Very informative. I think this channel will take off! keep it up.

[SoundsInMyMind]

so happy to have found your channel. Thanks so much

The unison technology only applies to the 610 in your vocal chain. All the other affects will still be recorded in real time but the 610 will change the impedance of the Apollo to match that of the 610 hardware unit.

This is extremely helpful. But I wonder if by any chance you can make an updated version of this video with the new Luna Recording System? Thank you in advance!

[theladyproducer]

Thank you sir!!! This helped me tremendously!!!!

Hi Nolan this is another awesome video. I like how you explain things and simplify these short and to the point videos! It makes them very interesting! The question I have for you is after you set up the VOX chain in the Apollo Console and then decide to print into logic, what plug-ins would you use in logic on the vocal channel strip, besides busing the reverb and any time based effects in Logic? Thx in advance

[JonathanLandon-dn]

Great video and very helpful tips! Quick question - what do you think about including the UAD SSL 4000 E channel strip into this vocal chain (and maybe using that built-in compressor in place of one of the two you mention in your serial compression selections)? I see that you already add the Pultec Pro EQ, but I am wondering if the SSL might be another way to go (or if you feel it is unnecessary in the chain you suggest). I guess I could add it to my vocals as a logic pro plugin (I also have the Brainworx SSL E), but I would prefer to do all of my vocal processing in COnsole and only add reverb to the final version in Logic. Thanks in advance for your thoughts!!

thank you that tip was very helpful to me

[dlofton]

Dope Vocal chain for sure. Just made a fire song 🔥🔥

[alexandergeiger]

Awesome, thanks a lot man! I just wondered where your 610-B went... it's not shown in the inserts list in the analog 1 channel yet the window of the preamp shows it's on it (see 4:25)

[Hesinsky]

I have a question, do you recording your vocals with effects like eq and comp on your console app ?, or is it just a setting and then you mix it later ?

[luddiamant]

Shouldnt´t be EQ before the compressors? Thanks for your video!

[canaldomarreiro]

Nice video ! What reverb do you recommend?

[billysilverio]

Can you use the Apollo interface on pc? I've heard That doesn't run properly.

[necithehustlers]

Hey man, such a good videos, i just need to ask you when i chose UAD Monitoring i cant hear plugins that i put on insert, can u help me, thanks

[smokiest]

Hi, im planning to buy an Apollo audio interface. Ill make a rap songs so only the mic im thinking to plug in. So Apollo solo is a good choice or not ? Thanks.

[LundDRapMusik]

nice video i would wish you would get rid of some of the Room, ind your studio, so you would get the Review of what they do more Clearly. but it was i nice video.

Hey, I have the Apollo solo so far. It sounds pretty good but with autotune I wanted to have extra autotune sound on it am I supposed to mess with presets? I swear I’ve tried everything.

[houseofgraceworship]

Is it okay to constantly push the Apollo that hard? I see u have the gain turned all the way

[geraldocarvalho]

Is this preset just for recording the vocal?
