Vocal EQ - How to Mix Live Vocals (feat. Jon Thurlow 'Shout Your Name')

Показать описание

Be the vocal clarity hero on your worship team. Learn how to mix live vocals with my simple, proven EQ method.

Watch as I walk you through the steps, and then demonstrate with real live vocal performances from Jon Thurlow's "Shout Your Name," both with Jon's vocal and background vocals.

There are a lot of videos out there on how to EQ vocals, but how many of them are with a song that you would actually play on your worship team? Mixing for worship requires clean, clear vocals that are intelligible and feel great in a big, full mix, and in a quiet gentle moment. Mixing vocals with EQ is the first step in getting clean, clear vocals, and leave muddy vocals behind.

"Nobody leaves humming the kick drum."
Classic one.

WOW! I learned more in this 6 minute video than a whole year In college studying audio production. Thank you for the help!

A little love for us on traditional mixers and equipment. All of my church sound equipment is Peavey brand from 1992-1993 and works very well.

Wow. This gives me new perspective on eq for vocals. Thanks.

The best part of this video is hearing these different singers one after the other and really being able to tell how drastically different their voices are. Someone needs a video on this same format for studio recording.

Dude... Just what I needed for mixing live with Behringer XR 12! When I saw the UI in the start of the video it felt like all my problems just went away. Thanks a bunch! 👍

Thanks a lot for this tutorial. May the Lord take you and your ministry into another, new and higher dimension!

I like how you are not afraid of setting the HPF and cutting the mid low aggressively. As an amature novice engineer I always think twice about cutting more than 5dB because that's what other people say - don't cut more than 5dB. The result was that this untamed low mid resonance which wouldn't go away no matter what I do. I'm going back to church this Sunday to re-set the EQ for vocals to see how it goes. Thank you!

Thank so much for doing this, love all your lessons, will definitely help with the worship - David from India. God Bless!

Great video, perfect examples. Every vocalist on the planet should watch this video so they can communicate with engineers. Every engineer on the planet should watch it too so the vocalists won't have to tell them what needs to be done.

Best vocal eq video I've seen yet! This is exactly what I ultimately finished with on my EQ. I have designated mics for our karaoke sessions as well, male and female. So I don't have to constantly eq for each ha, which I did early on before spending a boat load of time researching sound engineering :D

Thanks for this! Always helps knowing I'm on the right path!

Thank you for all of the super digestible knowledge. I’ve got one that may be fun that I don’t think you’ve covered yet. How to mix vocals when you have a few singers in different registers or octaves. For example, you have 4 singers and a piano. One alto lead, tenor...you get it. Oh, also, I would love to see you create a playlist on mic placements with an emphasis on miking a grand piano! Vocals with a baby grand are by far the most common scenario for me and probably many others from small congregations. You could also add some meat to the playlist with a section on deciphering mic specs and why they’re important. Thanks again!! Super helpful channel for myself and those that I’m trying to educate.
