In this video, we have the isolated bass track from Earth Wind and Fire’s song, September played by Verdine White. What a treat to listen to this great bass line from a great bass player from one of the best bands of all time.
I have another video on recording and mixing a choir. I go over my mic setup, running cables, interface, laptop, and a detailed mix review.

In this video, I go over my process and show you how to mix background vocals to spice up your mix. This is one way as there are many ways to achieve great background vocals assuming you are starting with a good source, to begin with. The song I’m working on is called “River” which I co-wrote with the singer.
0:00 Intro
0:28 Quick Listen of Chorus on Track
1:02 Listening to the BGV’s in Solo with and without processing, panning and routing

5:51 Using saturation on the vocals with the Sound Toys Decapitator
6:45 Adding width to the background vocals

In this video, we talk about how to compress electric guitars to smooth out tone and notes that poke out using the Arouser Compressor from Empirical Labs.
In this video, we take an already recorded song and change the tempo, in this case, speed up the tempo. Fast and easy.
