![]() I’m actually going to leave those alone for now, we’ll talk about them later.īut then we’re going to look at the free lead audio track. It’s just a mono audio track, and I’m going to go through some options for you. Then we’ve got a focus track down here that we’ll talk about in the mix. So, here’s the song as it was thrown together. Mixed this vocal at this section, and let’s take a listen to that. Pretty cool, right? So, moving from that plug-in, I’m going to leave it up here on the screen, and we’re going to talk about each of the modules and how you can accomplish that with some free or stock plug-ins.Īctually, I lie. The only one I’m going to use is the Pro-Q 2, and that’s only because I know it for time’s sake and tutorials sake. I know all the keyboard shortcuts, but you can accomplish the same exact moves with your stock EQ, I guarantee it. So, first thing out of the gate, what we looked at was the compression, and the low-cut filter here. So, this filter that was dialed in to about 95 or 100 or so, if you watch the Waves video, they talk about having a little bit of a bump in the filter, and what that means is that on this low-cut/high-pass filter, if we engage that, there’s a little bit of a bump there. So, the Q all the way at the * position would be just flat, and then it drops off. So, what they’ve done is they’ve increased that so there’s a gain increase at the tail end of the filter. So, if we take that, and we kind of scoop up on his vocal, we’re going to get rid of the lows, but we’re also going to be boosting a little bit where we begin the cut. Let’s put it in solo, and we’re just going to scoop this up to that same frequency. So you can see how we’re cutting all of the junk down low that we don’t need. Someone accidentally hits the microphone and get a blast of low-frequencies, step on the mic, air conditioning rumble, any of that stuff that’s just taking up headroom, we don’t need it, it’s not contributing to the vocal sound, so we’re just going to get rid of it, and we’ve got this little bit of a bump there. Pro-Q 2 has an analyzer, so we can see there’s not really much happening before 120-150 there, but it’s totally a taste thing. ![]()
