Vocal Mixing Techniques

Give Your Vocals That Major Label Sound

I used to be really frustrated trying to get a vocal sound. I'd work for hours trying to get it to fit into the mix or get the right sound and always seemed to be chasing my tail.

I finally gave up experimenting and went to some of my Los Angeles A-list engineer friends - people that have had hundreds of gold and platinum records (and more than 30 Grammy's) between them - and asked them flat out, "What am I doing wrong here?"

What I got was a series of tips and techniques that were so simple and logical that I thought, "Why don't more people know about this?"

**Now I've compiled the best of those techniques into a short course simply called Vocal Mixing Techniques.**

If you have questions about your mix like:

Why doesn't the EQ that I put on the vocal make it sound better?
Am I compressing the vocal the right way for the song?
How can I cover up that pitchy vocal track?
How can I give the vocal some ambience, yet not make it sound effected?

...then this course is for you.

Each one of these questions and a lot more are addressed in the course, plus I'll also show you some excellent techniques for background vocals that you can use right away as well, such as:

The best way to pan background vocals (especially when there are lots of layers) so they don't get in the way of the lead
How to make thin background vocals sound bigger and beefier.

Plus, there's more!

As a bonus, I’ve also included several excellent vocal recording techniques as well. These are designed to help you not only get the best performance out of a singer, but keep it consistent so it's easy to mix as well.

AND, I've also included a downloadable PDF summary for all of the above techniques so that you can easily refer to them the next time you’re doing a session.
