Using Compression On Vocals For Beginners - RecordingRevolution.com

Thankx bro this helps out alot

Sound compression best explained !

Gosh what a great video!

Great tutorial, simply understood. God bless you

Fantastic video - best I’ve seen on compression …hit that subscribe button

Wow! Wat a teacher! 🔥

Great tutorial. Thank you.

THANK YOU. JUST USED THIS TO HELP AN ARTIST UNDERSTAND. HIGH 5 BRUH.

If you really want to visualise what's happening, route the audio from this track as an input to an empty track and record it, that will show you the new compressed waveform. You'll be able to visibly see how much you're evening things up. If the peaks look squared off, your ratio is probably set too high, sometimes though, that might work for your particular vocal, never say never!

Thank You!

Simply the best, THANKS🙏

what every SINGLE movie needs

learned a lot from this!

Now I understand compression. I just used to add it because I knew I was supposed to to make vocals sound better. I made it sound better just by trial and error not knowing what attack or anything was 😂.

Very good. This helped me and I've been singing professionally for 25 years. Nice to be reminded.

Best into to compression tutorial ever. Big ups!

Great Teaching

Brilliant man. Just what I needed. You just changed my fortunes. Thanks from Robin Rowley

Awesome, thanks man.

What about “knee”.?

I am confused, what is the difference with compression and normalization. it looks the same for me! 😒

Thank you I would want every learner to SUBSCRIBE TO THIS CHANNEL SOO MUCH HELP THANK YOU AGAIN GOD BLESS YOU

So glad I came across this video! I would say I’m getting comfortable tracking and leading up to mixing and this video made the concept of compression so easy to try and learn. I appreciate that you explained the plug in buttons and what they do. There wasn’t filler in the video for the sake of pushing time which I appreciate. Thank you!

Yooooo… you’re a blessing. SuhhhScribed

I can't tell you the number of compression vids I've watched. I wish I would've listened to this one first. Would t have needed any others.

Amazing, you made that so understandable and intuitive. I really appreciate your help, thank you.

there are so many guides for stuff that just... tell you what something does or is supposed to do. but here, we're being taken around the compressor, understanding what each knob is doing/changing and how it affects the mix. and, in a way, we're being told the order of knobs to be tweaked for compression, so like i gotta start with the threshold first, then ratio, then attack and release, then makeup gain. so many complex things can be simplified by just giving people a checklist of what to do first; i know it's not always that simple but in this case it works very well. perfect explanation thank you so much!

Great video, i wish I found this 2 years ago 😁

you have great teaching skills everyone with talent is not a teacher but you get the point across very well.

Thanks my friend.........

Great vid

Excellent!

Is this compressor outdated? In other words, are there newer plug-ins that have advanced this concept? I own this and use it, but am wondering if I am using far outdated technology

Hey Graham, I’ve been following you for a while now and I’m I bet u still get comments after 5 years, do you still have the comprehension check list available? If so can you email it to me please. Thx.

Helped me a lot!! Thanks mate!!

This is the best compression video I’ve seen. Thanks for this

Dude, thank you so much for this. I’ve watched maybe 20 videos on compression and this is the first one to actually break it down the way I needed

This video is so great 🔥🔥🔥

still helpfull 4 years later and not confusing and its very simple

a great explanation

👌

EXCELLENT - finally makes sense. THANK YOU!!!

I can’t believe I understand this. You’re a good teacher.

I use MIxPad, which compressor should I use? Completely confused, not technical at all. Female, angelic, very high soprano, singing low too.

One of the best people who explain simply and accurately what a compressor is and how it works 👌
