Thank you all for watching. The Weeknd Vocal Chain is by far the most simple hardware outboard vocal chain I've seen thus far. Crazy right!

[CaldoHits]

Illangelo used to use Cubase but he has since moved to Ableton. After Hours was recorded and mixed in Ableton as well.

The Weeknd would sound great through any microphone and pre amp. Performance triumphs any expensive gear.

Bro that Townsend is actually crazy! It's weird you have to record vocals in stereo, but the results are just fire. Excited to hear your thoughts on it! Love these vocal chain videos man. I'd love to see Lecraes vocal chain next! Or anyone from 116 really

I always tell people there's ways to get pro sounding vocals for not a lot of money.
1. Good vocalist - The first thing you have to start with is a vocalist who can actually vocalize/sing....well.
2. flat mic - You want a mic that flat across the middle for voice. The upper and lower freq. are outside the range of most voices. Unless you're singing in basso-profundo, which most humans can't physically do.
You also want your mic to be as silent as possible. Low self noise. Any mic that can handle 120db is fine for vocals.
From there it's a matter of compression, EQ and what ever sound effects.
You can do all of this and well for 1000-1500.
The interfaces all record the same to the computer. What's different in them is the pre-amp quality and coloring of the sound before. But once all that is done, the computer record all interfaces the same.
You can get a good focusrite for 200, warm audio 47-jr and some effect plug-ins.

My G, this video is exactly what I was looking for. You're the realest!

[ThisIsVersatile]

Should recreate the chains in a daw via video! 😁

[Bashanvibe]

I live by it’s not about the equipment but the knowledge you have of the equipment!!! Can you maximize what you have and make it a big deal? I’ve sold tracks from only using Roland Fantom G6 back when it first came out!!! That was my only source of making music I didn’t have a lab like I do now!!!

[issamenuene]

do eazy macs vocal chain, i wanna know what hes using to drop his pitch and bring it back up in real time

[tristanrenaud]

Now he only uses an SM7b for a microphone. After Hours (his biggest album) was SM7B - Apollo - Laptop. I recommend people watching Carlo’s (illangelo) Mix With the Masters where he breaks down the tracks of 2 songs from that album and runs through every plug-in and setting in Abel’s voice. 🫡🫡

Interesting info .
Thanks for doing the video.
Just one comment. While I do agree that Elam 251 is in your face type of mic. I wouldn’t apply same to u67 . It’s completely different and what ever it is, it’s definitely not in your face type off sound . Its more like laidback type of sound . Some people would call it warm and some would call it muddy depending on taste . It’s definitely more pronounced on lower mid frequencies..

The v67 is half-price in England. I wasn't expecting that.

[wardenclyffeentertainment]

I have the sphere and asked you about it some time ago. Can't wait to find out your thoughts!! Keep me up!

[takeiteasy]

Now he using mostly sm7b + Apollo on a few last albums

[LesVegasMusic]

Hey Archie B. What site are you getting this info from? Can you reply with the link to the page featured in the video? Thanks!

[kj-yrkb]

love these vids! anyway you could discuss either an MGK vocal chain or Morgan Wallen vocal chain? or both!!

[i.g.onthebeat]

Love the videos bro can you do one on the warm audio 8000 Sony replica?

[NiniRockX]

In the end, it's his voice and the music that counts.
I would even listen to him without all the stuff

[LaSaint.X]

A seddy Hendrix vocal chain would be cool to see

[alphasupreme]

I'm owing a u87 is it worth upgrading to the u67?
