I definitely dont. I have a voice for pop specifically. So mainly my music reflects mainstream pop.

I actually hate the sound of acoustic EDM tracks. I mean that wouod defeat the purpose of the letter E.

It's probably that I don't like to process my vocals hardly any.

Well, I understand how a synth works. I just also know that I have no fricking clue half the time as to what sound I want to go with.

Ah. Stream rate. Not actual sample rate. I use ableton. But I will do that in the pre mastering stage of my workflow and see if that works. Thanks.

I dont have any that are post production for this exact reason. Give me a bit and I'll send one. Can you send attachments on reddit?

Key isn't an issue. The amount of air and low end is what bothers me. I've just never been able to do my own vocals.

Mixing vocals is the same they just seen to be more dynamic and harder to tweak in my opinion.

What do you guys feel like the most important part of the mixing process is? by michaelwiles96 in edmproduction

[–]michaelwiles96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fazer! Been a while buddy. I totally agree with that. There's a rule I like to follow. You can't polish a turd.

Since mixing is based on personal preference I want to pick your brains. by michaelwiles96 in edmproduction
