The reason you do this is because you have to lower the volume of everything to make sure nothing reaches 0db, and if you were to lower the volume without doing this first, you would have a hard time hearing everything you are trying to mix since it would be at a lower volume, plus its just overall lower volume. You start off by adding a limiter to all your vocals to increase the volume to the highest you can without clipping Then go on the master channel and add a Fruity Limiter, simply raise the gain until the highest wave peek is just barley nipping 0db.Īnd its as simple as that. If you have more voices to raise and your volume is getting near 0db then lower the beat further and restart the steps I just said.Īfter you have the beat and vocal volumes right you are almost done Now take each vocal one at a time and raise the UP AND DOWN mixer volume knobs until your vocals sound like they are mixed into the beat, but make sure nothing is going above 0db. It doesn't really matter just make sure its not close to 0db.
If you only have a few vocals then just put the beat around -6 db or lower. The more vocals you have the lower you have to have your beat because your vocals will raise the volume if you have to many. Take the beat you are using and raise the volume or lower it to about -6 or lower db depending on how many vocals you have. I am talking about the STRAIT UP AND DOWN volume knobs on the mixer, turn down the vocal channels all the way down. (oh make sure you have fruity limiter removed from the master channel because my Fl Studio opens up with it activated and I forget about it). Now turn all the volume knobs on the mixer channels down besides the master channel. Raise the gain until the highest sound wave peek is just about to nip the green line at 0db.ĭo this for all of your vocals to make sure your vocals are loud.
I am only explaining the volume part since you are just want to know about volume. Then send each vocal to a channel on the mixer so you can add effects for each vocal What I actually do is like a 3 step process, I raise the volume then lower it then raise it again
Obviously make sure before you start recording that your voice is not going over 0 db. The easiest/best way to do it is like this. I am looking to mix/master people's stuff for free for practice
