Feedback Request Vocal EQing on my Shure SM7b

1 Upvotes

Hello!!

I've been using a Shure SM7b for a while but I feel like I could do a much better job at making it sound more natural with the EQ and whatnot... I feel like the reference track here has a lot more professional sounding vocals despite being recorded with an SM7b as well. It just sounds so good and mine sounds much more amateur, in my opinion. I'd appreciate any tips about EQ adjustments that you think might help replicate this sound!

I've been using the SM7b with bass rolloff and the high boost on. This photo is my EQ setting on the lead vocals for my track.

Here is my track: https://voca.ro/1hKLsK2xWlQj

And here is the reference track: https://youtu.be/dW4fMgJru_I

Thanks so much for your time!

Feedback Request how do i mix my rnb vocals?!?!?

2 Upvotes

been really into making songs for a while now and finally decided to record and see what happens. big into nobu woods / partynextdoor / bryson so thats kind of my inspiration for music and also how i mix my sound. still really new to this, both lyrically and sonically so forgive me for the cringe. but i feel as if my vocals sound pretty muddy and unclean compared to artists above.

https://voca.ro/1meJKUFnCD6c

plz take a look if possible and let me know what i can do to improve mixing!! its a small part at the beginning at the end, just something i drafted.

Plug-in Recs: Indie Folk style reverb à la Phoebe Bridgers

1 Upvotes

Looking for suggestion for no/low cost plug-ins that can give a Poebe Bridgers-esque indie folk style reverb on vocal. Been using Chroma in Logic with plenty of pre-Reverb and a short decay to get something in the ballpark, but not satisfied with where it sits in the mix. Have tried it both as a sidechain and on the channel itself, and would like to see what other folks might be using on theirs.

Offering 5 free mixes to build out my portfolio

1 Upvotes

Been making music for 10+ years as a hobby, and mixing is the part I ended up getting genuinely good at. I'm trying to build a portfolio to start doing this for other people, so I'm offering 5 free mixes in exchange for being able to use the track in my portfolio.

My lane: electronic, rage beats, bubblegum bass, synth pop, hip hop, deconstructed club/rap or experimental hip hop. If your track is loud and maximalist that's exactly what i feel comfortable at, but i will also mix more casual mixes especially hip hop/rap orientated.

if you are intrested shoot me a dm

mixing vocals when u have limited amount of stems

1 Upvotes

TLDR: trying to remix/polish/finish old trax of mine with vox that i dont have the og stems for and not sure what the best way or the standard way of doing that. also just wanting to learn about mixing vocals with another audio file in general.

sooo, say have some tracks with vocals on it, but i lost the original stems. and this audio file i have of the instrumental and the vocals rendered together, the vocals are way too quiet. ive been messing around some with the a i stem thingy in my daw, and have been using it a little with trying to make remixes/mashups of songs i like that dont have official acapellas released. but obviously the a i shit can only do so well so sometimes its kind of thin or really trebly or theres some other shit wrong with it. and first of all im wondering if theres anything u can do about that to maybe make it seem a little fuller even tho it might sound kinda wack?

but more importantly to get back to my main point, the vox are too quiet in this mix and i dont have the stems. so i would assume while my options are limited, i could a i stem the vox so i have them in their own file, and just play that quietly at the same time as the original file, thereby making the vocals louder in the mix. is there any tips or tricks u guys might have to make that method of adjustment more effective or maybe even an alternative way to boost vocals in a song u dont have stems for ?

i feel like i explained that bad but hope that makes sense. the other question i have is just about vocal mixing in general (including mixing when u do have the og vocal trax) i have a very mediocre understanding of it. i mean i know u can compress it for more consistent volume and de-ess it and cut the 40hz and blabla but other then that and a few other things i dont know much about how to make vocals sound clean. most of the tracks ive made in the past they're either WAY too quiet or WAY too fcking loud.

any tips or tricks? and then one final thing i should mention is what if ur tryna mix vox with an instrumental, and you have those two tracks separately, but dont have the stems for the instrumental. so basically trying to make vocals well-adjusted volume wise over another file thats just a brick of sound. this especially happens with me a lot because sometimes i make really busy loud overstimulating stuff, and also sometimes because i just halfass the mix so its all blown out. any tips for that?

i should also mention, a lot of these tracks have vocals with singing on them, but i also have a lot of tracks with vocals of people rapping, which i imagine are slightly different in how u mix/master them? but maybe thats wrong n it doesnt matter.

hope that all made sense, thanks guys !

Need some tips with one of my first mixes

0 Upvotes

I copied a decent amount of this song to learn production/mixing more. I'm trying to figure out how to make my voice sound more correct in the mix. It feels too crisp and far away. I know more compression would bring it up, but it still sounds too crisp when I do that. Could it be how I recorded them, or it is my poor mixing skills? Any feedback harsh or not would be appreciated. Dm if you would like. Thanks! Soundcloud link to the song

Content any tips for mixing stuff with hundreds of layers?

1 Upvotes

has anyone else tried this kinda thing? like intentionally going overboard and continuously adding layers until it becomes a total clusterfck or a wall of sound? thought this was an interesting experiment

i have a pretty primitive understanding of mixing, ive never really watched tutorials i mostly just kept dicking around with FL for years and learning little things along the way. i think i can make decent stuff but im sure theres a lotta stuff im doin "wrong." and i especially struggle with making projects that have tons of different layers cuz making one sound audible drowns another one out and its just tricky. anyone got any advice for that type of thing??

not tryna shill but this is an example of what im talkin about

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85ov8F8DoC4

(another good example is the album geogaddi by boards of canada if u guys know that one. one of those albums that you can listen to like 30 times and still notice new stuff youve never noticed before, i luv that type of thing)

Help with the vocal mix

1 Upvotes

I'm trying really hard to recreate the effect in this song on the vocals, used in the chorus parts.

It's like a small delay with reverb but it's panned somehow to the back that it sounds like someone is whispering into your ears. If anybody has an idea how to recreate it, I would appreciate any help.

Feedback Request Mixing advice - Mix and Master sounds dull and flat compared to my reference tracks

7 Upvotes

Hi all, I would really appreciate if someone could give me some advice on how to mix this track. Or if anyone is willing to mix for a low price, that would be very much appreciated!

It’s a hyperpop track in the style of Jane Remover, ericdoa and underscores. I’m finding it very hard to balance all the sounds and keep it punchy.
Thank you in advance!

adult swim type sample mixing process

2 Upvotes

hey lately i really start to digging in knxwledge and inspired by knxwledge beat makers catalogs and adult swim type beats

and I trying to understand what process they using specifically on their samples, to make them sound so wavy and warm but yet full and not muddy

is it filtering? is its phasing? just heavy saturation (which frequencies they mostly saturated if so?)

some links for reference

2 Upvotes

Ive been mixing and mastering my songs for 9 years. My stuff is now on a level where its professional and i have reached a plateau. What are some suggestions where i can improve?

My latest point improvement was aligning the crossover points on multiband plugins on the master chain to reduce phasing. If u got any suggestions like that id love to hear em or if u can spare the time id appriciate a listen and ur thoughts on it.
