make some good music my last computer that I made music on crash and I wasn't able to get anything off the computer and it really took a toll on me and that was over 10 years ago and I haven't made music since so I'm really behind but watching your videos like I said gives me the confidence to know that I am able to get back on making music so thank you for making this video. i appreciate it!!
Yeooooo! This was exactly what I needed to watch to learn how to improve recording my vocals in my home studio. Thank you so much for making this video content bro. I thought about buying the kid roy template tonight, but I ended up buying the Juiced template - since he my favorite artist foreals. Much respect !
Greetings! I'm new here out of South Florida, USA! I really appreciate this information because I'm in the process of building my home studio and I'm clueless. I'm relying on CZcams tutorials to help me and this is a very thorough breakdown. Thank you for sharing! Much love and blessings every time! 🙏🏾🥰🤗💞
incredible video! this sh worth money!
thank you man 🙏🏽, that's a lot to take in but what a great guide. i love the part about projecting the voice, which is what i do when i sing to myself, so i'll definitely use the technique described when recording vocals or rapping
honestly man, thank you 💪🏽🥹
this is sick! 🔊
Bro I know nothing about how to record a song when it come down to what I have to do on the computer, but I after watching your video it gives me the confidence to try it, they way you explained everything was perfect and everything made sense, like it’s straight to the point and you kept it nice and simple.
You’re the goat 🐐fr
I've been on this path, trying to get a better sound out of my vocal recordings. I NEEDED this video! Everything you said was 💣💥💣💥 There's TONS of great tips here!
Thanks for the video. Appreciate you for sharing your knowledge and experience.
Thanks man i found out the skill i needed to master i always wondered why for some reason i am better when i am feeling the vibe without recording than when i actually record, it's the reading skill that prevents the emotion from going to the microphone.
I feel you!
Thanks man I’ve always only been a vocalist and had all this music equipment over here collecting dust but i def gonna start messing with it and do most of the things you said
This was crazy helpful, thank you!
Thanks man this really helped because it feels like I wasn’t finding what I was looking for on CZcams it’s like you answered all my questions 💥🙏

Thank you for this awesome help im currently working on my first album!
It was very useful
Thank you
I got the voice I wanted
I knew most of the techniques you've explained, however I was drawn into the video and liked the way you've explained. What stood out to me is the emotions part that I'm struggling with right now because I'm recording a song that I really like but I can't get myself to sound like I want to BUT after your video I think I'm gonna nail it.
One last thing helps me a lot every time I record is vocal warm ups...IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO ME, Thanks for the video man, you deserve a Like and a subscribe, all the best. Peace.
Big up! Manz defiantly got the correct perspective., Musicality & emotion is key !!!!
“This video is so underrated your giving the best advice for a beginner this will help my friends that’s trying to make music will recommend this to them.
Love the simplicity, clarity & professionalism of the video. A lot of tutorials on YT use language assuming we have enough knowledge & experience to know what they’re talking about. Honestly, I’m typically still lost. This one’s on point. Considering that template. Thank you!
@exacierme I’m stuck on the templates. What does he mean with the templates what’s the process?
@@ReidDaKid That part was (& still is) the difficult part to grasp. If I understand it correctly, he means recording with the plugins/effects you intend to use, so that as your recording the song already sounds closer to the finished sound. This will also help fuel the artists and create or keep them in a Zone. Also, depending on whether you’re mixing it yourself or sending to someone, many engineers benefit from a wet mix (wet = with effects/more finished sound). I’m not sure if I’m explaining what you were asking, but if you’re asking what a template is; it’s a blue print or a pre-setup session within your DAW that will have all the pluggins and settings you typically use or need for a new session. Depending on your DAW you should have the ability to create your own template. This option is usually found within the “File” menu of the program. Alternatively, you can also purchase a template to use, like the ones he provides. If you consider buying a template, make sure you read the details to confirm you have everything required. For instance, there may be a template that has autotune settings in it, but you must have your own licensed copy of Autotune. Also, (if purchasing template) make sure you have the correct version of the software. For example, I once purchased a template that was meant for the highest tier version of my DAW and it didn’t work, I must’ve missed that in the description. My bad for long response, I wasn’t fully sure which part you were asking about so I responded to everything I thought you might ask. Feel free to ask more questions. I still consider myself new to music, but I’m glad to help when/how I can. ✌🏼
Great video
I agree with everything he said
This video will help alot of people
It's insane what is possible dude, thank you so much
