By far the best tutorial I’ve had, super straight to the point, works better than the rest, explained the meaning of it while not dragging it on or over complicating things
Thus literally realky good u say what to do and how staright to it thats what i need none of those vids where they say everything thing else exept the acctuall thing
yo love the video man! used this tutorial and it made my songs sound so much better and alive!! im an up and coming rapper/singer been in this for a while man but I do everything on my own can't trust people in this industry but its because of people like you and videos like this that help independent artists like me actually have a fighting chance. so thanks bro!
thank you dj uni, you and dean have taught me everything i know about mixing and mastering. i didnt have a clue what i was doing before i found this channel. i follow everything you all do to make the outcome of my music sound better
Bro the crazy part is Ive done mixing on adobe but That was years ago and now Im back recording its different. But this is what I need to learn what Ive been missing out on for all these years
Hey there! No, the moves I show you in this video are by staring from a blank audio track and adding all of the processing yourself :). When you click on those presets then it comes up with a predetermined ("preset") Reverb, EQ, compression, etc. sound... which can be great and it super simple but the techniques I'm showing in this video are how to create your own vocal sound from scratch!
Hello i have a question, I do all of this but the problem I hear a lot of echo is that because I choose the voice “natural” and should’ve left it on normal? Help please
Hey Marco! The effects/processing that I describe in this video is based on started with an empty audio track, meaning no pre sets, we are building from scratch. Either way, if you are hearing too much echo then I would look at my echo plugin or echo slider and tone it down a bit. Hope that helps Marco! -Dean
Hey LoyalTooCold, no you certainly don't have to, it's just a very (very) commonly used tool that gives a particular sound sonically as it not only tunes but adds a bit of sheen/brightness to the vocal... but again, there's no rule that says you have to use it!
Hey whosjet gaming! Yes, you can certainly use DeEssing if you're hearing harsh plosives (S's, T's, P's, etc). Backing up one step, I like to keep an eye on those syllables as I record, taking note any time an S or T or P is super harsh and then recording again and making sure to turn my head slightly away from the microphone so that air from my mouth does goes straight into the mic and overload it. I also make sure to use a wind screen/pop filter! That said, you can still run into harsh sibilant sounds so that's when you would use the DeEsser. Hope that helps! -Dean
Hey Dave! I'm not saying everybody wants autotune on their voice but I am saying more people do want than don't so I show how to do it in this video :)
Hey Destamoon! Ad lib vocals are the little things you say/sing in-between your main/lead vocal for extra flavor/interest. I usually happens in between the lead phrases so they don't compete with each other. Hope that helps!
Hey A Cas! Yes, you do actually! You simply have to hit the mix button, click on Plug Ins & EQ, then bring up the visual EQ and you'll see a low pass filter... here's a video I did that gives a visual on how to get there at about minute 1:30 czcams.com/video/XhNeVEoyifg/video.html ... hope that helps!
Is there any way you guys can help me the EQ. I'm having some trouble knowing what is what and how to manage it. I'd like a one on one on how to get my track mixed. Thanks!

“Production puppies “
*proceeds to show kittens*
😂
I’ve learned more in this video than I did at audio engineering school lmao
I use a Scarlett solo and rode k2 and wenn I make the eq ecsactly like you it sounds really muddy idk why :/
Thank you so much if I make it big I’m shouting you out
ha thanks BallOutChris, glad it was helpful mang!
Imma give it a try 😅
Thank u
Great!
Bro, you're amazing
Live mix 👍
Super
This looks nothing like the garageband I use.. which DAW is this your using in the video?
Love this
on the eco part which one did youu use, a 1/? and wat was your repeat, color, dry and wet set to?
When I press on compressor it doesn’t let me open it up to change it. Why??
DJI UNI THE BEST LOGIC TEACHEER !
What dB should my lead vocals be at? Can they ever be above 0dB or should they always be below?
Loved it
So is mixing all voices at -6.0db too low
But how do edit all tracks at once? Because I punch in when I record
Your awsome
🔥🔥🔥
Dean can you teach us more mixing strategys and bring back dj uni?
ha I guess dj uni has been on vacation... here is a video on mixing vocals (just me no DJ Uni) czcams.com/video/e4C5DxOepsM/video.html
Do you use any vocal presets, (like Bright or Compressed Vocal)
Hey there! No, the moves I show you in this video are by staring from a blank audio track and adding all of the processing yourself :). When you click on those presets then it comes up with a predetermined ("preset") Reverb, EQ, compression, etc. sound... which can be great and it super simple but the techniques I'm showing in this video are how to create your own vocal sound from scratch!
I just subbed.
I’ve been tryna do the copy and paste part but it won’t let me copy it. How do I do it??
Love it
Do you have to go vocal by vocal, or can you mix the whole track at the same time
Could you help with mixing if emailed you a project I want a wide layered sound like $uicideboys/bones
Hello i have a question, I do all of this but the problem I hear a lot of echo is that because I choose the voice “natural” and should’ve left it on normal? Help please
Hey Marco! The effects/processing that I describe in this video is based on started with an empty audio track, meaning no pre sets, we are building from scratch. Either way, if you are hearing too much echo then I would look at my echo plugin or echo slider and tone it down a bit. Hope that helps Marco! -Dean
I been making beats I been spittin bars yeah me and dj uni we been startin fires yeah
We want dj uni back!!
For Mixing: Why would Lead Wet only be right side.
when I did the vocal compression, it did not come right..... it was going high and low
this video is gold though!! Defintiely will play this while i make some stuff all the time for any reason lol
Do we have to use autotune
Hey LoyalTooCold, no you certainly don't have to, it's just a very (very) commonly used tool that gives a particular sound sonically as it not only tunes but adds a bit of sheen/brightness to the vocal... but again, there's no rule that says you have to use it!
Is deEsser not needed ? I recorded a song and used this method but the Esses were overwhelming
Hey whosjet gaming! Yes, you can certainly use DeEssing if you're hearing harsh plosives (S's, T's, P's, etc). Backing up one step, I like to keep an eye on those syllables as I record, taking note any time an S or T or P is super harsh and then recording again and making sure to turn my head slightly away from the microphone so that air from my mouth does goes straight into the mic and overload it. I also make sure to use a wind screen/pop filter! That said, you can still run into harsh sibilant sounds so that's when you would use the DeEsser. Hope that helps! -Dean
We're you stay at bro
how you think everybody want autotune on their vocals?!
Hey Dave! I'm not saying everybody wants autotune on their voice but I am saying more people do want than don't so I show how to do it in this video :)
Bruh where can I hear the song in the background sound like a vibe
What are the ad lib vocals?
Hey Destamoon! Ad lib vocals are the little things you say/sing in-between your main/lead vocal for extra flavor/interest. I usually happens in between the lead phrases so they don't compete with each other. Hope that helps!
@@thesongwritingstudio5783 yup got it, cheers!
what is the song name
On iphone i dont think u have high pass filter???? Pls help
Hey A Cas! Yes, you do actually! You simply have to hit the mix button, click on Plug Ins & EQ, then bring up the visual EQ and you'll see a low pass filter... here's a video I did that gives a visual on how to get there at about minute 1:30 czcams.com/video/XhNeVEoyifg/video.html ... hope that helps!
Is everything in the video built into garageband alone?
Hey Person !, yes it is, all sounds+plugins are completely stock in GB
C’EST PARFAIT
Is there any way you guys can help me the EQ. I'm having some trouble knowing what is what and how to manage it. I'd like a one on one on how to get my track mixed. Thanks!
